    • It will create an annos file in your current folder by default, the annos
    • The annos file stores annotations data in JSON format
    • If you set the Save PDF annotation type as markdown in setting tab, it will create a ${PDF name}-annotate.md file in your current folder
    • Each annotation has an associated quote block with a block reference
      • Please do not modify these blocks

Relating MindMap nodes and annotations

There are three ways to relate mind map node and annotations

  1. Default (Only supports rich mode)
    • Make a PDF annotation
    • Click PDF annotate
    • Edit MindMap node and hit CTRL/CMD + V to relate the node and annotations
    • Click the node PDF annotation and it will will auto copy the id of the annotation to your clipboard
  2. Jumpto protocol obsidian://jump-to-PDF (Supports basic and rich mode)
    • In MindMark settings, set Support protocol to Open
    • This will automatically create a PDF annotation reference link and copy to your clipboard when you click PDF-annotate
    • Paste into markdown file
  3. Use markdown to save PDF annotations (Supports basic and rich mode)
    • You can use [[${md name}#${block reference}]] to associate a quote block with a block reference
    • An obsidian link to an annotation block-reference will, when clicked, open the corresponding file and scroll to the associated highlight
    • If the file is already open in a pane, then the link will cause the existing pane to scroll instead

Importing PDF highlight annotations

  1. You can use CTRL + P and then the change basic to rich mode command
  2. Import highlight annotations from PDF
    • You can find this in the more options menu when opening a PDF

    • You can set the format you want in the MarkMind settings tab
    • The default format is:
Page:{{page}}
Text:{{highlightText}}
Comment:{{comment}}
^{{id}}
