Christiaan:

Thanks much for all your efforts on the wonderful Skim program!

Using Skim 1.6.20 I wrote a note on a PDF containing the url that I
got the PDF from.  I then embedded the note into the pdf
(https://alum.mit.edu/www/toms/ftp/skimembed).  This allowed me to
transfer the note along with the PDF to another computer.  Indeed, the
note was on the other computer also under Skim 1.6.20.

Then I wanted to copy the URL for use on the second computer and was
unable to copy/paste the note.  The text above and below the note
showed up fine in my cut/paste buffer but the note did not.

The first computer is on Ventura macOS 13.6 22G120, up to date.  The
second computer is on Ventura macOS 13.5.2 22G91, almost up to date.

What am I missing?  Why can't I copy the contents of a note?
Maybe Skim could be changed so that one can copy the notes?

When I convert the entire PDF to text using pdftotext I get the URL
from the note.  So it's in the PDF but not recognized by the macOS.
