ZotFile / Poppler extraction: Poppler not working

bjohas · December 7, 2018

@Joscha - I'm on the latest version of Zotero on OS X (latest version), but cannot select 'use poppler' in the preferences: The button cannot be selected. When I click 'download' nothing obvious happens...

In general, I recommend working with the default pdf.js—it is much more recently developed and more reliable. Why do you want to use poppler?

To see whether it might extract more features - see https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/74966/zotfile-extracting-more-features-of-annotations#latest :) Thanks for answers!

No. Zotfile is currently only written to extract highlights, underlines, and comment bubbles. Other annotations could be added—you could look at the Zotfile code on GitHub and submit a pull request. I don’t believe the Zotfile developer currently has time to work on new features.
