I have several PDF files, which some sentences are already highlighted through Abobe PDF. |

PDF++ has a command called "Extract & copy annotations in this PDF". It will copy the annotations in the current PDF file according to the copy format (ex. "Quote in callout") & display text format (ex. "Title & page") specified in the toolbar. |

That's what I exactly want. Thank you. It seems that all features are useful and I love those, but I couldn't easily find a way to utilize them. I believe README and DOCS can be improved. I hope to fully utilize all features that you built! |

Yeah, I know I need to update the docs but just can't find time for that... Sorry for the inconvenience! |

One quick question. Is there a way to extract highlights in the same order (reading perspective) in a double-column PDF? It seems that it orders the highlights with the location. For example, if highlights are located as below, it shows the highlights with the following order: C -> A -> D -> B. But I want to extract highlights with the order: A -> B -> C -> D. |

It's currently not supported, but it's a good suggestion, thanks! It's now tracked at #176. |

Can this be used for PDF++ highlight links? If not, how is this possible? |

To use a custom format, go to the PDF++ settings and create a new one as you wish.
