Export whole chapter (complete text) with highlights?

Fralippo · 10-24-2016, 06:58 PM

Hi there,

Ok, so I spent a while highlighting a very long .epub text in various colors, etc.

I just realise the best way for me to work with the text is if I could somehow get the whole text with the text highlighted (ideally also annotations) in a document, to edit on a desktop application and/or possibly print.

I would need the whole text including highlights, not purely the highlights/annotations export feature from Marvin.

Do you guys know of a way? I'm not sure this is even possible, but I'm far from having discovered everything Marvin is able to do, so I thought I'd ask here.

(I know worst comes to worst I could take screenshots of every single page and print those...)

-Exporting the chapter with flattened highlights?

Thank you very much!

You can simply highlight the entire chapter and use one of the multiple functions to send that text to whichever apps you have set up on your device.

I'm not aware of a way to "select all" or "select chapter"...but I'm pretty sure that was done on purpose. It would be too easy for people to pirate a book instead of just getting samples/sections/quotes from the book.... Having said that, it should be fairly easy for you to just open the ePub on your computer and access any of the text within the file. Marvin only displays non-DRM ePub files and .cbz files. That doesn't include any highlights you may have added within Marvin...

Perhaps someone else that is more familiar with highlights has a different idea??

Thanks, but as I wrote, it's the complete text including the colored highlights from Marvin I'm after ;-)
I can get to the text in itself pretty easily...
