I scanned a few pages from a book and I need to highlight some portions of the text/add notes with a tablet. Is there a free tool who would allow me to do that without converting everything to OCR? (wonky formatting, converting to ocr would be a waste of time)

All the files are .jpg images

A web-based solution that allows annotating images (and other formats) is A.nnotate. 30 pages per month are free. See http://a.nnotate.com/index.html.

An app with similar functions is Skitch: http://evernote.com/skitch/getting_started/android/#2

Greenshot should do what you want. It's primarily designed to interact with screenshots, but you can edit existing images with it by selecting 'Open image from file' from its menu. Has highlight, annotate and obfuscate options, and you can do basic drawing using built-in shapes.

Whoops. No it's not. Only read the text of the question, didn't think about where I was... If OP definitely wants web-based then I can remove my answer. – J-X320 Feb 5 at 14:19
If it gets down voted, otherwise just leave it there. – Jacob Jan Tuinstra Feb 5 at 14:29
