Mendeley to Zotero import

I am following the directions from this link to export my mendeley library to zotero. https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/mendeley_import

I delete the old database, downloaded Mendeley 1.18 and it synced all the citations but it's stuck and not syncing any PDFs from the server. Should I go ahead to import the unencrypted mendeley database to zotero? I have to add all the pdfs later again in zotero right ?

    If you want the PDFs to show up in Zotero, you would need to sync Mendeley fully before importing.

    You could of course add them manually after, but that Zotero would take care of that for you if your data and files were fully synced in Mendeley 1.18.
