Annotations from external editor are read only in Zotero pdf editor

This is probably related to https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/94184/problems-with-text-in-beta-annotation-extraction.

Annotations made in the external pdf viewer (PDFXchange) are not editable in Zotero's editor. The editor applies colours to the notes, but those colours can't be changed and the can't be deleted by the Zotero editor. I'm hoping this is an easy fix.
  • Yes, they're read-only — Zotero doesn't modify the PDF by default. If you want to edit them, use File → Import Annotations to convert them to Zotero annotations.
