    Hm, have you ever considered using Mdnotes and if so, would you be able to compare your workflow with the one it leads to?

    I then extract these highlights and annotations using the Zotfile plug-in, and import them into my literature notes folder in Obsidian. I really liked the Mdnotes plugin for this, but it recently stopped working for me so I re-created the template, which I have to populate manually, and which is structured into three sections: metadata, summary, and key ideas.

    If it's of interest I just found this zotero plugin, Zotero mdnotes, and the joplin plugin Hotfolder, work quite well together.
  • Anyone know of a PDF-annotations to Markdown CLI?
    1 project | /r/Markdown | 9 Mar 2021
    I recently installed the ZotFile and MdNotes plugins to Zotero as described here. The ability to export highlights and other annotations to a .md file is really useful, and makes me think that there must be a CLI out there which does something similar. I ask because ideally I would like to avoid having to go into Zotero, click on the pdf, extract annotations, then export to a .md file, selecting the project folder each time that I want to scrap export my annotations from a pdf. Rather, I'd like to integrate this process into Vim so that when there is some citation I have, I can use the Vimtex context feature to point the pdf-annotations-to-markdown-CLI that I hope exists at whatever pdf is included for that citation. My question is: does anyone know of such a piece of software which does something like this? Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!
