Title: Area annotations made in Zotero Web appear blank in Zotero desktop



I annotated a scanned PDF in the Zotero Web Library using area/image annotations. The annotations display correctly in the Web Library, including the selected images/text.

After syncing to Zotero desktop on my Mac, all 51 annotations are present and are located correctly on their respective PDF pages. The yellow annotation rectangles also appear in the correct locations. However, the annotation cards in the desktop PDF reader are blank.

When I use Add Note from Annotations, Zotero creates a note containing all of the annotations and the correct citations/page numbers, but the area-annotation images are blank there as well.

The original area annotations continue to display correctly in the Zotero Web Library.

Zotero version: 10.0.1
Platform: macOS
Debug ID: D637422463

Is there a way to make the existing area-annotation images display correctly in Zotero desktop without recreating the annotations?
