I use OneNote as my virtual notepad. I love being able to have my notes in whatever type of office doc, pdf, etc. sync'd and available in my SkyDrive.
I recently had an issue with math notes that caused Mathematica1 font to display as a unknown character (small rectangle which is the default character when an app cannot find the font) as seen in here.
I resolved the font issue by using Mathematica1Mono instead (bottom of graphic), however the beneficial positive outcome of this issue lies in my stumbling upon a Math library for OneNote and Word 2013 in my search for a resolution.
