blackcows 9 Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 In an effort to continue to consolidate as many things as possible into EN I have begun to move some program files into EN such as Word documents, Excel documents, etc. Is it possible to add multiple files to one note such as 3 or 4 pdf files or several Word documents?

Level 5* GrumpyMonkey 4,318 Posted December 25, 2012 Level 5* Share Posted December 25, 2012 Hi Mike. Please see my post in your other thread () for some thoughts on your plan, but in regards to this particular question, please remember that there are note size limits (they currently vary considerably, as I understand, because Evernote is in the midst of a soft rollout of raised limits -- Premium users for Mac currently have a 100MB limit). Test everything before you erase any files (actually, as you'll see in my other post, I don't recommend erasing anything). Link to comment

If you turn off syncing and experiment a bit, you'll get the hang of it without chewing up your upload allowance.http://evernote.com/evernote/guide/windows/#2 Link to comment
blackcows 9 Posted December 26, 2012 Author Share Posted December 26, 2012 Thanks for the replies, now I understand how to do this. While I have used EN for about a year my workflow was the opposite, I would drag files into an import folder and then allowed EN to upload them. I had never added them to a new note in EN but now I know how to do that. Thanks again,Mike Link to comment

It is easier to track them.Because Evernote does not search Word doc. files, I usually open them, then copy the text into an Evernote note. This allows Evernote search to work on the data.And if the original file is important, I throw it into the same note. Link to comment
TeePee 3 Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 I don't get it. I copy multiple PDFs to a note but can only read the first attachment. How do I access the 2nd? Link to comment
C6REW 416 Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Hi TeePee, You shouldn't have any problem. This is a simple case of drag to the Note and you should see the pdf's as separate icons or already open. Have you scrolled down the Note to see if the other/s are there also? Try the obvious of re booting. Also let us know what client and Evernote version you are using. Best regards Chris Link to comment
TeePee 3 Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Thanks for the reply Chris, As I mentioned I don't see icons; I see the document already opened in the [Evernote provided Foxit] PDF reader. The only controls I see are the reader controls which take me to the end of the document, not to the other document. I am using Evernote for Windows. All the best Tim Link to comment
C6REW 416 Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Hi Tim, Right click the pdf document you can see and select 'view as attachment' You should now see the pdf document as an icon and possibly your other document will be open. You can then right click that and do the same. Best regards Chris Link to comment
C6REW 416 Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Hi Tim, I should add that you are likely as not seeing all the documents as you scroll down, but maybe thinking that it is just the first document and the 'other' pages. Once you have done what I suggest above, I am sure it will be much clearer. Best regards Chris Link to comment
TeePee 3 Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Ah yes, I'm with you now. Thanks very much for your help Chris Cheers Tim Link to comment
