Dear Kovid

Thanks for your advice. Calibre is truly wonderful. Great work!

I'm not sure I truly understand your answer.
For example: If we have 3 users A,B and C. Two (A and B) have write permission. If A is changing the ePub (with an annotation) does B and C "see" this annotation? Is the "original" Version of the ePub "gone for ever" or could it be restored?

Second question
To include annotations / highlights the user has to work with the build in ePub editor?

Third Question
Is there an option for mobile devices to annotate / highlight. I tried with Calibre-web. But I wasn't able to find out how to do it.

Forth Question
Do you have a suggestion for a third party (iOS) application, which works best with calibre and is able to sync back information on highlights / annotations? (like kyBook3 maybe)?

Thanks so much for your help!

With regards
Henning
