I asked several times in the past on this list about bookmarks in iText on this list and got no replies. I guess nobody bookmarks anything or it can't be done in iText. I downloaded this app some time back and really have not used it since. Bookle is a much better way to read epub books on the mac presently. Sure can't wait till iBooks comes out with Mavericks. that was the most exciting news I heard at the WWDC keynote last week.
