Level 5* gazumped 11,522 Posted March 19, 2017 Level 5* Share Posted March 19, 2017 Hi. Is it a big PDF file? If you exceeded your note size limit, or upload limit for the month you would have problems; and sometimes bigger files just take a while to import and appear in the note. You could try attaching the file via the paperclip icon, or even just drag and drop it to the desktop first, then into the note. For reasons best known to Windows clipboard, dropping things to the desktop first sometimes helps. How to attach a file in a note What are the system limits of Evernote? Link to comment

I drag from explorer, once it crosses into evernote the universal red NO symbol appears and it does not work, I know of several drop areas in Evernote for Windows client: inside a note in the note editor (the note body, not in the note title or editing toolbar) your note list (the actual list, not the reminders panel) On a notebook in the notebook list in the left panel There may be others. Have you tried the above? Link to comment
TIddly27 39 Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Dropping in note list creates a new note. I am attempting to add to the note body Do not want to drop in notebook list, adds a new note as in item one above. This used to work just fine, suddenly I can no longer drag and drop a file into an existing note. Link to comment
TIddly27 39 Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Oddly enough, NOW if I have the note open, I can drag and drop the file. But I can not in the note panel. I could do this before, but can no longer, what a PAIN! Link to comment

I tested this before I wrote my reply. Make sure that you're not trying to drag the PDF onto reminders (i.e., close the reminders panel) if you're using Snippet, Card, or Thumbnail view. Note that if you're trying to drag onto one of the list views, you cannot drag it onto the first entry in the list, for some reason, which seems like a small bug. Link to comment
