I know this is probably out of the range of things that currently Xournal is designed to do but - it would be nice to be able to:

  • select bits of text and mark them as "greppable"
  • have a per file option to save the Xournal markup file as plain text

Then after marking up a big doc, I could just grep for appropriate strings in my markups of the Xournal file.

I know this would require Xournal being able to read the PDF text (not from a scanned document) so it is probably too hard / out of scope?

Thanks,

Phil.
