Linked attachments aren't currently supported in Groups (only Zotero-stored attachments), so using Zotfile's moving features won't work here.

Both have zotfile installed (with same renaming settings)

Zotfile can do something like what you want. It can extract highlighted text and comments from a PDF into a Zotero note and separate the extracted comments by color. I believe you can also customize t

Is there a way to refresh so that all the Zotero file attachments are kept in the correct location specified in Zotfile, i.e.:

The watch folder is a rather finicky feature of ZotFile (it doesn't add incoming files automatically, rather, you have to click the notification bubble while not having an item selected).

Sorry to bump this but I've restarted multiple times and Zotfile still isn't moving the pdfs to the new location, renaming them, or bringing any new ones in from the incoming folder.

I am using the latest Zotero (4-somethiing) and just installed Zotfile.

But what i can't do with it is: extract annotations with Zotfile.

I have zotero and zotfile installed in a mac laptop and a windows 10 tablet. I'm using zotfile and the "send to tablet" command to keep a list of papers to read in a folder that is in sync with my p

Good question. Originally, I did it as you suggested. It turned out that the zotfile manual tells you to use different separators for linux and windows.

7- If using the "ZotFile" plugin, unfortunately it copy the file to its "Source Folder" too.

zotfile is a ugly workaround.

After update to Zotero 5.0-beta.r70+da7da74 (on Firefox 49.02 on Ubuntu 16.04 and update to ZotFile 5.0.0.b1) I am having problems with the Zotfile option 'Send to tablet'. I have defined a folder as

I recently saw an idea for extracting annotations that would add a lot of functionality to ZotFile, but I don't know how much it would take to add it...

Zotfile is the easiest way to do this. Zotfile is pretty much regarded as a core part of Zotero for people who want to store their PDFs outside of Zotero's storage folder.

I have used zotfile in the past, but I was hoping I could accomplish the same thing through zotero.

I first installed zotfile on firefox and zotero and set the paths on dropbox.

Zotfile 4.2.7 (which appears to be the most recent).
