I have just started working with Ubuntu.

My work includes a lot of books that to be read. Hence while reading, I need to –comment & highlight the characters in the form of PDF & DJVU file.

I have installed Document Viewer and qpdfviewer. But both of these softwares do not have this option.

I can't find any other in Ubuntu software updater. So Please suggest me some softwares according to my needs.

Yes, you can comment in Document Viewer(or evince), but I didn't find any entries for highlighting. Here is how to add a comment in Document Viewer(or annotation):

In the Document Viewer, you may have a side pane, or you can manually open it by pressing F9

In the Side Pane, there is a few options on the top, just like this:

Then you can select the option of Annotations, as shown in the picture. Then select the Add button.

Click on the Pen button to add one.

It will pop out a little white cross, click on anywhere on the document to start comment, or add an Annotation.

For the Highlighting function, you need to ask other people.
