Or use Bibdesk (http://bibdesk.sourceforge.net/) for managing your pdfs and Skim (http://skim-app.sourceforge.net/) for doing the annotations w/out changing actually the PDFs. Both are open source (and Bibdesk can show Skim notes) Niels *who is not keeping PDFs in Yojimbo because of several reasons - annotations are one* -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <yojimbo-talk@barebones.com>.
