I prefer to store the marked text in a separate file without touching the original PDF book.
To keep the highlights you must Save the PDF document pressing keys.Press A key (for Annotate) to flip highlighting on/off.

The other day I read about a hidden text "annotation" feature available in a prerelease (test) version, and it works nicely to highlight PDF document text as such: My favorite PDF reader of late is Sumatra PDF, a lightweight PDF and ebook reader that doesn't even need installation.

Electronic versions of scientific or computer books are convenient (you can easily search in them), but you still miss out underlining and highlighting paragraphs, scribbling explanations, annotations and other such hard-copy operations that help you revise a book.
