Hello Friends,
I'm going to start learning something new and it will require a lot of effort & time, as the study spans various online materials books/videos/blogs/posts, etc.
Till now I have been making my notes in Word document and converting to PDF for portability. It was manageable as notes were just typed text & images.
I'm looking for suggestions to see what others here use to manage their study notes comprising of text, images & videos.
Any idea/suggestion is welcome and will be useful.
Thanks, Grr

WindowsOffice - the program is a free analogue with support for the Russian language, a well-known package from Microsoft, a good replacement for Word and Excel. Here is a portable version of different editions, read the details in the documentation. You can work with almost all currently known document formats, you can add a document by dragging and dropping, you can embed formulas, graphically elements, links and everything else like your older brother.

STDU Viewer has a multilingual interface. You can currently select English, Russian or French. The STDU Viewer interface can be translated into your language by changing the lines in an external xml resource.
