I want to buy an e-reader (if it allows me what I want to do with it) that lets me highlight relevant passages (i don't write notes so a stylus based product isn't needed) and then once i finish the book i can hit select all highlighted and copy and paste it into a pdf or word.
Is there a program that does this? Does it work on only one brand of e-book reader? Are the stylus based e-book readers the only ones with this function? is a tablet the only thing that can do this? help would be appreciated.
As far as I'm aware, any device that can use the Google Play Books app will work.

Google Play Books saves all highlighted text into a Google Doc file saved in your Google Drive. https://lifehacker.com/google-play-b...ive-1718795151
