Highlights, notes and bookmarks

Highlight a passage

In a PDF or EPUB, choose the Highlight tool, then select the text. Pick a colour from the toolbar; colours mean whatever you decide.

Click a highlight to:

• add a note to it, such as a question or the idea in your own words;
• change its colour;
• delete it.

Every highlight and its note goes into the book's notebook.

In PDFs you can also draw on the page with the Draw tool.

Bookmark a page

Bookmark any page to come back to it, and add a note to say why. Bookmarks work in every format, including DjVu and comics. Open Bookmarks in the reader to see them all.
