I should have added that I usually read the footnotes on my phone.

I think, though, that the fastest way is still the one I usually follow: opening the same book in two PDF Readers ( in ny case the FoxIt Reader) and pointing to the Latin/Greek text in one reader and the corresponding translation in the other reader.

FWIW: I use the free version of the PDF XChange Editor, it has the ability to view different sections the same document in separate side by side panels, see attachment.

The problem is that for some reasons, Calibre cannot always remove the DRM from some of the Kindle books, hence the PDF conversion, even with the proper PLUGINS installed. won't work.

A reader suggested to re-download the book from the library and explained how to do it. It worked great, with the exception of one book.No big deal.

I think the problem is solved, for the moment, but it aways puzzles me that it doesn't work for some books...

I'm afraid I can't help you with DRM issues. You might want to take that up as a separate issue here or elsewhere.
