![]() So far, I have to index a folder and then do replicate manually to add them to groups. So, I can have references rather than copying PDFs to the database. A preference on DT that allows change the default drag and drop from copy to replicate.I have found that DT is very good to keep notes and help overall with research. Hi Bernardo, thank you for your interest. ![]() ![]() bib file and makes a very nice sheet out of it, but it seems it cannot show the MacOS links stored in them.Ĭan anyone help me to understand if I am missing something here? Am I doing something in the way it is not supposed to be done? bib file with some special Base64tags to store MacOS links. I have tried this AppleScript and I have not been able to make it work.īibDesk does not use a database, it seems just a simple. I do not understand however, why BibDesk integration is so difficult or not standard in DT. This is a very big plus for using DT to sort PDFs for example. It seems that if I Index a folder inside DT moving PDFs inside DT do not cause troubles to BibDesk BibDesk can find them anyway. It seems that version 3 is even better and I am deeply considering coming back. Programs like Skim, do their highlights in the file metadata and only BibDesk is able to read it.ĭevonThink is very good at managing searches and PDFs. The second one, is that it can read comments/notes written in metadata. Files are stored using Mac OS aliases, so you can move them in the Finder without breaking BibDesk’s links. The first one is that once a PDF is added to BibDesk, the app can find it even if the document is moved in the Finder. BibDesk support is very important in my opinion because it is widely used in the Academic world since it is free it is actively maintained and has two very distinct characteristics. One of those things was BibDesk integration. In the past I used DT2 but I stopped using it because some things that were very important to were missing.

This does require you to set up an exportMarkdown template in BibDesk first. Just cooked up this which is a bit more elegant IMHO.
