For years, whenever I use the Print dialogue and choose “Save PDF to DevonThink Pro” the file would be added to my inbox with the “.pdf” file extension in the name…
But suddenly, this stopped—it still saves it as a .pdf file, but the extension no longer shows in the file name.
Preferences - Import - Titles is set to “Filename with extension” as it always has been.
I reinstalled DEVONthink 2. The preference there is DEVONthink > Preferences > Import > Titles > Filename with extension. I tested that by printing a PDF from Safari and saving to the DEVONthink 2 Inbox. The Filename with / without extension preferences work as expected.
Unfortunately, as I wrote in the original post, the “Filename with extension” radio button is selected—I’ve never changed that (or any related setting), which is why I’m so baffled it suddenly started behaving differently…
I confirmed it’s an issue I’m seeing here as well. However, it’s merely a cosmetic issue and therefore I can’t say whether it will be addressed for the 2.x line any time soon. Thanks for your patience and understanding.
I have used DEVONthink 3 exclusively after uninstalling DEVONthink 2 over six months ago. I use DEVONthink 3 ten or more hours per day, across normally 6 open databases, and continual sync to DEVONthink to Go on 2 iOS devices.
I make my living using this arrangement.
I have no concerns. No “instability”. No crashes. No nothing to tell me I made the wrong decision.
Not committing to DEVONthink 3 is, in my personal opinion, foregoing lots of benefit for no reason.
