Hi Mackx,

Irex Iliad automatically creates and moves the pdf file to directory with the same name as pdf file. Pdf file is so saved in the folder with the same name. So under the one folder only one pdf file is located. One scrible file belongs to one pdf and no more, if I understand well.
So Export annotate should be able to do same procedure and export the medatada information to this folder. By this way only one metadata will belong to one pdf file. Original pdf with the metadata may remain to the parent folder and medata is shared with the all documents or pdf is moved to the new created folder (even better).
Benefits of the xournal is obvious: straight lines, more bw colours, circles, squares, more erasable options....
You may not worry about my idea, it is just an idea. You already did a lot of more useful features.

Thanks,
Regards,
Janez
