Please read the help or the FAQ about how Skim saves notes. Skim does not
save notes in the PDF (unless you export as PDF With Embedded Notes).

search the notes. Without, applications like BibDesk and EagleFiler would
never be able to do it.

Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
It's the best place to buy or sell services for
just about anything Open Source.
