No, Zotfile literally cannot edit any part of a pdf file, including annotations. It simply has no ability to interact with a PDF file other than to read it.

No, Zotfile doesn't edit the PDF itself, but he edit the comments you have wrote. I know it shouldn't make this to that, but it does it.

I'm not aware of anything in ZotFile that's currently reliably broken. E.g. I just tested extracting highlights on Windows 10 using Acrobat and that works just fine. I'd try with different annotation

The intention from the Zotero developers is to incorporate many of Zotfile’s features into Zotero itself.

I'm a bit worried by Zotfile's author's comment at the link below[1] that they won't be working on Zotfile in the near future.
