+1 for inking on windows (surface etc).188BET靠谱吗Recently made the switch to zotero 6 and the inbuilt pdf reader is so good.This could be the cherry on top with possibility to switch it on and off if the ink goes over the text of the document for readability.
188BET靠谱吗I set Xournal++ as my default PDF reader then tell Zotero to use the system default.188BET靠谱吗Opening the PDF from Zotero should now open it in Xournal++.I annotate the file then save the .xopp (annotation) file in the same directory as the original PDF.188BET靠谱吗(I had originally hoped that doing this would make Zotero sync the annotations automatically but this isn't the case.)
This works well if you:
1.Don't need to share annotations across devices, and
2.188BET靠谱吗Can figure out a way to back up the annotations because Zotero doesn't sync everything in the PDF directory.
You can also annotate then overwrite the original PDF to ensure your annotations are synced.For (2) a local backup drive would work!188BET靠谱吗close Zotero and back up the underlying directory structure once a week, or month or however often.

An alternative is to use MS Edge as your PDF reader.This way the ink annotations are stored as part of the PDF file and can actually be viewed in other PDF readers.For example, I could use Edge on Linux and Xodo on Android and the annotations would persist.Unfortunately this made the files huge.
-
188BET靠谱吗I've since started using the built-in PDF reader in Zotero as I was getting more and more stressed about losing my annotations (I actually did have a data loss incident and lost a tonne of work).Now I just wish I could see these annotations in Android but there's only so many things the dev team can do at once.
Upgrade Storage
I'm on linux and inking is the only thing which holds me back.
@refmitchell:
188BET靠谱吗how exactly do you fuse xournal with zotero?
Badly.I wouldn't say they're fused.

Would be very helpful to keep track of annotated documents
