Highlights lets you highlight text and select images in the PDF, but take notes in a regular text-editor.
Main features:
- Native support for the new TextBundle-format for Markdown with embedded images.
- Export your annotations to a range of applications: Evernote, VoodooPad or DEVONthink.
- Save your notes to a range of formats: Markdown, TextBundle, HTML or PDF.
v2022.1
The macOS 13 Ventura update! Bringing the Mac version up to speed by adding a lot of highly requested features:
- New Table of Contents view for navigating books and other large PDFs.
- A new color palette: Light! Light is a semi-transparent color palette for those of you who wanted something even more subtle than Pastel for your annotations and notes.
- Automatically fetch metadata for scientific articles from arXiv - the open-access archive with more than 2 million preprints and postprints.
- Save a copy of the PDF without annotations from the File menu (e.g. to share the original document with a colleague or friend)
- Print the PDF without annotations by disabling the "Include Annotations" in the Highlights section of the print dialog
Minor improvements:
- The background color behind the PDF when using night appearance is now black (no longer inverted)
- Preferences has been renamed to Settings on the latest release of macOS (Ventura)
- Fixed an issue where some toolbar buttons would appear too narrow
- Fixed an issue with receipt validation related to AirPlay speakers
- Faster and more precise categorization of annotations into color categories (e.g. when sorting by colors)
- Added support for DOIs with longer prefixes
- "#### Header" instead of "#### Header ####" in category and annotation headers
- Fixes a bug where the notes view could turn blank after the app was in the background for a prolonged time
- Changed default setting for text wrapping in exported Markdown to off
