Zotfile, "extract annotations": the attachment with notes is not created

edited August 23, 2019
Hi,
I added Zotfile to Zotero 5.0.74, using MacOS 10.14.6

I did some notes on a pdf, however when I try to select "extract annotations", the attachment with notes is not created and Zotero gives me the following message:

"Attachments skipped because they are top level items, snapshots or the file does not exist"

Does someone know how I can fix this issue?

Thank you

  • (Be sure to use a descriptive thread title. There's no need to put your Zotero version and OS in every title, but it's important to give an appropriate summary of the problem. In this case, you'd want to make sure you mention ZotFile in the title, since this isn't a Zotero question.)

    Is the PDF a top-level attachment, or is it a child attachment of a regular item?
  • Dear dstillman,
    thank you for the feedbacks: I edited the title.

    I realized that if I try to use "extract annotations" on a child attachment of a regular item it actually works fine. I was trying to do that on top-level attachment. So I guess that the problem is solved.
