I am new to Zotero and Zotfile and am working on setting up the system. I can import a PDF from my computer, send to my tablet, and import into GoodNotes 5 to annotate. After I am done, I export and r

I agree, there shouldn't be a general problem with Preview when using Zotfile's annotation extraction. There could be occasional issues, judging from reports on the forum (here) and on the web (here a

I'll send a PDF I've had lots of trouble with today via email. Thanks for offering to take a look! A functioning ZotFile would save a looot of time, so that would be wonderful.

@qqbb: Let's not overstate this. The vast majority of Mac users likely use Preview without problems, and we have no reason to think there's a general problem with ZotFile extracting highlights made in

Since the latest update, when I want to attach a stored copy it leads me to C:\Program Files (x86)\Zotero instead of the folder I specify in ZotFile General Settings. Is there a way to fix this?

Zotfile 5.0.16

ZotFile performs the extraction, not Zotero, so a Zotero update shouldn't make a difference. But ZotFile hasn't been meaningfully updated in a while, so I doubt this actually changed there either. It

I've been using Zotero & Zotfile for a while and with a few exceptions of weird PDFs that it didn't like, Zotfile has mostly worked really well.

@paulgrassl: For troubleshooting your Zotfile issue, see here.

it doesn't matter what locations we specify in zotfile preferences because the pdf coming from our browser are saved in the zotero default storage location. I even tried what happens when I set the s

Papership is very buggy and hasn’t been updated in nearly 4 years. You would need to contact the Papership developers, but I wouldn’t be optimistic about a response. I recommend using the Zotfile plug

Thank you for all your work on zotfile. I wish I had found it earlier. I'm in the process of migrating a large library into zotero with the help of zotfile. This is not the first time that I've mig
