LiquidText is an incredibly flexible tool: adding comments to your texts can be done in a variety of ways — text, images, notes. Then, all these elements are indexed for later usage. Oddly enough, I didn't try Liquid Text so I am going to have to check that out. I tried Foxit PDF which had a mediocre writing engine with the Apple Pencil. For reading, however, it seemed quite clean.
App Description
*** Named “Most Innovative iPad App of the Year” by Apple App Store ***
LiquidText offers a fast, natural way to review, gather, and organize information across all your documents and webpages—then apply the results to writing reports, meeting prep, or simply studying. Pull out key facts and connect them together, squeeze a document to compare sections, draw a line to connect ideas in different documents, comment on multiple pages at once, build upon your thoughts, and much more.
