ileo 8 Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 hey guys! So I am just starting to actually use Evernote in a responsible way 😇. If I open a PDF in preview using the eye icon on the PDF and press CMD+S to save, it offers me a place to save it. Expectation is that open in a pdf viewer/editor (like preview) and edit and press Save and it saves back to the file in the note. I am expecting this behavior based on posts in Evernote for Windows and Mac. Link to comment

ileo 8 Posted May 13, 2020 Author Share Posted May 13, 2020 I do that too. But when I press Cmd+S, I get this - which informs me the file is not saving back to evernote. Link to comment

Agreed, the updated PDF is saving to the Download folder Just to check, use the File > Save menu Are you using current versions of Evernote and Preview? Link to comment

Tried using "Save" in the menu, still brought up save location box. And, yes, 10.15.4 Catlina and Preview version 11.0 (999.4) and Evernote is the App Store version but it is 7.14 as well - this is what I got on the app store version - version 7.14 (458265 App Store) Sorry about the delay in response, I have an extension that prevents me from using the reply box that I had to troubleshoot.

ileo 8 Posted May 17, 2020 Author Share Posted May 17, 2020 @DTLow - do you have the App Store version on Mac or a direct download? I assume you don't have the same PDF saving issue right? Link to comment

Already opened support ticket. Thanks! Link to comment
