zotero data automatically saved to share instead of C:\Users\\Zotero

lampf · July 5, 2023

Hello to the Zotero-Community,

I am trying to find instructions on how to adjust the settings of Zotero so that PDF text-files and all other zotero data are automatically saved to a share/cloud instead of the default settings (C:\Users\\Zotero).

Thank you!

With "cloud" I don´t mean the zotero cloud but different cloud programs.

Use of linked files allows PDFs to be stored to a cloud-mirrored location (eg via Dropbox).

A WEBDAV server is another form of cloud storage.

All forms of PDF storage have caveats and limitations. It is possible to convert between the different options, should one not work well for you.
