What is a .ANNOT file?
The most common data format on the web.
An ANNOT file is an XML file created by Adobe Digital Editions that stores your highlights, notes, and bookmarks for an EPUB or PDF eBook. You do not open it directly - open the paired eBook in Adobe Digital Editions and annotations load automatically. There is no tool to export these annotations to PDF or move them to another e-reader.

Frequently asked questions
Is my .ANNOT file uploaded anywhere?
No. The file is opened directly from the copy you pick.
My .ANNOT file is invalid. Can you fix it?
We show the exact line and column of the first error. For common problems like comments, trailing commas, single quotes or Python-style True/False/None, click Try to repair and download the fixed file.
How large can the file be?
Up to 50 MB. The tree only builds the branches you open, so even multi-megabyte files stay responsive.
What is JSONPath?
A path like $.orders[3].customer.email that points to one value inside the data. Click any node to see its path and copy it for code, jq or your API docs.
Can I see my data as a table?
Yes. Any array of objects can be shown in the Table view and downloaded as CSV.
