What is also surprising to me is that the TOC in the PDF works. This is not meant to be a book with highlights and notes, but rather the highlights and notes shown in context.
The source book is EPUB of The Humbugs of the World by P T Barnum from the Mobileread Library. I used kindlegen to make a dual mobi and used kindleunpack to extract the rawml and azw3, which I copied to a kindle and quickly made 9 highlights with bogus notes.
Then I copied the azw3r and dumped the notes, which also gives the start and end of the each higlight. Next I used the notes_insert.pl from the first post to modify the rawml, then html2ps and ps2pdf. You can search the PDF for '[HL]' or '[Note:' to find the highlights and notes.

Hello,
I generate my AZW3 files by converting EPUBs using Calibre. Then I copy those over to the Kindle (Kindle Paperwhite IV), read and put in notes/highlights. Afterwards, I copy over the .sdr file (including .azw3r and .azw3f) to my computer.
I used your scripts from here:
https://github.com/jps-e/azw3r
in the following way:
1. Extract notes:
perl azw3r.pl -n -i <azw3r_file_path> > out.notes
2. Extract highlights:
perl azw3r.pl -h -i <azw3r_file_path> -r <dat_file_path> > out.highlights
I generated the DAT file by using KindleUnpack from here:
https://github.com/kevinhendricks/KindleUnpack
with this command:
python3 kindleunpack.py -d <azw3_file_path> out.dat
The dat file I used for -r parameter was taken from out.dat/mobi8/ -> assembled_text.dat
The step I don't understand how to do is generating the PDF file. Based on your comment, I should be able to use insert_notes.pl script for this, but I don't know how to call it so that it does this.
Can you help?
Thanks.
