Here is a new zotfile version that is compatible with Zotero Standalone. It's currently under review at Mozilla so that you will have to install it from here. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/zotfile/versions/ New Features in 1.6.4…

I know, kind of sad. Maybe I still have a windows laptop somewhere in ny but I am not even sure and won't be able to check before mid September. I am actually more hoping for a compiling expert...

Here is a new beta for 0.5. The extraction of annotations should now work for macs. You have to install the program separately though (ZotFile Pref->ZotReader->Download & Install...). Windows and Linux users should get a greyed out 'Downlo…

@prjohnston: Yes, the counting is only based on the number of attachment files. I am not sure whether I will change that because it would require to check every attachment before prompting the user. Probably not a big computational burden but still.…
-
@synoptic: okay, I see. Now it's more clear. I assume you are running zotreader in background mode, right? I will look into it when I find time. Let me know when you find out more. @prjohnston: Do you just want to move the pdf attachments to the r…
-
no, that is not possible at the moment but it's already on my list. The filename will most likely get a 'postfix', which is either set to something like _annotated or can be changed by the user. I am pretty sure that it will still take some time tho…

Pdfs from iAnnotate and Preview should both work... There are multiple steps involved and it's important to pinpoint the where exactly the problem is. First, the plugin calls the binary using the location of the pdf and the output text file as an a…

Hey, it's a c++ program that extracts all note annotations as well as the highlighted text from your pdf attachments in zotero. You can use it in two ways: a) when you remove an attachment from your tablet, the annotations are automatically extracte…
-
My FF does not complain... The URL was wrong but your error report sounds like something different, right? Maybe FF doesn't allow binaries in extension packages? Can you confirm that it's not the URL?
-
Hi, here is the first version that extracts highlighted text from PDFs. The extraction is currently only working on the mac. There is a good chance that it's not going to work at a different computer but I am hopeful. Can anyone confirm whether it…
-
Great! I will send you an email.
-
The extraction of annotations and highlighted text is pretty much working now. I had to write a c++ command line tool based on the poppler library to accomplish the extraction of highlighted text (note annotations are pretty easy but highlighted tex…

The new version is now under review with some small changes compared to the last beta a updated. The review will take about a week but you can already download 0.4 from here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/zotfile-reader/versions/ …

Hi, here is a new beta version with lots of changes for user-defined subfolders. http://www.columbia.edu/~jpl2136/zotreader_04b6.xpi Changes: - vastly improved user defined subfolders: - improved interface - easy to change the order of subf…
-
Currently it's not possible and I am not sure whether I will add that simply because it's creating multiple copies of a file. But currently, you have two options: (a) import the attachments (set destination to 'Attach stored file of file(s)' in the…

%y = year from the 'date' field for all item types if item type is patent, %y = year from the 'issue date' field (I think that the 'date' field is not defined for patents. If someone tells me otherwise, I will change this rule) Is that clear?
-
@mark: Did you see the user-defined (and collection based) folders in new test version of Zotfile Reader? (there is now also an option for re-pushing)
-
I have made a small change so that %y is now the date for all item types but the issue date for patents. It will show up in 1.6.4, which still takes some time because 1.6.3 is still under review at mozilla (it's a full review so it takes even more t…
-
I just saw that there are two date fields for patents. The 'issue date' and the 'filing date'. Which one is the important one? Would it make sense to define %u as issue date for patents and as year for every other item type?
-
Another voice for quicksearching in note content!! The improvements with the drop-down menu are already great but searching note content as another option would really make zotero notes more useful.
-
I don't really see the value of "Use the first available collection path for each item" because you can simply select the first collection and all items are moved to this folder. I also don't think that "Use all available collection paths for each i…
-
Here is another version with the following changes: - functions are renamed ('move' and 'remove' instead of 'push' and 'pull') - folders created from collections are correctly sorted - new preference: How to handle attachments that are already on th…
-
1) I will change that. I am wondering whether it would also make sense to offer the lower level folders as options even when the item is not in these collections. In the example, that would add '/05_Projects' and '/05_Projects/Event Project'. Does t…
-
Here is a second version. Now everything should run smoothly in tab mode too. I have also added the possibility to push based on all the collection an item is in. So there are now two options for project folders" a) Project folders based on Zotero c…
-
Here is the first test version with 'project folders' - i.e. user specified subfolders. Project folders can be turned on and off through the zotfile preference window. This is a test version only and it would be good to get some feedback. Not only w…
-
I am working on something like this for zotfile reader (basically through a > popup in the right-click menu). In this case, user defined project folders are much more useful because that is the only way you can access your pdfs on your tablet. I …
-
Glad to hear that you enjoy zotfile. It is a zotero feature. zotfile has nothing to do with removing attachments from the zotero library. The change of the storage place also doesn't affect zotero's behavior. What might matter is whether the attach…
-
yes, that is true. Currently, there is no way to rename a file without moving it somewhere (zotfile either imports the attachment into zotero OR moves it to a predefined folder - i.e. destination folder). I will consider adding an option to leave th…

The plugin has now been approved by Mozilla. The next version 0.3 is already under review and can be downloaded in advanced from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/developers/addon/zotfile-reader/versions/ New features in 0.3 - More intelligent pull…

@ mark: The bug has been around since 1.6.0 and is solved in 1.6.3, which still takes some time simply because of the review process (currently, 1.6.2 is still under review at Mozilla). I don't really get your second comment. Can you elaborate? By …
