I didn't know that, possibly because I've only extracted annotation text on PDFs on Linux using Okular (simply, select, copy paste). I must look again. I'd not even have attempted to separately save annotations from a PDF on Android.

I've only much actually annotated PDFs with PDF import/export via Nebo on Android, which makes the Kobo version look like junk. Nebo needs a digitiser and isn't everyone's cup of tea, but seems better than OneNote. No use without a proper stylus and poor on eink.

Mostly I only annotate epub, on Kobo eink, with touch keyboard. I'd check PDFs for POD (which doesn't need annotation as that's done on the epub version, an Pocketbook App is better). Otherwise PDFs are only for reading and I find Pocketbook on Android best for that. Nxtpaper 14 tablet in landscape (14.25″) with two pagers, for much, or single page portrait for bigger PDFs,

I compared the Nxtpaper 11 (I also have) with a borrowed iPad Pro side by side, with comics, PDFs and epub. The iPad was too shiny. My 2002 Dell Inspiron 8200 (1600 x 1200) is less annoying to read on than an iPad.

But certainly I won't pay a subscription for software or use features that put watermarks! I actually don't use Xodo since I figured PDFs in Pocketbook and got Nebo (I don't any longer have any Android that doesn't work with Nebo).a
