Calibre comments

jurgen35 · 05-31-2023, 10:50 AM

Hello,

I have a Cobo eReader and manage my library with Calibre.
I retrieve comments (highlighting in text) with the experimental "send to device --> retrieve annotations" option.

"edit metadata": annotations are displayed correctly in the "comments" window separated by "-----------------------" lines.

In the HTML view the text between these lines does not appear
<hr>
<hr>
<hr>
<hr>

Same when I download the cover and metadata or copy/paste from the comments window into a text editor.

Thanks for your help

KOBO?

something is weird
<hr> is not good HTML (not closed) <hr /> (I suspect you meant <br /> anyway. HR is a horizontal rule)

Next Annotations in Comments? IIRC, it should be a COMMENTS TYPE custom column. They are different columns

I use Kobo Utilities to retrive comments and copy/paste into a text file.
