# ZOTERO
|
|
|
|
Zotero can extract native pdf annotations and sync them with obsidian.
|
|
## obsidian plugin usage
|
|
|
|
From obsidian, run the command prompt and run `zotero: templated`.
|
|
This opens a prompt that asks you which papers to import.
|
|
After having done that, the corresponding notes will be synced/created.
|
|
Note that any text written below the `summary` section, is not persistent. Write any persistent stuff preferably directly below the title.
|
|
## setup
|
|
|
|
1. Install the two plugins from `p/zotero` into zotero.
|
|
2. Go through the [zotfile setup](https://zotfile.com/index.html#how-to-install--set-up-zotfile) for syncing files to external devices. It basically boils down to configuring the correct settings under `tools -> zotfile preferences`.
|
|
3. Install the bibtex citation format in zotero under `edit -> preferences -> cite -> get additional styles...`
|
|
4. Install the obsidian zotero plugin and configure an input format that takes zotero/template.md as template and the bibtex citation format.
|
|
5. Make sure the input format's (attachment) filenames go explicitly into the zotero folder.
|
|
6. You should be good now.
|
|
|
|
## mobile sync
|
|
|
|
With zotfile properly installed, you can right click any paper and do `Manage Attachments ... -> Send to Tablet`.
|
|
Now a pdf will be created in the folder that you specified during the zotfile setup (probably `p/zotero`).
|
|
You can sync this folder with another device (using autosync or git or whatever), edit on that device and sync back.
|
|
Then, in zotero right click the paper again and do `Manage Attachments ... -> Get from Tablet`
|
|
Now, any annotations should be incorporated into zotero, and _should_ then be able to be synced into obsidian, though this hasn't been tested yet.
