Services menu missing

Post by mnvwvnm »

Considering the recent problems with the PDFKit on macOS sierra, is this the reason for the missing contextual Services menu on the pdf preview files?
I select some text in pdf file, right-click and no "services" item available. The same happens with other apps like Devonthink, Preview and Skim!
:(
Any idea?
Thanks.

No idea, those menus are created by the OS, not Bookends.

But what options do you want? The Action popup let's you do lots of things with the PDF (e.g. open it in another app).

Hi Jon,

For example, I want to use services provided by Devonthink (Add to; Save to...), Excerptor (Excerpt to...), etc. A very useful actions to do with pdfs files.
Open with... (Preview or Skim) isn't a solution: same problem. (I didn't mention Acrobat because "services" never worked in this app).

Well, waiting for sierra news :(

Thanks.
