Hi, thanks for making it work !
I use acrobat x pro (not DC) is there a simple (icon) way to save a PDF to zotero and doing it by hand ?
Thanks

    It's not clear what exactly you mean.

    If you have PDFs in your Zotero library that you want to open in Acrobat X Pro (instead of Acrobat DC, which may be the default on your system), go to the preferences pane and set the desired application in the "Open PDFs using" box.

    If this is about getting PDFs into Zotero, see adding files to Zotero.

    Thanks Mark, let me try make it clearer. I have a pdf file open in acrobat x pro that is not yet in my zotero database and now I want to put the pdf in my zotero database. Now I do not see how to do it easily.
    Thank you for your help.

    Follow the second link in my post. Basically you can't do it from within Acrobat, as it doesn't know how to talk to Zotero. Save the PDF in a place where you can find it, then drag and drop it into your Zotero library following the instructions.
