Highlights App - Exporting images in MD

I just tested on my system (macOS 10.15.1 with Highlights 2021.1.1 (511)).

  • Open a PDF
  • Create a highlight annotation
  • Select an image annotation
  • Create an underline annotation
  • Add a note to the underline annotation
  • Export annotations to a folder called “test export” (without the .textbundle extension)
  • Open the test export folder
  • Change the name on the text.markdown file to text.md
  • Move the test export folder to my Obsidian folder

I can see everything quite nicely.

I could not say where the process might fail for you. Perhaps the annotation set is corrupted. You might try a simpler test first.
