I described that it is possible to move, rename and even split a pdf file with sketches if the splitting point is beyond the page of last skech in original pdf. But of course it is not for a general user. You have to know what you do.

I do not know where annotations, bookmarks, etc. are stored, it seems to me they are lost after document rename/move, which is not very good. But I use mostly the sketches, so for me it is not a big problem.
Ah - then I misunderstood you, sorry (pdf splitting)
I agree that splitting a pdf file after annotating it is a somewhat exotic use case.
However - moving a file after annotating it, and then continuing work on it, is not - and even basic users should be able to do this (imho both via boox functionality and on PC).
I therefore propose to follow Irex's example, as I deem it sufficiently obvious even for non-technical users (and comes cheap, if they already have 1 DB/document )

I just tested copying the respective files in the .onyx directory along with the document on the PC.
It worked - all annotations (scribbles and otherwise) were present.
Bookmarks on the other hand were lost - so they seem to be stored someplace else.
