I have been working with Jon offline (great support, Jon) and here is a summary of what we have found. The online instructions for this migration (export Papers3 repository as XML, import into Bookends, move Papers3 files into Bookends folders) will only give you the unannoted pdfs from Papers3. Thi...

Oh well. That doesn't work, as the above discussion documents. That links you to the pdfs maintained in your Papers3 library, without any annotation. It does NOT look in the default directory, probably because the xml file says to look in the Papers3 directory. And when I do the steps described abov...

Let's start over on this thread. In Papers3, list all papers, highlight them all (cmd-A), click on File/Export/PDFs. Specify a directory (I used ~/Documents/Bookends/Attachments). Now, how to I import all those PDFs into Bookends? Is there a way to create a new library with all those pdfs, and with ...

I did that, and it does. I'll contact support. I'm sure it's just a silly thing I'm doing wrong.

I think so. Here is a screen shot:

I went to that directory and verified that it DOES have the annotated pdfs

(yes, that's how I exported the PDFs)

OK, I did Remove... Now the attachments tab in Bookends says it can't find the attachments, and gives the Papers3 name. It looks like bookends isn't using the default Bookends attachments directory.

Hi, Jon. I noticed that when I EXPORT pdfs from Papers 3 to Bookends/Attachments, the results are annotated. But Bookends is still using the Papers3 directory as the source for the pdf, so it is picking up the unannotated version. Is there a way to get Bookends to use the Bookends directory (which i...

ok, I've finally had it with Papers3. Why I switched from Bookends in the first place I'll never know. So, how does one do this migration? Following the instructions in the manual and on the webpage uses the Papers3 files for attachments and notes, using a URL for the notes. But the Papers3 files do...

Has anyone developed Automator actions for Bookends?

Are there any plans to add Automator support? This would be very, very nice.

oops. One more question: is there a way to apply this style modification to EVERY publication type? Or do I have to enter this text for each type (journal, conference, etc.) individually?

Wow. That worked like a champ, first time!

I still have some polishing to do to get the format (punctuation) JUST right. But this is exactly what I needed!

Thanks!

I haven't looked into the bookends server functions yet, since my Sysadmin is hesitant to open up servers.

What I would like is to generate html for my bibliography with something like <a href="this part taken from the URL field">pdf file</a>

How do I publish my bibliography with links to my actual papers, using the URL field in the entry?
