Disabled due to PDFJS version incompatibility issues with Obsidian Core v0.10.8

The new release https://forum.obsidian.md/t/obsidian-release-v0-10-8-insider-build/11323 moved its internal use of PDFJS from 2.1.266 to the latest version which results in several incompatibilities inside this plugin.

I'm working on fixing this but it may take a while.

Please stay tuned and use Zotero + Zotfile to extract your highlights in the meantime.
