It’s easy on the Kindle or Kindle to mark passages or White Paper to take notes, but hard to get them out of the Amazon universe. We show how to do it.



If you come across a particularly interesting passage when reading on the Kindle, this can be very simply highlight: a long press on the start of the text and then simply drag the marker to the end. In the latest software, the label can be then adjusted before the press “Select” she assures. Pressing “Add Note”, however, does just that, it allows to add your own text note about the respective keyboard. Marks and notes are automatically synchronized within the Kindle universe.

The HTML representation makes copying the notes in a notepad program here cumbersome, since for each note some automounted Links must be manually removed. In addition, notes and highlights lack of “personal documents” – ie pdf files or mobi ebooks that you have manually loaded onto the Kindle. In the “My Clippings.txt” these, however, are available.

So really comfortable is not the administration and the export of clippings unfortunately until now, but with the existing tricks can now work. Let’s see on Amazon sometime even comes up with the idea to offer the readers a little more comfortable here. In their apps they have thus already begun
