syncing annotations, anyone?

picco · 07-26-2012, 09:21 AM

Hi all,

I've noticed an experimental "Fetch annotations" function in Calibre, can anyone report their experiences with that? Which device/format is best for syncing annotations to/from a PC? Does it apply to highlights? bookmarks? handwritten vs. typed notes?

I'd like to use pdf but can adapt to converting to epub.

Both positive and negative experiences are welcome!

I have tried it with the Kobo Touch and ePubs. It copies all the the bookmarks and annotations and adds them to the comments in the library. It works, but I don't really like the results. Luckily, I don't really need to use it.
