This is the trick which keeps Zotero and docear in step. Then I set it to export straight to the docear.bib database which is displayed inside docear. (This will be slow with a big database though). Installed autozotbib which instantly saves an updated bibtext export of the Zotero database as soon as you change it.Zotero doesn’t change the location of the actual file when you do this, so links in docear stay pure. I use folders and subfolders in zotero to keep them organised. by dragging and dropping, and delete the originals. I just import them straight into zotero e.g. Agreed with myself that in the case of unpublished project pdfs, I won’t keep separate copies in the filesystem at all.
DOCEAR FREE NODES PDF
Agreed with myself that my primary way of making notes on a doc is with pdf annotations.Unfortunately, docear can’t import highlights made in foxit. This is great for annotating, and also supports opening the pdf at the correct page when you double-click on an imported annotation in docear. Installed Foxit reader under Wine as my pdf reader.I want to have access to the same bunch of references both from zotero and from docear.If I reorganise my pdfs in different folders, the links in docear musn’t break.I need to be able to reorganise them from time to time into different subfolders and also import any annotations I have made in them. I use both academic references and pdfs but also (often large numbers of) plain unpublished pdfs and other documents related to projects I am working on.
DOCEAR FREE NODES HOW TO
This is very useful! You can double-click on the parent node and the document opens in some cases you can click on the child node and go straight to your comment in the pdf.īut it has taken me about a week to work out how to manage this process in detail.
