ian reeves 2 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 I really need to be able to extract (or at least find) some of the PDFs I have put into evernote, so I can share them with another application (Papers) so that I can cite them in research papers. I know EN doesn't encourage this, but I really need to be able to do this, otherwise I'm going to have to find another app/software. Thanks Ian Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 11,652 Posted August 29, 2018 Level 5* Share Posted August 29, 2018 Hi. AFAIK it is already possible to find PDF files and extract them easily on a desktop. Quote With descriptive search, you can use words you would normally use such as "notes with PDF files tagged 'approved'". Or: search " resource:application/pdf " (without the quotes...) - and see: How to get images or files out of Evernote for use in other applications Link to comment

I understand citing your sources, but not what you mean by "share them". Evernote encourages sharing; you can generate a public url and include the reference in your research papers For example: Sample Note (https://www.evernote.com/l/AAoH6VjLal9BkJ5tMX10BrjrtJFihiG-5ms) is a link to a note in my database that contains a pdf Link to comment
ian reeves 2 Posted August 29, 2018 Author Share Posted August 29, 2018 Thanks for all the help, I've also discovered that I can 'drag' the pdf 'attached' to the EN note to the 'Papers' app in the dock, which then imports it. This means I can search and store in EN, and read and cite in Papers. Thanks superguru - I meant 'sharing' with other apps, not other users, but I will also think about how to use the sharing function too. Link to comment
