Also could you try if the following script correctly selects all highlights:
tell document 1 of application "Skim"
set theSel to {}
tell current page
repeat with theNote in notes
if type of theNote is highlight note then
set theSel to join theSel to selection of theNote
end if
end repeat
end tell
set selection to theSel
end tell
