Removing the colon from the collection name fixed the issue. (I'm running Windows 7, Zotero 4.0.8 and Zotfile 2.3.5.) It would be great if Zotfile could remove the colons and other illegal Windows cha

If you want to do this for one item, you can already do so by right click -> View Online. Then download the file and use Zotfile to add it to the current item.

Option 1: Yes, it could be current tab. If you want to do this for one item, you can already do so by right click -> View Online. Then download the file and use Zotfile to add it to the current item.

It could be possible to code this as a plugin. After you have figured a way to get the PDF to the computer, then adapting Zotfile code to import the new file would be straightforward.

syncing and Dropbox-based file management with Zotfile. In the end, I opted for WebDav syncing, but both solutions work well. This honestly has been one of the biggest loads off my shoulders in terms

Other alternatives are to use ZotFile to rename and move the files to one folder, which can be a network drive. Some users have had success with dropbox sync, but this is not without problems.

I am still confused (sorry) on the options relative to the storage of files, and what can I achieve with zotfile.

3) All PDFs are saved locally, they only go online via sync. If you want to automatically move PDFs to a location outside of the Zotero storage folder, look at Zotfile.

2) Make the file a linked file by using the "Export to tablet" feature (You need to specify the target folder in Zotfile preferences)

Ah, now I understand what you are trying to do. No,I don't think that is supported (but I'm not the developer). However, the commands to move the file are a single line in the ZotFile script. You coul

I'm using Zotero standalone version 4.0.8 in Ubuntu 12.04, and Zotfile version 2.3.5.

Are you using zotero storage/webdav, or are you also storing your files elsewhere and linking to them zotfile-style?

Zotfile is AMAZING, really like it~!!! :)

Zotfile is the (only) way to go & it does work to do that, can't tell you why it doesn't work for you.

OK, so since you are now listening (or reading), can you you tell me if it is possible to automatically download a pdf to a folder/directory other than the default storage folder in the Zotero data fo
