Problems with highlighting pdf in Acrobat and see them in Citavi
Answered
Hi,
I have some Pdf that everything is highlight in Acrobat is not showing in Citavi. When i highlight an entire paragraph, sometimes in Citavi I see highlighted only one word, but not entire paragraph. I repaired the pdf but the problem persists. Eveything I highlight in Citavi I can see in Pdf but not viceversa.
Please advice.
Thanks in advanced.
The same question 
I tried replicating that using the e-book version from ProQuest, but I can't replicate it with that PDF. However, my suspicion is that when looking at the PDF annotation created by Adobe, I notice it is discontinuous. Citavi’s PDF component has problems with annotations that have a complicated structure. I have created an AddOn that mostly does a number of other things, but one of the things it does it trying to simplify complex external annotations before importing them. I'd be curious if the annotation looks better if you download the AddOn (the alpha version), move it to a folder "AddOns" in your Citavi programme directory, restart Citavi, and then import the annotations via the AddOn.

Hi, Patrick
You might also want to try to re-create the PDF using Ghostscript. In many cases this fixes the inconsistencies in the PDF that are responsible for the issues you experience in Citavi. Please run the following command from the Windows command line (or gswin64c.exe if you've installed the 64bit version):
