After a bit more testing, it's now clear to me that FolderShare 
synchronization software doesn't see any modifications (even though 
Finder does) when notes are saved to the extended attributes of a pdf 
file.

This is the only explanation I can think of for the fact that my 
.skim files are quickly synched from one machine to another after 
each Save in Skim, but the .pdf never is.

I'm taking other precautions, so I know I'm not losing anything to 
the ignorance of the synch software.  But would it be possible to 
have Skim change some additional modification flag on the .pdf file 
when new notes are save to it?  Apparently not all software can 
detect that changes have occurred.

Thanks,
Bill
