The annotations are not text: they are vector data corresponding to the
movement of the stylus. You can extract that information (I have
software for the reMarkable that does so) but doing character
recognition would be challenging...
I see... I was referring to annotations entered as text. Can't you do
annotations on those devices like you do in a typical PDF reader,
Acrobat or Okular style, using an on-screen keyboard or a physical
keyboard? It's those kinds of annotations I was referring to, the ones
that are stored as metadata in the PDF.
Another happy reMarkable user here. It looks like the upcoming v3.0 of
the software will allow entering text via the on-screen keyboard.
Whether that is only for 'regular' notes or also for PDF annotation is
not yet clear to me (source:
https://support.remarkable.com/s/article/Software-release-3-0-beta).
Best regards,
Lennart.
As for the stylus notes, I think I would find them useful especially for
proof reading. But very often what I need is just to put text. In Org I
use Org-noter + pdf-tools a lot.
