fichier joint

repeatedly i have to transform a linked file attachment to an attached file.
Is there a way to do this automatically when saving the attachment?

à plusieurs reprises je dois transformer "une pièce jointe de fichier lié" en un "fichier joint".
Existe-t-il une façon de faire ça de manière automatique au moment d enregistrement de la pièce jointe ?

transform a linked file attachment to an attached file

Is this really what you mean? Because Zotero saves stored files, not linked files, by default.

thanks for your reply
I have a new PC
I have used Sync to import my library from Zotero.org
All files saved as "Stored files" have been imported successfully.
However, the "linked files" have not been saved in my zotero.org library
Consequently, I cannot import them to my new PC.
The "linked files" are files that I have added manually in my library.
So I have to attach them again. Then to avoid this problem in the future I use "Tools / manage attachement / convert linked files to stored files"
In the future, when I use "attach link to file", is it possible to automatically get a "store files"?
Thanks a lot

This still isn't making sense to me. If you want a stored file, you just add the file as a stored file. Why are you using "Attach Link to File" if you don't want linked files? If you want a stored file, use "Attach Stored Copy of File".

OK thank you very much. I was unaware of the "Attach Stored Copy of File" function
