  1. Unable to drag and drop pdfs, nor open pdfs on Zotero standalone [Mac]

    by dstillman · October 1, 2018
    Can you provide another Debug ID from Zotero startup through trying to add a file, using the "Restart with Logging Enabled…" option, with ZotFile disabled?
  2. Unable to drag and drop pdfs, nor open pdfs on Zotero standalone [Mac]

    by csbear · October 1, 2018
    Disabling Zotfile had no effect. Does it matter if I do not have Chrome installed? My sole browser is Safari.

  5. Sharing a workflow to rename and move attachments from Zotero into a synced folder

    by adamsmith · September 30, 2018
    Most easily, ZotFile http://www.zotfile.com let's you simply convert all attachments to linked files in a specified location one step.
  6. Using Zotero with a group; sharing file repository

    by internationaled · September 27, 2018
    In our case, we are looking for a workflow in which our team members drop PDFs into a dropbox, and someone on the team uses Zotfile to process these and store them as a Linked File, saved in a shared
  7. "An error occurred while trying to export the selected file." Can you QuickCopy a PDF?

    in Zotero. Is that assumption correct? Is Zotfile the best way to annotate PDFs? I thought I saw some forum discussion on a brand new beta feature involving PDFs, but I am not quite certain what al
  8. Potential for better integration with operating system file management?

    by dstillman · September 27, 2018
    @billtubbs: That's incorrect. You can use a linked-file workflow that leaves your files in place and moves new files that you save from the web to an external folder. ZotFile, linked above, can help w
  9. "An error occurred while trying to export the selected file." Can you QuickCopy a PDF?

    by lisaleine · September 26, 2018
    @dstillman I have not yet disabled Zutilo and Zotfile.
  10. Create external link to open pdf within Zotero

    by smartsquare41 · September 26, 2018
    @adamsmith : I already had ZotFile installed but I am unable to find this function. Changing the select-link to open-pdf does not work.
  11. I need zotero for ipad.

    by bwiernik · September 26, 2018
    Zotfile is a good way to send PDFs back and forth to annotate on an iPad. There is the Papership app that some folks have had success with, though it has not been updated in some time. If an iPad app
  12. Create external link to open pdf within Zotero

    by adamsmith · September 25, 2018
    For files (or rather: PDFs), there is zotero://open-pdf/ , which is implemented by ZotFile. I don't think there is an option for this by Zotero proper.
  13. Is it possible to export Zotero library or collection as files/folders?

    by 01baftb · September 24, 2018
    @bwiernik I looked in to ZotFile's "Send to Tablet" feature. It doesn't properly work. To maintain the hierarchy, I have to manually have to go through each collection (folder) and sub-collection (sub
  14. Is it possible to export Zotero library or collection as files/folders?

    by bwiernik · September 24, 2018
    If you just want a way to send a batch of PDFs to folders, e.g., for emailing, look at the Zotfile "Send to Tablet" feature, which will copy PDFs to a specific folder, potentially with subfolders base
  15. How to batch convert Link to file attachments into copy of file attachment?

    by 01baftb · September 24, 2018
    Although ZotFile is a possible temporary work around, it still doesn't properly work due to bugs. Below are some examples of issues:

  17. How to batch convert Link to file attachments into copy of file attachment?

    by 01baftb · September 24, 2018
    @adamsmith I tested out your suggestion, however, it ZotFile did try to rename/move the files, but it only does it to one item even though I selected multiple items. ZotFile does recognize that I am t
  18. How to batch convert Link to file attachments into copy of file attachment?

    by adamsmith · September 24, 2018
    ZotFile at least _should_ do this when you have it set to "Attach stored copy of file" and then use Manage Attachment --> Rename attachments and I know this used to work. I have a vague recollection t
  19. How to batch convert Link to file attachments into copy of file attachment?

    by 01baftb · September 24, 2018
    I looked into ZotFile, however, I still have not figured out a way to batch convert existing item "Link to file" attachment into copy of file.
  20. Is it possible to export Zotero library or collection as files/folders?

    by bwiernik · September 24, 2018
    Zotfile doesn’t do anything with export, but it can be used to organize the files in your library based on a hierarchical collection/folder scheme.
