I realize that the PDF viewer is still very new, but perhaps a feature could also be added to trim out pages outside the scope of the specific section. I typically do this outside of zotero as part of

How would one achieve the reverse of this? That is, import PDFs linked in Zotero into BibDesk? I use ZotFile and BetterBibTeX for Zotero, and I'm trying to point BibDesk to the Zotero library because

This is some sort of misunderstanding. I'm saying you can just export the note in HTML mode, which will preserve the spans you've added to the note template (i.e., the "lovely squares of colour"). Mar

When I add a new Zotero entry from Chrome, Zotfile successfully moves and renames it to my specified new location, but it leaves behind a dead link to the old location. Any idea how to fix this? It's

I do agree that there should be a way to export highlight colors--it seems odd that they get lost. Zotfile export highlight colors.

What I'm not sure about is what ZotFile does with the existing attachment item when you use Get from Tablet. It's possible it just copies in the modified PDF file itself, in which case the externally

ZotFile doesn't know anything about annotations created within Zotero, which are stored in the Zotero database. If you're using an external PDF reader elsewhere, you'll likely want to use an external

Otherwise, you want to use the Send to Tablet and Retrieve from Tablet functions from Zotfile. This should not create 2 different versions of the file.

When reading a longer piece I export it to tablet via Zotfile for reading and annotation in the evening and return it to Zotero in the morning for reading and annotations on the computer. Then there i

Again, you should use the built-in annotation functionality in Zotero 6. ZotFile is no longer what you use for this.

I have added it into the zotfile zip file - took me a bit as I am using MacOS so it involved expanding the zip file, replacing the .js file and recompressing.

I will follow up on this (and the former discussion on this topic), because I still can't get my workflow to work after Zotfile was replaced. So I am hoping to find some help here.

Annotations are automatically extracted by Zotero’s PDF reader now, so using Zotfile’s function is no longer required

In Zotero 6, is it still possible to enable Zotfile's Extract pdf annotation function?

I can't help you with ZotFile, but you can check the file in Google Drive on your computer before you run Get from Tablet to see whether the annotations are present. If not, they just weren't saved pr

I am kind of aware that zotero is just one probable station of this error. However, it keeps happening when I am using the get from tablet function and it's also zotfile that then deletes the file fro

I had sent the attachment via zotfile to my google drive, made the annotations on my android tablet with acrobat reader, and then use zotfile to get the file back to zotero to extract the annotations

The linked thread was about ZotFile's rename-and-move feature, which while Zotero 6 was in beta would delete annotations created in Zotero's new PDF reader. That was fixed before Zotero 6 was released

Just to update this old thread from the Zotero 6 beta period, before Zotero 6 was released ZotFile was updated to not delete Zotero-created annotations when moving attachments, so this no longer occur
