Adds Zotero "select" links to attachment files in a Zotero database on macOS, so that outside of Zotero, you can find the bibliographic entry to which a file belongs. (Only works for local storage, not linked attachments.)

Question: using DevonThink ToGo to read / comment / index Zotero files?

rkrug opened this issue · comments

Hi

Zowie sounds great - and I am will try it out but would like to know

  1. if I can index the Zotero pdf folder from DevonThink ToGo, or if I have to use DevonThink for that?
  2. when indexed (by DevonThink or ToGo), can I read the pdfs from DevonThink and from DevonThink ToGo and annotate them?

Thanks a lot,

Rainer

Thanks for your interest.

  1. You have to use DEVONthink. Zowie cannot run on iOS.
  2. Yes. I have a DEVONthink database in which I have an indexed folder of my Zotero contents, with a DEVONthink smart rule to use Zowie to add links to Zotero. I synchronize this DEVONthink database with DTTG on my iPad. I can read the PDFs and annotate them in DEVONthink.

Closing because it doesn't seem like there's more to do on this item. Please feel free to reopen this if I'm wrong.
