Every highlight, note, and bookmark lives in one place. Filter by chapter or colour; export to JSON; forge cards from any selection.

Six card templates

The loop

From open PDF to study deck in five steps

Open the reader

Pick the Bennett 9e PDF once. The file hash is remembered locally; re-opening restores your annotations and last-read page automatically.

Read and mark

Highlight testable facts, definitions, formulae, and confusions. Add a sticky note for any 30-second reflection that won't fit in the margin.

Review the Notebook

Filter by chapter or colour. Spot-check that highlights captured the right concept. Edit notes inline if OCR mangled the text.

Forge cards

Select any subset, pick template families, hit Forge. One highlight produces 1–3 mixed cards (definition / cloze / application etc.).

Drill or sit a practice exam

Cards land in your local deck. Forge a 25/50/100-question MC simulator the same shape as Kriegler's online tests; distractors mined from sibling highlights.

Why a reader + notebook beats printing the whole book

Kriegler says "about 45 of 50 questions come from the review sheet β€” the other 5 from online material or the book." This workflow targets that 10%: capture exactly the passages you flag as test-relevant, convert them into varied multiple-choice items, and accumulate them as the term progresses. Every highlight in May still feeds Test 5 in July.
