I looked at the user manual, and it looks to be pretty much the same system as on the Touch Lux ereaders (at least the UI does). If so, then highlights, annotations and scribbles are stored in a custom format outside of the ebook. You can get at the files, but I don't think you can just import them into some program on a desktop. They are meant purely for use within the reading app on the device.

The device comes with many dictionaries. However, they are in a custom format. There are commercial dictionaries available at the Obreey ebookstore that will work on PocketBook devices. However, the selection is not that great outside of the main languages (English, Russian, German and French). If you needed, say, a Polish to English dictionary, you'd probably be out of luck. PocketBook have provided a Windows-only program for converting open dictionary formats to their custom format, so you can create your own. The problem is in finding a reasonable source dictionary that is in one of the open formats.
