I’m reading many pdfs in DEVONthink, and somehow marking the last read location would be very helpful — so I can return to the last read page and continue reading.
I know there is no standard for bookmarking pdfs, which contradicts DT philosophy, but perhaps there is some workaround I can use…?
many thanks in advance
@BLUEFROG Jim just to make sure I understand correctly: you suggest to add the “last read” page to favorites / read later, as a way to bookmark a place in a pdf? Not entirely sure from the screenshots…
Thanks !
DEVONthink remembers the last viewed page in PDF documents but sure you could add a page to the table of contents as an impromptu bookmark.
I haven’t noticed that. I literally just opened a bunch of PDF documents, scrolled some pages, closed the document and re-opened — each document was opened at the beginning (and not the position at which I have closed them)
What OS and version of DEVONthink?
The only discrepancy I see is the page displays from the top, so if you were scrolled to the bottom, subsequent viewing of the document would initially show the top of the page.
macos 26.1
DEVONthink: 4.1.1
I mean, if DEVONthink would store the last read position, I would not have to ask how to “bookmark” a page…
