Most likely ZotFile, though possible something else.

I use Zotfile so I have to look in its forum.

Is there is any way to shift out pdfs stored in Zotero to a folder outside Zotero but retain them as linked files? I can't do this by creating the links for each file as I already have too many store

Same behavior meaning: The Zotero report shows the notes that have been extracted with ZotFile, but some of them are not formatted correctly, they are full of HTML-Tags. Technically they get wrapped u

Yes, that is on purpose. You can edit the note with the extracted annotations (e.g. add headlines, your own thoughts, resort citations by topic etc) and zotfile doesn't want to overwrite your modifica

Zotfile is great - but is it standard behaviour that it makes a new note with the extracted annotations every time you run "extract notations"? I would expect the new note to overwrite the old one?

I have just upgraded to Zotero 4.0.27 (Firefox 38, Ubuntu) and Zotfile pdf comment extraction seems to be broken. Extraction process starts (green sign), though nothing happens... Fortunately I have a

is there a way to modify the way of extracting annotations in Zotfile. Unfortunately, it extracts the notes and highlights in the order of their creation. But I'd rather have them with respect to thei

I don't think Zotero devs are very keen on messing with the note editors right-click menu, which is all third party code. That said, are you aware of ZotFile's Extract annotation feature? Instead of c

ZotFile/Zotero rely entirely on built-in mozilla functions to access and save files, so if there's a problem, it's there.

So from this empirical evidence I conclude that there was nothing wrong with the pdf files themselves, the drives, the file systems, or with the network connections. Somehow the interface between the

1. These are pdf's I'm adding to Zotero. So initially they're stored completely outside of Zotero. Some are on the hard drive of my computer; others are on a departmental server. Using Zotfile, I am a

1) when notes are extracted, I am left with ugly double line breaks between lines. I am using Pdf x-change viewer to make the notes; is it program-related, or is it a general problem with zotfile?<br

If you store files as links, just link to the same file from both items, shouldn't cause any problems as long as you don't auto-change the link with ZotFile afterwards.

Moreover, I'm having errors like this on two different computers, attaching two entirely different files, and the only time I run into trouble is when I use Zotfile to rename the file and move it to t

This may be a challenging problem. I've been using Zotfile for about a week without any problems. Yesterday I started getting error messages like the following whenever I try to Rename Attachments:

I setup zotero and zotfile with dropbox a 2 years ago so that pdfs were stored in a dropbox folder and were accessible from multiple computers using the linked attachment base directory

Thanks, I do use ZotFile, if I see the error again and if I see the same ZotFile I'll take it up in the ZotFile thread.

For 4) ZotFile is the easiest option here if you don't want to sync and/or install other software. If syncing (which you really should promote) is an option, you can have a look at papership

I've heard Zotfile mentioned frequently and have seen this nice introductory post -https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/5301/zotfile-zotero-plugin-to-rename-move-and-attach-pdfs-send-them-to-ipad-extr
