I am trying to figure out a way to access the PDF attachment that I've stored in my dropbox using zotfile for multiple computers' zotero standalone.

on github to check how zotfile deals with these links. I think on windows zotfile uses something like "[path to pdf reader] /A page=[page] [path to file]" but I would have to check in detail to be su

Thanks for the reply. Is there a log file I can enable/grab? And should it be for zotfile or zotero? I don't know where to look to find out how the macro 'zotero://open-pdf/0_82XHCMN9/5' is expande

likely just that the PDF opening command ZotFile uses to identify your PDF reader and open the file at the appropriate location doesn't work on Windows XP--pretty sure no one ever tested that. Your se

I am working my way through utilizing zotero for indexing and searching pdf files with its highlights and notes. I am currently using zotero v 4.0.25.2 and zotfile 4.3.2 on a windows xp pro sp3 machi

You probably should take this to a new thread since your questions are about Zotero's export, not ZotFile.

madhavan.chalat is correct. Zotfile certainly does not change the location of your zotero database. The only possible way that your zotero database (the sqlite file) ends up on dropbox is that you man
