Currently they're saved as a list in a custom text field with metadata in an HTML comment, like so:





Calibre has since released new highlight functionality, but I currently don't have the capacity to rewrite the plugin to store the highlights there.

Another option, if you don't want to use Calibre: I have written a Python script that retrieves your bookmarks from KOReader's SSH server and stores them as Markdown: https://git.sr.ht/~harmtemolder/koreader-to-markdown
