Hello all,

I'm having some issues (basically I can't get it done

) exporting notes from my Kindle Touch and merging them into the original document.

That's the scenario. My dad wrote a novel and I just read the draft on my kindle touch. The original format of the draft is MS Word. I use Calibre to manage my book collection and I added this novel to the collection. I converted it to .mobi, read it using my kindle and added notes (about 1200). I would like now to merge these notes to the .mobi (or word) file so that my dad can read them. My goal is to merge the .mobi file with the notes or merge the notes into the .rtf document as MS Word notes.

I followed the great guide by GRiker (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...749#post817749) and successfully fetched the notes from my kindle. Now I have the "Moira - Angel Comas.mbp" file, along with "My clippings.txt" file and the original document (.mobi). But there is no way (or at least, I can't find it) to merge both documents into a single one.

I've browsed this forum and googled this issue, but haven't found a solution. Do you have any ideas, any pointers?

Thank you very much
