Incremental extraction of highlights #94
Comments
I was just looking into something like this: I want to add an annotation to an opened PDF and then have a way to import that annotation into org noter. I was thinking of implementing the new function This way, we can check if, for all annotations, an item with a property using its I can probably program this but I was wondering if this is something that you @weirdNox would be interested in having. If yes, I can work on a PR. |
Hello there! Sorry for "ghosting" this project; With that said, @UndeadKernel if you feel that you can do it, go ahead and suggest a pull request! The basic functionality of dumb syncing is easy enough, like you said. Also, I believe that this what issue #27 is about, so it would be (at least) 2 issues with a single pull request! :D |
Could it be possible to have annotation/highlights grouped by page? It's a bit annoying to have each highlight of a page in different headings. Or maybe group them in quarters of the page if wanted to use precise note location. |
I am trying to implement an 'incremental reading' system using
org-noter
,org-brain
andorg-drill
(as well as Anki).Currently I read a given PDF, highlighting portions of the text I want extracted. I then extract these highlights using
org-noter-create-skeleton
and add a:drill:
tag to the subsequent tree. Iorg-drill
these items, slowly whittling them down and eventually exporting them to Anki.This process works well initially, when that first extraction occurs with
org-noter-create-skeleton
. However subsequent extractions create new skeletons with all previous highlights, and I need to dig through the tree to find the new highlights.I wonder if its possible to extract only highlights that aren't already in the org-file and append them to the end of the tree? To throw a spanner in the works I'm using @fuxialexander 's org-pdftools and their pdf-notes-booster branch, which gives precise locations, as @weirdNox of course already knows.
