![]() I like to extract selected material word for word so that I have the option to insert an extended quote in the book or other articles. Note, my notes are copied and pasted, not yet summarized in my own words, which is my next task. Below is an example of the result as shown in DT and my notes. There may be a more efficient way (I’M OPEN TO SUGGESTIONS) but this works. This works extremely well when this process is needed. My main problem is wrapping my head around the way the program works. Considering that I have 21 years worth of computer files, I decided to buy it. After I’d highlighted the key points from the articles I selected and copied the highlights from the DT OCRed PDFs and pasted them to my Obsidian research folder.

I had my EA scan the selected articles and send them to me for reading over the weekend (I do my book research and writing over the weekend). ![]() I need Bookends on my ipad, so im pretty much obliged to use icloud sync. This means Bookends hosts the PDFs, in a folder that is indexed by Devonthink. ![]() I recently read a series of HBR articles dealing with conflict and polarization in the workplace (one of my book chapters deals with conflict and criticism). I had the same issues as you, and after lots of browsing forums etc, i do the following: - Bookends rules over my academic literature. One of my primary utility uses is file conversion and OCR. Research Broaden Your Knowledge When you do research on the web, do it right with DEVONagent Pro. I have.īut, I use DT extensively as a utility. As a consequence, many of us have moved to programs like Obsidian to manage our research files and notes. Much of the discussion has centered on sync issues and lost and or corrupted files.
