anginara, you should consider the comments from mronkko and adamsmith. If you still want to change your imported attachments to linked attachments, zotfile can take care of that. Just go to the zotfile preferences, change the 'Location of Files' to …

turner-es, I tried PDF Expert and iAnnotate, which both work fine. I assume that goodreader or something like that also works but I haven't tried it. My own experience is that recent journal article work pretty well but older once are often problema…
-
schuessi, I was going to ask the same as Thierry. Is that the problem? Do you have special characters in the %y or %A? Thierry.C, yes I think that is why it sometimes hangs. I am not controlling when pdfs get indexed so. It just happens automatical…

sorry for the trouble. There was a bug in 2.0, which also created the saved search for people who are not using the tablet feature. Not sure whether that is related. You should try 2.1. Delete the saved searches and let me know whether the problem …

Version 2.1 is under review now, which will probably only take a couple of days. Changes in 2.1 - Important: the tag for tablet files was changed from '_READ' to '_tablet' - New saved search for modified files on tablet (updates automatically, r…
-
Thierry.C, you should revert to 2.1b. I will release 2.1 soon but I will fix this bug later. playagiron, sounds interesting but I have no intentions to add this right now. Any potential new features has to wait right now... gm2240, please be more …
-
Thierry.C, I am not sure what is going on. 2.1b2 didn't create any problems either, right? Can you pin it down to a specific character in one of the meta data fields? I might just release 2.1 and fix this later... stefanmeir, maybe there is a subop…
-
Thierry.C, I think I fixed the problem with unauthorized characters in fields. I uploaded the version with the bug fix to the zotfile zotero group. Can you check whether the fix works? I didn't notice any changes in the renaming process and I also …
-
2.1 is pretty much ready but I would like that some people test it before I release it. I changed the tablet tag from '_READ' to '_tablet' and particularly want to know whether the transition works flawlessly. A full list of changes is below. The b…

In general, annotations have to be saved in the standard pdf format (and Adobe, of course, does). Otherwise nothing can be extracted... joatmon, your pdf software does not seem to use the pdf standard for annotations or it saves the annotations in …

quickfold11, when you use the 'Attach new file' function, the old file from the source dir should be removed. If not, try to provide some debug information. But maybe you mean something different? schuessi, I wasn't able to reproduce your problem. …
-
quickfold11, first you should install the most recent version from here. You are still using a 2.0 beta, which had some bugs. Second, the menu is there. It's 'Manage Attachments'. When you install 2.0 you also see the 'Attach new file' again.
-
Thierry.C, you are using windows, right? Can you send me the subfolder setting you are using? The default is '/%w/%y' but that only works for mac/unix. I think I already fixed the problem with subfolders and missing fields but I just want to make su…
-
Heckscher, I assume that you set the 'Location of Files' in the 'General Settings' tab to the location on your tablet. Is that correct? You have to set the tablet location 'Location of Files on Tablet' under the 'Tablet Settings' tab, NOT the other …
-
Thierry.C, it's seems to be the file but I don't know what the problem is either. Maybe the file is locked? I created a zotero group 'zotfile'. When you apply for membership, I will add you so that you can upload the file. I wasn't able to make the …
-
There is a clear advantage for using the PDF standard for any annotations: The files with annotations can be opened and read by all applications that support the standard, which includes apps on different platforms and tablet apps. Skim, for example…
-
erazlogo, I assume that happens because zotero indexes your pdf files, is that correct? When I was indexing my files, zotero always froze and the linking of tablet attachments trickers the indexing. You can either disable indexing or switch to backg…
-
looplog, maybe you should try a different computer but the fact that an error message keeps popping up indicates that something is going wrong. You keep getting the "zitem.getType" error right (even after changing the hidden option)? Anything reprod…
-
Guppy, no there is no page limit or anything like that. Maybe it's some unsupported pdf standard but usually you should get an error message in that case. First, you should check the error console. Then you can send me the pdf if you want or try to …
-
SamR, yes, you found the correct menu entries. Zotfile works through 'Attach new File' and "Manage Attachments". Note that you first have to set the source folder when you are using Zotero Standalone. In general, I won't invest much more time in t…
-
Star7, just go to 'zotfile preference'->'adv. settings' and press the button to add the search again...
-
afabl, Zotero does not allow any linked attachments for group library items simply because the link is only valid on your computer (you also can not create the manually). So zotfile also can not add a linked attachments to a group library item - it'…
-
For Standalone users, Zotero 3.0.1 currently does not update zotfile automatically. 3.0.2 will solve this problem but for the time being, I recommend that Standalone users update to zotfile 2.0 manually.
-
ohthere, both the bug and the feature request are added to the list... thanks for the report.
-
Why don't you just use 'custom location' under general settings to put all pdfs into your tablet folder so that you don't even have to deal with sending files to the tablet etc.? Update is pretty much what 'send' does when the attachment already is…
-
Mogger: I will think about how these ideas fit into zotfile. The scan reader function will get an update and I am thinking about easy ways to access modified tablet attachments. That might include some kind of update function but I am not really sur…
-
Hi! @hcsiller: yes, just select all the items and click 'extract annotations'. Maybe first test with ~10 pdfs. Zotfile extracts the annotations for all pdf attachments of selected items. There might still be problems with some pdfs but zotfile shoul…

To follow up on adamsmith's and Dan's comments: zotfile now extracts pdf annotations on all platforms and I like the idea of adding a link to open the pdf at the respective passage. But right now, I am not even able to open links from zotero notes. …
