Exporting highlighted text pdf
I am currently reading many books and papers and use highlighting a lot. My life would be a lot better if I could automatically extract the highlighted text. I tried several (by now outdated) solutions like Biff (https://github.com/soulisalmed/biff ), RCU and https://remarkable-web.vercel.app/ . The first two are apparently outdated, and the last I can't connect to (and all my files are >4 MB, so manual select doesn't work).
- digest-like feature?
- Update: I have deployed ReMarkable Highlights
-
What does your Remarkable enable you to do that a nice pen and notebook do not?
How? Do you use https://github.com/soulisalmed/biff? Thanks!

Essential 3rd party highlight collection tool (Biff) needs fixing since real highlights in 2.7
I just want to spread awareness that an amazing tool first posted here (github here) is lying in destitution since the 2.7 real highlight update.
- want to install this, but have no idea how

The Quiet Rise of E Ink Tablets – ReMarkable 2 vs. Onyx Boox Note Air
> For example, there's no direct switching between documents.
In case you haven't seen it already: https://github.com/ddvk/remarkable-hacks
The ddvk hacks are easy to apply and reversible. They add a bunch of gestures like instantly flipping between documents. One of my other favorites is a quick swipe gesture to switch to the last-used tool.
I don't want to annotate PDFs and then only save the annotations, but it sounds like biff would help with that if you don't mind another tool in the chain: https://github.com/soulisalmed/biff

Annotating PDF's on Remarkble 2
I use mine quite a bit for annotating documents and presentations. Provided the screen size works for you (you have to be comfortable reading somewhat smaller font sizes than usual), it's quite good for how I work. As another poster pointed out, it follows a different model than most PDF readers, in that annotations are done just like on paper; you don't select text and highlight, you just highlight like you would on paper. My first reaction was that this was lame, but I've come around to feeling that it's probably the right approach for me, in that my mind is not constantly switching between reading and selection modes. Your annotations do sync back to the computer, but to get annotations out in a way that's reusable in other software, you have to use third-party software like "Biff": https://github.com/soulisalmed/biff (there are others too) Another positive thing about it is that because the interface is very sparse and you're working with it largely like paper, you don't have to devote mental load to worrying about accidentally pressing buttons onscreen or about whether palm rejection is going to work or not (at least if you're right-handed). I find that freeing.

Privacy on RM2
You can upload/download files from the cloud with rMAPI. You can also use rmFakeCloud to host your own sync cloud, so the files just go to your own computer/server. This works with rMAPI as well.

Shapes "libarary"
I just use RCU or rMAPI. RCU has a nice graphical interface. Just hit the "upload" button and select the rmn-file.

My custom remarkable document automation setup
code: https://github.com/gleich/neptune uses the rmapi tool (https://github.com/juruen/rmapi) to upload the PDF that gets generated to the remarkable tablet.

If I broke or lost my ReMarkable 2, would I be able to download all the old notes onto a new one?
You can also take backups using easy, convenient, community-written software, like RCU (which I'm the author of), reMy, reMarkable HyUtilities, rmExplorer, rmAPI, and many others found in the Awesome reMarkable list.

Add page to notebook programmatically
An indirect approach: download the notebook using rMAPI, add the page (.rm) to the zip, edit the corresponding meta data files. Delete the original notebook from the cloud storage and upload the modified zip, again using rMAPI.
-
Portable desktop app solution
No need to compile. Just download rmapi-win64.zip and unzip the file. The program (suffix .exe) does not need further installation, no admin rights required.

Connect and Linux
I dont know about official support but https://github.com/juruen/rmapi works fine for me (I only upload and download files on the PC though...)
