Export as Folder full of PDFs
I have been using Zotero for a couple of days now and it is fantastic.
One thing that would be incredibly useful (and that I can't imagine would be that difficult to add)- is another export option.
If I could click on 5 or 6 references and click "Export" and the PDFs associated with each file went to a folder, together, that would simply be amazing.
Right now if a colleague is not on Zotero, Zotero is not much help in terms of sharing...
if there is a way to do this already, I'd love to know it.
thanks.

Alternatively are there any good workarounds? I am currently revising for my university finals and I often need to put a batch of PDFs onto a memory stick to take over to the campus computer lab for printing.
My physics department requires me to provide a mirror of my personal (zoter managed) pdf library, in a folders/files structure on a network drive. With specific pdf filename format: author_year_journalinitials_title.pdf
Any advice on how to zotero's export options to get this output, preferably in folders for every collection, much appreciated - although pdf export to a single folder is good enough. But the filename structure is vital for me.
And the file renaming 'whatever-you-like-it-we-do-this' capabilities, sweet.
It's just a little bit inconvenient to go through each collection, ctrl+a, rightclick>send to tablet to appropriate collection folder, than just to be able to do this only once and for all from a saved search (defined by - all papers before added 2011) and have PDFs arrange automatically in appropriate collection folders.. but anyways, thank you very much
