Hallo,

sometimes I get some papers or homework of students to proof read it as pdf. 
Then I use jarnal 
(http://www.dklevine.com/general/software/tc1000/jarnal.htm). This tool can 
open a pdf-file and lays it as picture in the background (it works also with 
multi pages). I can place my remarks on it and export it as pdf. Perhaps this 
helps you... I found no better solution.

If you are willing to use wine and non-free (speech) software, the following 
link could help you:

tschau
