I've never used a PDF reader that didn't embed its annotations/highlights in the PDF, and the only PDF reader I know of that does that is Skim, which runs on MacOS, see Annotating PDFs in OS X w/o modifying the file

That's not a bug, it's a feature

If you add a file to an existing book via the Add Books drop down option Add file to selected book record it does not and never has deleted the file. Drag-drop of a file into Book Details is the same operation.

Added: If you're reading/annotating the PDFs on the same desktop where the library is kept, why are you exporting the PDF files, why not read and annotate the PDFs in the library?
