Abstract: Some embodiments provide a content processing application with a novel annotation migration operation that allows the application to automatically migrate annotations from a first version of content such as a document to a second version of the content. Examples of such annotations include user-specified notes, highlights, bookmarks, and/or other annotations. The content processing application examines different sets of content segments in the second version to identify a particular set of content segments that matches a first set of content segments in the first version associated with a particular annotation. Upon identifying a matching particular set of content segments, the content processing application associates the particular annotation with the particular set of content segments in the second version. The content processing application can then provide a presentation of the second version with the particular annotation for the matching particular set of content segments.

Abstract translation: 一些实施例向内容处理应用提供新颖的注释迁移操作，该操作允许应用自动地将注释从第一版本的内容（例如文档）迁移到内容的第二版本。 此类注释的示例包括用户指定的注释，亮点，书签和/或其他注释。 内容处理应用程序检查第二版本中的不同集合的内容片段以识别与特定注释相关联的第一版本中的第一组内容片段匹配的特定的一组内容片段。 在识别匹配的特定内容片段集合之后，内容处理应用将特定注释与第二版本中的特定内容片段集合相关联。 然后，内容处理应用程序可以提供具有用于匹配的特定内容段集合的特定注释的第二版本的呈现。
