The bookmarks functionality isn't finished yet (but it does have important features like nicknames, called keywords like in Fx). I don't think that can currently be done other than through manually rearranging things, which is a bit inconvenient.

At Import and Export feature I see no option for exporting bookmarks. I believe it certainly will be added at a near future but there is currently any way I can copy it manually as a file able to import to firefox? (I don't know where bookmarks are located in Ubuntu version).
Thanks.
A matter of attitude.

Otter's bookmarks should be in ~/.config/otter/bookmarks.xbel
Firefox's or Iceweasel's bookmarks are in ~/.mozilla/CRYPTICNAME.default/bookmarks.html
Don't ask me how to get the information from xbel to html, though.
As far as I know Firefox cannot import bookmarks from Opera or Otter.

There seems to exist a few tools to convert xbel to html but I don't know how to work with that stuff.
Thanks anyway py-thon. :)

It's a pity that Firefox can't import bookmarks from a common standard format. As it is I guess Otter will have to add support to HTML export.

Option to export bookmarks to HTML has own ticket:

But we are planning to overhaul import and export APIs first.
