Apple pencil

A thousand pardons. You are correct. However, the directions do not play out upon application. I open an email, I hit reply and it says to tap in the body of the email and tap on the <. When I tap in the body of the email, < doesn’t appear. The pencil converts whatever you draw to text. It doesn’t keep your markings, like if I wanted to circle a word or sentence or underline something. It will take that marking and convert it to text. I don’t want that. I want to be able to mark it up, make notes, circle things, underline things, whatever and then send it to someone just as I’ve marked it.

Doesn't help me. I need to know about emails and emails only.

Tried that doesn’t do anything. I mean it makes no mark now. Double tap in the email reply and I get a horizontal menu: cut, paste, insert, add document, etc.
