Google Patents US20150026162A1 - Processing techniques for visual capture data from a rendered document Or, if you have the plain text (again, something any Project Gutenberg-type book would have), you could import the whole text into a notes/wiki/research app like Roam directly.US20150026162A1 - Processing techniques for visual capture data from a rendered document ![]() With older texts, though, or indie books sold as PDFs, MarginNote and LiquidText both are far more useful since you can highlight the text directly where you manage bookmarks. I've tried putting quotes from paper books in Roam to link together, and that's worked generally well so far-with the same caveat as with Kindle, you need to open the book to find the context later. ![]() Would love to see Kindle be a more open platform, and/or for Amazon to build more research tools into it. But then the problem is that the highlights are delinked from the original text, thus you'd have to open Kindle and find the highlight to fully connect the dots. The biggest problem I have with highlights is that I read Kindle eBooks, highlight in-app, then need to get the highlights out of Kindle and into another app if you want to organize all highlights/annotations together. Interesting challenge, though one that may be easier to solve with classic texts than newer books. ![]()
