This gave me  the will to make a Medium post - thank you @gazumped

Notes > Settings > Camera > Document File Format - choose PDF (or Images & PDF)

Great! Thanks - I knew an option had to me somewhere - it would make sense for devs to this thing of inverse order all the time (they knew that wouldn't be how users want to scan things). Awesome! 

I tried and by changing on the fly on the icon on top right it works as expected if it's a doc or an image.

Thanks @gazumped

how do you use the Edit option on Windows?

right-click on the picture I want to crop » 'Edit with Photos' » crop and save - was this you looking for?

open Evernote and add a new camera note,

that's how I use it, and it's when the pages are swapped. I wonder if it is related to uploading issues were lighter photos will upload faster and thus causing a change in the order; 

I test this again just now, and it appears that the order that the photos are added is inverse to the order you take them: the first one goes to the bottom of the note and the last one stays on top. Maybe there is an option to change this somewhere...

Have you tried the EN Annotate tool

yes, that's the one I've experience with - works, but could work much better I guess - sometimes I just crop with Edit option on Windows to be faster than in Evernote

Thanks

Hi.  When you say 'scan',  how are you generating the images?  In Evernote's camera feature? Your device camera? A third party app?  And are these JPG or PNG images, or PDF pages?

I just noticed this - lets call it bug - using the built-in camera yes.

Evernote supports the generation of public links for notes

Yep, I forgot, moved down! Thanks

Select all notes,  then use "create table of contents" to generate a list of the notes which includes links to each note

Yeah, that is what I do sometimes but when things get overwhelming its just too many click, in my opinion. I say this because when you do an IFTTT in some cases you have the option to append (or at least I saw that feature before); so, why would it be possible to do with web clipper? (maybe the code is hard, and I get it)

Hello,

anyway to avoid the change of order of scanned documents?

Almost every time a scan a document with more than 2 pages  when the respective images are added to the note their order is scrambled - its a bit frustrating to try take the photos in order and then chaos.

Thank you

Hello everyone!

Finally, I took some time to write this down - been thinking about this for over two years; the time that has passed since I began my PhD - or, 600 notes after.

Evernote has been my notetaking and file keeping app for six years now. I began to use it more heavily during my master's, but, now with the PhD demands are higher. 

With this post, I am aiming to share how I use it has a PhD student and share my overall experience with Evernote.

So, for other PhD students out there here is how I use my Evernote - we few examples:

• folders are structured like trees:
  • PhD
    • PhD- meetings
    • PhD- literature review
    • PhD- lab notes
    • (...)

In the same fashion are the tags

• PhD
  • PhD: meetings
    • PhD:meetings: with supervisor
  • PhD: experiments
    • PhD: experiments: experiment 1
    • (...)

Here are the things I miss that would improve my experience:

• web clips that can be appended to a note
  • for example, when I am doing a literature review would be nice to have all link for the papers in the same note; ordered as I am going through the search
• better calendar integration with Outlook and/or Gmail
  • having all the tasks and events in the same calendar (both in the smartphone and desktop; not just in the smartphone)
• Scannable for Android
• smoother image editing (e.g. cropping)
  • sometimes its a bit frustrating the time spent to crop a picture
• OneDrive integration (similar to Google Drive)
  • would be great to add files without having to create sharing links all the time
• more highlight colours (at least two more)
  • because it's just useful to have different colours for different concepts
• bigger files per note 
  • for example, I can't save all data from one experiment in the same note

And here are the things I love (and can't live without them):

• file search
• OCR in photos
• saved searches
• coloured tag
  • great for glancing what is done or not
• Gmail and Outlook clipper
• Internal links
  • this is great to index drafts, pictures and experiment results from one note only
• custom templates
• import folders to a notebook (don't use this often now) 
  • use this to import '.pdf' of papers into Evernote, where I then write notes and share it with my peers
• publish the notes with a link
  • great to share protocols and guides for new students

If I am missing something that is already implemented, sorry - and let me know.

happy notetaking, 

Leonardo
