  • Update: The issue is mostly resolved in Zotero 6.0.5-beta.5+ee10d3330, as @AbeJellinek said. Brilliant!! Thank you. The way in which the extractor ignores the duplicates seems to be based on exact duplications, so if the PDF text is a little screwy…
  • Ah, OK. So it remains functional as an export feature and you can't actually embed the annotations into the original PDF going forward. I suppose you could theoretically export, delete the original and then replace it with the exported file for each…
  • Hello @AbeJellinek, That's great news! I'll definitely try out the beta then. Thank you. The removed option that the article mentions is File -> Store Annotations in File, which caused a lot of confusion and is rarely necessary. Thank you for cor…

  • Zotero 5.0 has a vertical/stacked layout option Thank you for the hint! It's a bit cramped but works well enough.
  • It would be nice to see a fix for this at some point. If adaptive design doesn't work for some reason, maybe a button to switch between landscape/portrait layouts could be implemented.
