Abstract

Techniques are disclosed for sharing user markings between digital documents and corresponding physically printed documents. The sharing is facilitated using an Augmented Reality (AR) device, such as a smartphone or a tablet. The device streams images of a page of a book on a display. The device accesses a corresponding digital document that is a digital version of content printed on the book. In an example, the digital document has a digital user marking, e.g., a comment associated with a paragraph of the digital document, wherein a corresponding paragraph of the physical book lacks any such comment. When the device streams the images of the page of the book on the display, the device appends the digital comment on the paragraph of the page of the book within the image stream. Thus, the user can view the digital comment in the AR environment, while reading the physical book.
