Import Nested Folders - Mac OS X Finder
Hi there, just getting started with Zotero--really liking it so far!
I first started importing a bunch of .pdfs I had sitting on my desktop. So far so good. Now I'm hoping to import a large collection of articles (mostly .pdfs) that currently reside in a nested folder structure on my hard drive. I hoped it was as simple as just dragging the topmost folder over to Zotero, but that doesn't work.
Is there a way of doing this (while preserving folder structure) that does not require me to create a collection manually to correspond with each nested folder, and then drag the files from the original folder over? I ask because I think this would take quite a while!
