I am new to DT, so hopefully this is not a stupid question, but have looked at the documentation and searched but not found an answer yet
I am contemplating moving from Evernote (EN) to DT. One of the main uses for EN is the ability to file important documents that I need a record of but are not accessed frequently (tax returns, etc). In EN I do the following:
- scan with scansnap 550 - save to a folder as searchable PDF
- use Hazel to read the file and then rename it based on the contents and today’s date
- Then there is a little script I use to move it to the correct notebook in EN
tell application “Evernote”
create note from file theFile notebook {“notebook-name”}
end tell - Hazel then moves the original file onto a NAS drive (yes, I end up with 2 copies but the data is important enough to warrant this).
So, I then end up with a searchable PDF, already renamed and filed in the correct place in EN.
What is important here is that the process is fully automated - I just have to put the doc in the scanner and the mac does the rest. I DON’T want to have to rename files myself or choose where they should be ‘filed’.
Can I achieve the same in DT?
