![]() ![]() I do my writing in Scrivener and Word and that part works relatively well. I’d consider doing away with a reference manager entirely but DTP doesn’t offer citation features as far as I know. I’ve tried the notes export scripts for Zotero-DTP and also Skim-DTP but it seems cumbersome and I find it difficult to keep that part of my “workflow” flowing. I do have my Zotero database synced with Box (a free Dropbox competitor) and have tried things like Papership for iPad pdf annotation but it’s all beginning to seem like overkill. Ideally I’d like to set up a shared pdf folder (in the cloud?) that DTP, Zotero AND other apps (Bookends?) could read/write to/from, but I fear data corruption (Zotero advises against it). I’ve considered switching to Bookends for the advantages it offers (pdf viewing / annotation, spotlight searching) but I haven’t yet made the switch. ![]() I currently use a Macbook with DTP that indexes my Zotero standalone pdf database (about 4000 pdfs). I realize this kind of “holy grail” question has been rehearsed countless times but I hope people might still share their advice. Now I’m looking for a simple but efficient workflow with a MINIMAL number of apps. I recently purchased an iPad which I thought I’d use to annotate pdfs more comfortably, away from my desktop setup. (reading/writing between DTP / reference manager - MESS!!!) -> Imported into a ref manager (Zotero) pdf database and indexed by DTP -> Currently my workflow looks something like this:Ĭollection of external data (pdf) sources -> ![]()
