Hi Dulin
Thanks for the below explanations.
Can you be a little more clearer about highlights?
What if we highlight something but we do not attach any comments? That will result in an image file, right?
How easy is the copy and paste process? I am thinking about the following: select the text, copy the text into the memory(Ctrl-C like) highlight and paste the just copied text into the note that I assume will pop up when you highlight something....how does this work?
Thanks

so we are clear
Annotation is highlighting and making a note about the highlight.
Scribbling/Margin writing is writing directly on the page.
Note is copying a section, exiting the document, enter the "Notes" function, starting a note, paste the copied bit into the note and then making remarks about that pasted portion and saving the note.
Scribbling is also a separate note function for writing grocery lists, journals,drawings etc. you can start a scribble , add pages as your scribble grows and go into the menu select tools and "export scribble"
Annotations and Scibbles are stored in a SQL database. you can find them when the device is plugged in to the computer.
The Annotations will be .SKETCH files located in the .onyx folder next to the thumbs.db. Margin writing is kept in this db.
if you export a scribble you will find it in the form of a PNG in the notes folder in a nested folder with the name of the scribble along with the .SKETCH
If you copy and paste into a NOTE that will be found in a folder called text editor as a txt file. this of course is easily transferred off the device for use in Word etc. It does lose some formatting like spaces though.
in order to export those items that are .sketch file you need something like SQL LITE for the db or a HEX editor like UltraEdit since they are hex files
