We're in the process of merging personal libraries in our research department. One user has added links to locally stored PDF's by adding "file:///C:\..pdf" to the URL field of an item. Unless I'm mis

I have already the attachments stored locally in my Zotero storage dir, it would be extremely simple to change this into linked items by using Zotfile. In Zotfile, I would only need to set the storage

adamsmith and I discovered a renaming behavior that seems to be caused by Zotfile. It would be great if Zotfile could be updated to be a bit less aggressive in Zotero Standalone so that it is possible

I can actually replicate the different behavior between Standalone and Firefox. You can try posting to the ZotFile thread, yes. I wouldn't expect a quick fix, though.

@ adamsmith Do you think I should report it in the ZotFile thread?

that's ZotFile behavior still though -- ZotFile is more aggressive about renaming, even if it uses Zotero's renaming routine. No idea why it behaves differently on Standalone and Firefox, though it's

I have Zotfile installed in ZFF and ZSA but both switched to "Use Zotero to Rename". I therefore do not understand the different behavior of ZFF and ZSA. Am I missing something in the Zotero Preferenc

I have a desktop and a laptop sharing pdf links on OneDrive via ZotFile. Symlinks are also on both machines that point to the Zotero storage folder located on OneDrive. This only occurs on the laptop

ZotFile is great. I initially decided not to use the folders option for sending files to my iPad but later decided to enable it. In Zotero standalone when I mark a file to send to the iPad it tells m

So I have decided to use Zotfile to monitor a specific folder where I can put files to be added to Library automatically.

@adamsmith I've changed the Firefox PDFJS configuration values with no success. I've now installed the standalone version of Zotero incl. Zotfile. Extraction of annotations works fine with the standal

@zurpher -- hard to say. I'd test it out. Generally, zotfile has its own pdfjs build, but it might take preferences from the general one.

sorry if this has been asked before, but due to zotfile forum being one endless discussion this is difficult to establish. My old e-reader broke down, so I changed to a new one (boox m96 running andro

I've now tried your suggestion. I've uninstalled Zotfile - restarted Firefox - installed Zotfile - restarted Firefox with no success.
