User reviews

Wonderful add-on! Thank you so much! Could you please also allow the users to customize the output? (For example, allow the users to use no # symbol or several # before the link when it is pasted etc.).


This is the ONLY text highlighter I've found --ever-- that works the way it should! I tested it by the following: I had a URL in a pdf that I followed and then highlighted text. I changed tabs, went back to the original, then finally signed out of Firefox. Then, I went back to the pdf, opened the URL therein which opened in Firefox. Then I followed a link in that URL, which in turn opened another URL (new tab) with my highlighted texts. They were still there! This is amazing! Thank you for such a great add-on!
