I think the experimental "fetch annotations" function isn't functioning entirely correctly yet. Just tried it, and for one book it only put *part* of the annotations in the comment field.


Incidentally, on the reader itself (Aura), the annotations and bookmarks are often displayed in a weird order. E.g. a bookmark placed on page 30 will sometimes sit before or between highlights from page 20 in the list the Aura displays to me. Really rather annoying.

Is there an easy way to read and edit the xml files, or extract just the annotations from it? I'm not used to editing xml and all the xml codes are kind of distracting. I'd like an easy way just to get the highlighted texts and annotations in a simpler word processor.
