Local storage structure - a more readable option?
Dear All,
I am a happy user of Zotero and an e-reader and would very much like to connect the two. The aim is to have the pdf-s I annotate on the reader copied back to the Zotero database.
The reader can sync to and from a folder on the computer - note that the reader itself is folder-based and if you want this creates the problem. This could even be the Zotero folder and if it was organised as the libraries an collections inside them, all would be fine. The problem is that the folder structure of the local storage is not human-readable (based on perhaps database keys?). I guess this is hard-wired deeply into Zotero. But still, does anyone think there is a way to make this work?
Thank you in advance,
Zs

One problem I see is shared libraries - the send to tablet option does not appear here. Perhaps doing so is perceived as a functionality clash (sharing vs. personal markups), but as I have many (most) of my stuff shared, this requires me to introduce considerable twists in my workflow... (And I might not be alone with this.)
