My wife has a PRS 700 and has put a lot of PDFs on it all semester. She also has made heavy use of annotations in those PDFs, I think ~1600 notes in total. With all the PDFs and notes, plus a few purchased text books the reader is now taking a long time to start up. Since she is done with the semester she wants to move all the PDFs and textbooks to a SD card, and keep the notes intact, in order to start fresh next semester with the main memory, plus hopefully have it start up quicker too.

I have looked at the reader software and have seen no way to do this, drag and drop doesn't seem to work from main memory to memory card. I also have Calibre and have seen no way to do this, plus if memory serves me right it doesn't support annotations anyway. My question is does anyone know of a relatively simple way to do this transfer, and keep notes intact (this is a must)? Would simply copying the entire file structure as is work?
