How to extract annotations from PDF file?

romana.mirza · March 5, 2022

I found this 6-year old YouTube video that shows how easy it is to extract notations https://youtu.be/4aDvAPLZwCY?t=447 - I can't find the same menu selection options now when right clicking the file. I can find "manage attachments" under >tools< in the main menu but that doesn't do what is shown in the old video. Was this feature discontinued? I have Zotero desktop version of Windows v. 5.0.96.3

Those instructions are for the Zotfile add-on (www.zotfile.com) but note that in the current beta version of Zotero (which will likely become Zotero 6 relatively soon), Zotero itself handles extracting annotations, and does so in a more robust way, so if that's a feature you're interested in, I'd switch to the beta (https://www.zotero.org/support/dev_builds#zotero_beta ) or wait.

Thanks for clarifying.
