Exporting text annotations from books in Onyx Boox e-readers is limited. You get only the page number, text, note, and chapter name, while most notable competitors provide the colour and highlight styles along with this data.

Without this metadata, much of the context can be lost depending on your workflow.

I built this app to extract that information and output a richer JSON file with all the metadata:

I'm really happy with the #Boox device as a reader and note taking tool. The pen feel and eink is nice.

But exporting book annotations in a useful format for processing is 👎

I'm apparently better off going through the annotations inside the #NeoReader app, just like I'd process book annotations with the book on my desk.
