Where does Evernote store PDF exports for individual notes (mac)


dejswa

Idea

Apple Mac - most recent OS and Evernote version

File -> Export note to PDF 

Creates a dialog that does not allow me to select the file destination. No problem . . . but I cannot find the file in any capacity of searching for the new file, the content or looking in the common places on my Mac. I just don't think it is even creating a file. I've searched this topic thoroughly. 

Where on the Mac does E-note do PDF exports?

BTW, If I do a File -> print to PDF - I get the same dialog that does not seem to export anything.

And . . . E-note setting do not have a preferred directory for export, for ex, like some applications do.

TY.

I just did a computer search for all PDF files by 'date added' and date created and it does not show up. I tested this by creating a pdf file from other app and the search worked well. 

E-note is simply not creating an export.

Suggestions?

Thank you for the reply. One would think that you should get a dialogue asking for the file location, but I get none. And I just presume that it has saved it somewhere but apparently it does not. So there are a couple of possibilities. One is that the function just terminates before it gets to the save as dialogue or the other is that it does not have a save as dialogue and, also does not save the file. By the way, this is on McIntosh so it might be different if you were using the PC. And as I mentioned, I looked in the preferences to see if there was a preferred folder, but apparently that is not an option.

Actually I am working Mac (and Linux) only.

But I gave up on EN legacy quite a time ago. I don’t even have a client installed any more since more than 2 years. What I can tell is from memory only !

If you were logged into your account in the client before you paused, and never logged out, you can take the Mac offline. Then the client can access the existing local database.

But if you have logged out, this path is permanently closed, because there is no server any more to authorize a new login.

As told I am not aware (which tells I could be ignorant about it) of a way to make the Mac legacy client believe the password has been entered and authorized, without the server answering the call.
