Absolut enttäuschend!!! Weder als Browserextension, noch als Plugin in Adobe Acrobat einsetzbar! chön, dass ich eine Webseite abspeichern kann, aber das geht auch mit den Lesezeichen, oder sogar notepad!!! Wieso kann ich keine Zitate markieren?! Im Browser kann ich die Extension nicht in geöffneten pdfs aktivieren, auch wenn die Berechtigung für das lesen von lokalen Dateien aktiviere. In Adobe Acrobat heisst es, das Plugin sei inkompatibel (32bit, anstatt 64bit) Ich bin absolut entäuscht und würde es nicht einmal als Festplattenfüller empfehlen.
