- Each numbered heart exports the page and underlying text; figures and scanned pages use position instead.
Field notes
The note combines general comments with numbered references, and the export includes each marker’s page and nearby text when the document provides it. On figures and scanned pages, the reference falls back to position; PNG and JPEG users can also copy an image with its markers drawn on. The page says a JSON save stores the note and marker positions, not the original PDF or image.
