Issue exporting PDF annotations from new reader
Excited to be checking out the new pdf reader! Thank you to the devs!
Based on the announcement at https://www.zotero.org/support/pdf_reader_preview, I believe I should be able to export comments on the PDF as well as with the metadata. However, this doesn't seem to be working.
I added a highlight and a comment with the highlight to a PDF within the new reader and then went to `File` -> `Save As...` to export the PDF. Same with When I open the PDF in my external reader (Preview), I get the highlighted text, but the comment isn't appearing.
Similarly, I am unable to export annotations with the metadata under`Export Item...` with `Translator Options` → `Export Files`→ `Include Annotations` selected. I tried several formats: BibTeX, Better BibTeX, Better BibLaTeX.
Where exactly are the annotations stored? I see "Annotations are stored in the Zotero database"; however, I haven't found them. I'm finding images captured from PDFs under 'cache/library', but not finding the annotations and highlights.
Any suggestions are appreciated!
My system:
Zotero v5.0.97-beta.32+3fc7ce8e7
MacOS Big Sur v11.4
Preview v11.0
