    I've looked all over and can't find the answer: when i "extract annotations", where do they go. Seriously, is there a clipboard or something that i'm not aware of?
    Thanks

    A popup window will appear - where you can copy the info into a clipboard and use it somewhere else.

    Okay, but when i click "copy" on the popup window, where is it being copied to, meaning, is it stored somewhere on diigo that i'm not aware of. If i'm just supposed to take the annotations and copy them to my computer, then what is the point of having a copy button on the popup window that does not actually do anything?

    My "copy" button on my popup says "copy to clipboard"; so I click on that button and then go to a text editor (like Word or OpenOffice) and hit "paste" and then I have a document with all the content. (Does that answer the question?)

    Hmm, thanks but it doesn't work for me. My button only says "copy" for one, and when i go to paste it in open office writer it comes out as a mess with what i guess is the html code showing along with the text?

    I get the same thing (under a bookmark, "share", "extract", then "copy"), where it copies all the HTML in a format like this:

    I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.12.
