Excellent, thanks for your consideration.
-
Great to hear!
-
If there are multiple attachments associated with one item, can I also change which is the 'default' attachment (which is opened when double-clicking the item row in Zotero, not when clicking a specific attachment row)? Renaming doesn't seem to matt…
-
@dstillman I still use the Connector like this regularly but also often go to add an additional field or some other Zotero small task that requires opening Zotero. I had an idea on how to generalize this—what if the Zotero Connector extension had an…
-
@D0ug I've thought a lot about this and want to create something similar (more of an active syncing between the annotations in Zotero's database and KOReader's sidecar files when all stored together in the hashdocsettings/ subfolder, but the end res…

"Just as for iOS and the web library, the Android app will not work with linked files. There's no reasonable way to make that work." @adamsmith Would it be reasonable on Android to follow the pattern of Zotero for Windows/Mac/Linux where you just s…

Beautiful!

Yes, KOReader exports do not support WADM either - I don't know if anything does except for possibly Hypothesis and need to research it more. I don't think the exports are worth worrying about. So yes, a new KOReader integration with any WADM sour…
-
Thanks, I think you're correct that Hypothesis hasn't made their EPUB annotator available outside the demos. obsidian-annotator is outdated and rather buggy, and I mainly added it because it does use Hypothesis for both HTML and EPUB annotation (it …
-
I'm actually curious about the syncing performance/capabilities when syncing the files too.
-
@adamsmith Thanks for pointing that out, I've seen that mentioned but need to read it if the vision is that similar and see how it stores cross-platform annotations. I've used Hypothes.is's ePUB annotation demos which are usable at least in https://…
-
There was work up until ~2015 for standardizing annotation support in ePUBs, similar to PDFs: https://idpf.org/epub/oa/. But as far as I know, that eventually fell apart and the few apps that support embedded ePUB annotations either directly modify …
-
In which directory are local attachments stored on Android?
-
I hope linked attachments (https://www.zotero.org/support/preferences/advanced#linked_attachment_base_directory) will eventually be supported for those of us who use Syncthing or other external sync tools on both desktop and Android. It's not even a…
-
Ah, thanks. URL definitely needs an update then.

https://github.com/MuiseDestiny/zotero-file Zotero-file is a new plugin meant to replace the existing add-on/plugin Zotfile for Zotero 7 going forward. Most features are retained but tablet syncing is not. This is separate from Zotero Storage onli…
-
I didn't realize until now that linked attachments likely won't function on the Android app, and I'm not sure if addons will be supported in Android either. So zotero-file may be the way to go if people prefer that storage method, and the Android ap…
-
| As I understand, certainly with current plans, linked files are not going to work in either the iOS or (forthcoming) Android app (mainly for technical reasons) @adamsmith Is there any info available on the technical reasons keeping linked files f…

The Boox Page is 7 inches and I have its previous iteration (Leaf 2) and love it. If you want to draw/handwriting on the tablet, look at the Note Air 3C. There are many other options too.
-
When the Android app is released soon (purportedly in 2023 with Zotero 7), I'm guessing that will be the easiest way to read and annotate PDFs and EPUBs/HTML files (new to Zotero 7). But I'm not that hopeful that the Android app will be e-ink friend…
-
This is so great, HTML and ePUB together will cover 99% of my documents. I'm curious if this will make its way into the upcoming Android app release too (https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/102102/any-plan-to-make-an-official-app-for-android/p1)? I…
-
Wow, ePUB and HTML, this is a dream come true! And glad my post was helpful to you, @hmijail, though I'll certainly need to update it when Zotero 7 is out. There were (are) plans to release an Android app this year too (https://forums.zotero.org/dis…
-
Following - I hope the PDF reader and annotations are supported!
-
Thanks. Would you be open to a PR if I did the work adding this to the Connector? As it seems like a simpler addition (famous last words). Or is this too far away from the main intent and no matter would what need to be its own independent developme…
-
I came to this same conclusion as KOReader PDF reflow is quite good and it works on so many devices (it even works on Linux, MacOS and Windows via WSL). I've spent some time learning about how PDF annotations could be two-way synced between apps, wr…
-
I wrote an article about this very topic here: https://ryanwwest.com/pkm-annotation/. It seems unlikely that Zotero will support EPUB (or HTML, which I think is at least as important) viewing nor annotations any time soon, so I'm looking for other…

(in case anyone's curious, my use case is Windows 11 Zotero + Boox Max Lumi 13.3 inch ereader tablet using the SpaceDesk second-wireless-monitor Android app and displaying the Zotero PDF reader maximized on the tablet monitor. It works really well a…
-
The current single-page mode (using j/k to switch between pages or the up/down page buttons) works pretty well for fitting the entire page. However, if you want to zoom in on a page past the empty margins, it often requires panning to the center of …

After writing the above, I decided to check out the other locales and realized that 'English (Canada)' uses the YYYY-MM-DD format by default. Still AM/PM 12-hour time, but this is still a good partial solution for me, eh?
-
I'd like to have YYYY-MM-DD format as well, especially if for this case, Zotero already uses this format internally. Another place the less-ideally-formatted date pops up is when using the 'Add Note from Annotations' option after annotationing a PDF…
