That part of Zotfile functionality has been incorporated into Zotero itself using the new note editor in Zotero 6. Annotations are automatically extracted when you view the item in the Zotero pdf read

Note that if you have a WEBDAV or Zotfile Custom Location for linked files, your total files storage also includes how much is stored in those locations (but that content would not be synced online to

That doesn't look like Zotero renaming at all, regardless of the doubled .pdf -- you're sure you're not using ZotFile setting for rename?

I figured out I can rename the pdfs with zotfile, so I have that part under control now.

For example, I tried to import doi:10.1007/JHEP04(2023)117, and the PDF file will be downloaded automatically. I followed exactly what you mentioned "Tools\Zotfile Preferences\Advanced Settings - Remo

Zotfile has a special setting for diacritics - Tools\Zotfile Preferences\Advanced Settings - Remove Special Characters (diacritics) From Filename. Is that what you tried ?

Previously, I tried to rename files systematically with the plugin Zotfile, but it did not work. At the moment, I solve the issue by rename them by hand as what was suggested by you.

If you want Zotfile functionality, you will still need to install it (you just don't need to *re*install it after going from the beta to the stable release). Specifically, Zotero 6 provides all functi

As a general principle, you should always fully document your Zotfile setup though. While it's unlikely that anything will change in this scenario, there are other scenarios where you might not have a

I set up linked files with ZotFile - will they remain linked and will my preferences be preserved or will I need to set it up again?

The Zotfile plugin (zotfile.com) allows you to set up a watched folder. As per the Zotfile page:

So an update to this... It looks like ZotFile works with particular types of articles on the web.

@dstillman: You (maybe) missed to mention, that to create the annotations Export as Markdown, you start with PDF Annotations in the Zotero PDF Viewer (or from other apps) and then need to "Add Note fr

I think the right approach would really be to wrap ZotFile functionality into Zotero instead of relying on an add-on that's great but not maintained and thus also poorly supported in case of bugs.

I support what was said above, about the need to be able to continue using Zotfile in Zotero 7.

I was thinking of making a post like this, thanks @iagogv. Hopefully its not to hard for Zotero team to help with the transition because it’d be really great to have Zotfile working on Zotero 7.
