    More praise for Skim it is the nicest, coolest app I have *ever had* It shames and destroys the mainstream cross platform pdf reader and also apple's own pitiful offering. It is designed for real people with annotating, highlighting, bookmarks and snapshots being implemented in a super sensible and intuitive way. It's helped me so much.

    This program rocks! It allowed me to trim all the black margins off my scanned PDFs, and it makes reading documents and taking notes much easier. Thanks!

    This and Keynote are the two applications keeping me from switching entirely to Linux

    I can write a note on the side, like I would with pencil. Wit Apple's Preview, I can only add a little icon that tells me there is a note, but not what it says (clumsy to use). Can still open the doc in preview without seeing notes, so I can print a clean document if I want to. great.

    This program is absolutely fantastic. It does everything it promises, it is much better than Adobe Reader (which is a surprise) in both stability and speed. And even more surprising for third party software, I haven't had any compatibility issues. It is extremely fast in Snow Leopard since it is one of the very few 64 bit apps available

    I used Skim in the past and found it much better than other annotation software (way less bloated than Acrobat, definitely).

    Been using this for a long time on a quite regular basis. Keeps getting better and better. Very happy with the recent addition of column-based selection.

    Great for editing and refreshing Latex files using MacVim and viewing in Skim. Lots of helpful customizations via the wiki. Love it.
