GoodNotes Integration Tips:

  1. Copy/Paste: Highlight the table above, copy, and paste directly into a blank GoodNotes page; it will convert into a native GoodNotes table.
  2. Color Coding: Use the GoodNotes Highlighter tool to mark "Status" columns (e.g., Green for Paid, Yellow for Pending).
  3. Annotations: Use the "Lasso Tool" to move the table or resize it to fit your digital planner spread.
  4. Formatting: Use the GoodNotes table settings to adjust row height to give yourself enough space to handwrite your values if not using the text tool.
