Problem extracting highlights with hyphenated words at end of sentence
The "add notes from annotations" function is not extracting all of my highlights. Specifically, it omits what remains of a highlighted paragraph whenever there is a word broken over two lines by a hyphen. In other words, when a paragraph includes a hyphen at the end of the line, only the parts preceding the hyphen at the end of the line are being extracted. Is there any fix for this problem? Is the - at the end of a line being interpreted as the program as a place to stop extracting the highlight?
If there is no way to fix this, is there a way to revert to the old version of zotero with the zotfile extract annotations function? I never encountered this problem with the zotfile version of extracting notes. Thanks in advance for any help!

"There is nothing in the text that suggests continued and intense effort is requir-
ed for this to work properly."
When I try to extract this highlighted sentence, only the part preceding the hyphen at the end of a line is being extracted. That is, the extraction is:
There is nothing in the text that suggests continued and intense effort is requir
For example, in the first highlighted paragraph of the pdf I sent, the entire first paragraph is highlighted, but only the first three lines of the first paragraph are extracted (with extraction stopping with the "im-" in "implies." The same issue occurs in all other places where a line ends with a hyphen breaking up a word. I get only the beginning part of the paragraph I highlighted, while the rest of the paragraph is not extracted.
It seems as if the hyphen at the end of lines breaking up words is being interpreted as the end of what is highlighted. I never encountered this issue when I extracted notes with Zotfile.
Which OS and Zotero version do you have?
I am using:
Mac OS Big Sur 11.6.5
Zotero 6.0.9
It seems there is no simple solution to find why this is happening in my setup. As a workaround, is there a way to install the previous version of Zotero with zotfile so I can use the extract function that way?
Again, thanks for your help.
(It is caused by poor OCR software mapping some glyphs to NULL and therefore breaking strings).
