I do more of the planning and organizing on the mac, but the links work great on ios for taking the next action while away from the Mac. The OmniFocus project also has a link to DT so when I act on the next action, my reference material in DT is a click away. That DT group will also store screenshots, emails, and anything else related to the project. That DT group will have a markdown journal to track my progress on that project including a link to the OmniFocus project to track next actions. So my main category could be Work Subject Matter Expert (SME) and the DT group I have for a project might be a review of security controls in Application A.

That way the notes are in the main category notebook, but the PDF page(s) are in DTTG to be associated to the particular project. After the meeting I finish off the notes and then export that as a PDF to DTTG. I use less notebooks (on per main category) and I add a page for a new meeting. In version 5 of GoodNotes, I change my workflow slightly. I use this for action items and can send that straight to OmniFocus. The other nice thing with GoodNotes is that you can use the lasso tool to select some handwritten text to convert to text via the OCR and then use the Share extension. This allows my handwritten notes to show up as search results along side emails and other documents I have filed in DT.
#Goodnotes 5 auto backup pro#
I use the large iPad Pro with the pencil and the auto backups in PDF are searchable with my handwriting (printing) interpreted very accurately. What I like about GoodNotes is I picked it because I wanted my note taking to be handwritten.
#Goodnotes 5 auto backup mac#
In DT on the Mac I would index the folder which then makes it available in DTTG. I configured the backup format to be PDFs and the categories in Goodnotes became subfolders. I would configure the auto backup to a cloud storage such as Box. In version 4 they have an auto backup feature that has not been implemented yet in version 5. If you manage to work this out to your satisfaction, please share the details with the rest of us! If it becomes necessary, I can export notes as either PDFs or RTFs, depending on the contents. I use Apple Notes for all other note-taking, because most of it does not end up in DTTG. But, I still exclusively create and edit the project notes in Agenda, exporting to DTTG as Markdown only after the project is closed. For you, the current lack of Apple Pencil support might be a deal-breaker. Some advantages for me are that it has one more level of organization than Apple Notes, and it easily exports notes in Markdown format, which is reasonably well supported in DTTG. I am currently experimenting with using Agenda as my project note-taker. You might want to consider leaving your rich text documents in their native form/app until you export them as PDFs or RTFs to DTTG for archiving along with related materials. However, editing the documents once they are in DTTG is more complicated and may be impractical for some users. It is not difficult to store a copy of these types of documents in DTTG as PDFs and RTFs. It sounds like you prefer note-taking apps that enable rich text, handwriting, and drawing. In my exploration, the apps which integrate most easily with DTTG are the plain-text and Markdown editors. Most differ just enough in features and function to satisfy some users and not others. If you search these forums, you will find numerous discussions of note-taking strategies with DTTG that may help you.Īs korm points out, there are many choices for note-taking apps.
