Technologies are generally provided for converting handwritten ink input to text annotations. A user may provide handwritten ink input to content displayed on a computing device to edit and mark up the content. The ink input may be provided employing touch or an electronic stylus on a user interface of the computing device to edit the content. The ink input may be processed to identify insertion of comments, deletion of text, and to identify insertion of markup symbols and shapes. The ink input may be converted to a text annotation based on a context of the ink input and a grammar and proofreading analysis. The text annotation may be displayed in an annotation view. The ink input may be converted periodically after predefined periods of time and upon detection of selection of a conversion button to activate conversion of the ink input.
