(Archived) Trouble dragging pdf INTO Evernote

[rsteinmuller 0]

Hello everyone. I'm new to this board so please excuse me if this query has already been covered. I couldn't find anything by searching . On several occasions, I have NOT been able to drag a pdf file INTO my Mac desktop client. At other times I could. Once, I succeeded by opening the pdf in Preview and saving it as a pdf, which then was "draggable". But on two other occasions that didn't work.

In those two cases I was able to successfully e-mail the pdf's into Evernote, and they showed up on my desktop client after synchronization.

Any explanation, or solutions?

Thanks

How big are the PDF files?

Hi Metrodon,

The most recent one was 3.6Mb. I don't recall the earlier one.

First, make sure you're trying to drop the file on either:

- Evernote's dock icon

- A notebook on the left side of the main Evernote window

- Into the body of a note

If one of those fails, I'd be curious about the other two.
