Amazing! Will the betas be announced through the Calibre app update notifications, or is there somewhere else that we can check for them?

For information on the current beta, you can check the Attn plugin devs: porting to python 3 thread.

You can check Calibre Betas to download the latest version. Note that there are still quite a few issues with plugins written for Python2 which have not been upgraded to Python3.

Edit: If you want to play with the beta, I'd recommend the portable version.

Thanks, I never knew those existed! I don't use many plugins, so hopefully it'll be ok (and, really, I'll primarily be using it for the viewer with annotations - I can keep using the normal version for the rest of my operations).

The 4.99 version in the plugins sub-forum made was created for plugin developers to test changes they have to make to be compatible with what will be version 5.

If Kovid follows past practices, when he has a beta version ready for wide-scale user exposure he will post it here in a thread titled something like "Calling for Version 5 beta testers" - it will be in the sticky section. If it's not I will make it so

Please wait until that happens.

Yeah all that's left is getting the annotations support working in the in-browser viewer, once that's done I will announce betas for testing/fine tuning of the annotations support.

Calibre is Not a primary reading device (I can' t hold up a 22" monitor for more than a few minutes and the Keyboard always ends up under the Cat making page turns impossible)

(That is Sebastian who used to fit in my slipper)
Cat-typing is a difficult skill to master.

Agreed - I prefer to do all of my reading on my laptop because I read for research, and taking notes is ridiculous on any non-keyboard device. Therefore, I have no need for conversion - just library manager and reader. Annotations within Calibre would make it the perfect reading tool for me.

Being able to easily link/integrate those annotation notes with another notetaking app - be it OneNote, Evernote, or whatever - would be a dream come true.

See Calibre and Evernote for an example of what you are looking for.

I'm looking forward to Calibre version 5. That way we can highlight and annotate eBooks from within the program.

For that reason, I'd like to ask if there is any plans to supporting the ability to annotate and highlight PDFs.

No, I'm afraid not, annotations are for ebook formats such as epub/azw3/etc.

Question: Will there be an option similar to the bookmarks one for annotations be stored in the files themselves or as separate files?
