One Note Lawyer

I am an attorney. I work with a team of people to process certain original
documents. I would like to attach or affix computer notes to particular
locations on the documents, or to the side of the documents.

I want to attach notes such as: "Ask witness X about this notation."

and I would like to post links in the notes to particular other locations in
particular other notes.

I want the notes preserved, in situ, in particular locations on top of or at
the side of, the actual documents.

Is there a way to do this with One Note.

I use note flags. There like to do items. You put them directly in your
notes. Later using the said tool, all your to-dos or a subset based on
area of the notebook display in a list. Hope this helped.

Links within OneNote to other locations/pages/sections within OneNote are
not available in the current version; this is a common request for V2
and the MS OneNote dev team is *well* aware of it ;)

Are you otherwise using OneNote for organizing these documents? Are
these the original documents (in Word format) or scanned copies of
documents (in PDF, TIFF or MDI format)?

If the former, I would use the Comment feature of Word to attach notes to
specific paragraphs, etc. Remember to delete the comments and
annotations before sending to the other lawyers ;)

If the latter, you can insert the scanned images into OneNote and then
add your comments and note flags. There is a great third party utility
(http://www.analogreality.com/OneNotePowerToys/OneNoteImageWriter.htm)
which can be used to insert documents into OneNote for further
notes/comments.

Both of these should allow the comments to stay with their locations
within the documents.
