That's what I was expecting, but as I said, that isn't what is happening. Even when I manually delete each annotation before removing the epub file, they're back when I sideload the new version of the book. I tried deleting the annotations manually, then adding new highlights in different spots, and after the book is replaced I get both sets of annotations being reinstalled.

At this point, the book isn't substantially changing, so I haven't come across the problem of the annotations being put back in the wrong place.

Thanks for that, Geoff. I didn't know about the second register of annotations.

When you say to create an "ordinary file", is that like a TXT file? With or without a filetype extension?
