How to open a specific attachment?

Post by vedtopkar »

Hi all,

Loving Bookends so far as a former Papers, then Zotero user.

I often have more than one attachment per entry: the main text PDF and one or more corresponding supplementary information PDFs. At the moment, it's not clear to me how to select which attachment to open? When you right click, selecting any option from the "Open Attachments With" menu opens all attachments with the selected program. This can sometimes be cumbersome when there are many attachments.

Any advice would be appreciated!

There are several answers to this general question, but in your case the most straightforward way would be to right click on the double paper clip icon in the reference list and select the PDF you want to open.

Aha!

Thanks. Didn't realize that right-clicking on the double paper clip threw up a different menu than right-clicking on the item itself.
