Your Kobo Stylus lets you write on your Kobo Sage or Kobo Elipsa's screen. For example, if you’re reading a cookbook, you might want to jot notes on the margins of the page.

You can even use the built-in notebook feature to write notes and convert them to text.

You can use Kobo Stylus to make notes on these file formats:

• ePub (.epub)
• Kobo ePub (.kepub)
• Non-protected PDF files
