Yes, the laws may of course differ between countries. Here in Sweden the laws says you can make a copy or backup but only for private use. Don't know if it applies to ebooks though.
I think I will start out with the DE option. I also discovered the kobo utility option to delete empty DE annotation files. So the only ones that remains would be the one to backup.
Sorry, just to be clear about the practical stuff about the user partition backup and the database backup.
Will a normal complete folder copy of what's visible on the device select enough? And when copying back to device, do I just replace everything that is visible on the new/factory reset device? And then just run the device as normal?
Regarding database, I've set the kobo utilities to backup and compress the database automatically. Is that results a "full" database that I can use to dump the bookmark table to file with SQLite? And practically, how do you load the file back into the database on the device, with SQLite as well? Hmm... why not just use the the whole backuped database from the beginning then? I probably misunderstood something here. And does this means that the bookmark table contains the actual annotations etc?
Thanks for your patience. I like to learn and do things by myself. Slowly, step by step I get there... :-)
