Hello? @evernote? Will someone let us know about this one? It is a hugely important feature for a lot of people and their workflow.

I, too, would love this feature. In the meantime, here's my workaround: I add a reminder to the note, using the alarm clock button at the top of the note I want to pin. From the Evernote page about that function: "Reminders appear in a to-do list pinned at the top of your note list where they can be sorted, marked as complete, and more. You can opt to receive email alerts on the day timed reminders are due. Once you've completed a task associated with a reminder, check it off in the reminders list. Checking off a reminder does not delete the original note." Hope that helps! MB

Whoops. Ignore previous post in this space. Just realized that @jefito meant he moved this whole discussion elsewhere ...

Sure. Back in the old days of about a year ago or more, you could hit "print" and a very pretty version popped up so that you could print -- or clip -- a very nice version of the page. When that's an option, it works perfectly for clipping. Now, however, many sites offer a print option that forces a printer dialog pop-up. The clunky workaround I've found in those cases is to "print" as a saved PDF, then upload that PDF to Evernote. As I said, it's clunky, but often the best-looking option for saving an article that includes publication name, date, author, etc. I sure wish Evernote offered a clipping option that included all those things without the extra steps. Hope that helps. MB

(repost of my comment posted here, in hopes of finding others who are interested in this issue) I very much need the same things mentioned by the OP. This issue most often comes up when I clip from news sites. What I need: A clipped article, complete with publication name, headline, date and author's name -- preferably without the side columns of additional articles, random ads at the bottom, etc. I need this in order to share those articles, often combined into a packet of articles. Publications that offer "print versions" of individual articles solve the issue for me. I can clip a perfect-looking article, with all the needed elements, for saving and sharing. The issue is that not all publications do this. Therefore, using Evernote, my choices are: 1.) Clip as an "article," which keeps the date and the authors, but strips out the publication name. To @DTLow, I understand that I could add in the information myself, but that is cumbersome when clipping numerous items. Also, this leaves me unable to keep the font/style/etc. of the publication name, which makes the clipped article look better for printing, sharing, etc. 2.) Clip as a "simplified article," which strips out the date and the authors in addition to leaving out the publication name. In short, "simplified article" ought to include all the basics of identification: Publication name, headline, date and author's name, as well as the article itself.

In short, "simplified article" ought to include all the basics of identification: Publication name, headline, date and author's name, as well as the article itself. ex. 1 - "ARTICLE" -- Captures authors' names and dates, along with sidebar links and other extraneous information; does not capture "The New York Times" from the top of the page, which only shows up if you choose "full page." ex. 2 - "SIMPLIFIED ARTICLE" - Does not capture publication name, date or author's name.

I also would love this feature. And don't get me started on my desire to have specific notebooks with encryption for all inside that notebook. I completely understand OP's problem. He doesn't want to encrypt all other client info, but doesn't want it popping up. I also frequently have people looking over my shoulder at Evernote contents that I have pulled up for them. Tags don't solve the problem, because if I do a search -- which is very, very often -- items with other tags will show up. And I might need to find something that isn't tagged with X client's name, because it is associated with another project and doesn't carry that tag. @Dan F -- Love this solution for some issues, like the specific one you mention. But wouldn't help me in the day to day, since there is stuff I do want regular access to -- including some of those times when someone is reading on with me -- but don't want to pop up when I perform a search. Hiding a picture in iPhoto is a perfect analogy. The only workaround that helps me is encrypting those notes that I don't want to pop up. OP could encrypt all client files, and unencrypt the ones associated with the "Jones" tag when OP has meetings set with Jones. That keeps those contents out of the search list. (Not sure if this is only Premium enabled.) BUT, it's less than 100% ideal for me because that makes all those notes unsearchable and I would like to be able to search them when I choose to do so ... which brings me back to wanting a notebook in which everything is encrypted. In my dream world, that notebook can be included in a global search, or searched by itself, with the same encryption PW.

@SoftwareMarcus Hi, Marcus: I'm sure that you've now followed this thread and see how mnay people want this feature! Do you have any updates for us? We're desperate! Thanks!

First, thank you, thank you, thank you for addressing this issue! I could weep with joy! I didn't realize there were so many options! I will try to explain what I need and then see if I can choose between your options. I have bad eyesight. BUT, I do not want to change the default font! This is because I often share, print and cut and paste from my notes and don't want the text to appear giant to those with whom I share the information. As for your choices -- are they mutually exclusive? I can think of different times I would like to use a few of them. 1) This is what I thought I wanted. I wanted the note to reflow as long as it would reflow back when I closed the note, so that I could share/print/cut & paste, etc. 2) This sounds awkward. Sounds like when I edited, it would throw off the flow when I'm reading/editing and then, after I edited, it sounds like the note would have odd spacings and such after I shrunk back down to normal size. Also not sure what scrollbars really add. 3) This might be what I actually want. But to answer your question: Nope. I actually don't think I want images increased -- especially if the "real" note would print/email, etc. in regular 12 or 14 pt. font. See above -- I don't want to change the font because it makes it awkward even just to cut and paste from my note into a presentation, etc. 4) Sounds good to me! Although it would be nice if this were independent of note size, i.e. I could change the note size to larger, for ease of working on it. For the lists, I don't mind it being a bit smaller, so I can see more on one screen. Since I don't need to work with the doc. list in the same way, I can handle it in a smaller size. 5) Independently of font size, this would be a great feature! I often use Evernote on my phone. Thank you, thank you again! I'm a premium user and I'm desperate to be able to see my notes better!

I love Evernote. I'm an Evernote evangelist. But it is shocking that I have more ability to manipulate the text in this reply box than I do on Evernote for IOS. Even crazier is that I cannot make my desktop readable without changing the font, which is a drag, since you have to remember to change it back before doing anything else with it. Please, please, Evernote, don't make me put my premium dollars elsewhere!
