"snap back" for local PDFsby justin doran - 04:47AM, Mar 07, 2010 |

Hello, over the next few months I will be doing research and pouring over several hundred PDFs, webpages, and videos. I love that I can clip sections of webpages to Notebook and then get a snap-back feature. My problem is when it comes to all my local PDF documents. I can clip them, but not snap back to them. Right now the only thing I can think of doing is clipping and then quickly dragging the PDF doc into notebook and saving it as a reference. Unfortunately, this is getting very frustrating as I find myself sometimes saving the same PDF to several different pages in my Notebook. Is there a simpler way of doing all this? I really need the ability to quickly find the source of a given article in my Notebook. I tried to search in the forum and through the help section but I had no luck. Thanks for any help, Justin |

Ahh, just answered my own question. I’m guessing I couldn’t snap back because I was not the creator of the PDF…or at least that’s what I think. I have just downloaded skim for my mac which allows me to edit PDFs regardless of account privileges and the snap-back feature magically works!

Off topic….. I was browsing the posts and read this one & saw the mention of ”skim”. I looked it up and it is truly useful! Thanks for posting! I was lucky to see this.
