Upgrade StorageReplacing PDFs with file links
Hi
I have just imported my 3000+ reference library to Zotero from Endnote. Many of my items have pdf:s that I would like to be able to access through Zotero whether I work on my computer at home or my computer at work. As I understand it, the only way to do this is to have the pdf:s stored on, e.g. Dropbox and then have a link to the files in Zotero (instead of the actual file). Is that correct? If so, is there a way for me to replace all pdf's with file links in a quicker more convenient way than going in to each item and do it 'by hand'?
Thanks for your help with this! /Lisa
