#How to get evernote web clipper pdf#

And, although I’m not a Word user I think it will allow you to import or open a pdf file and then save it as a doc file. The only problem I see so far with this, is that CutePDF wants to call (everything)”printed” this way (as) Evernote.pdf, so you have to change the file name to avoid writing over the previous file. To get a text note out just open up the note and print it, to a pdf printer like Cute PDF. I just ready your post about getting a note in Evernote out of the program and into another format on your hard drive.

In that post I explained how to save an Evernote web clipping as an image file.

Capture the name of the page, and use that to name the Evernote note and the PDF.Recently I posted on How to Solve a Pesky Evernote Web Clipper Problem.

I’d prefer to trigger the web hook directly from BetterTouchTool - but couldn’t figure out how to do it.

The current trigger mechanism is pretty inelegant in the way it uses Alfred as a ‘middleman’ to trigger the web hook.

It requires a separate Alfred workflow and separate Zapier zap for each destination notebook which you want to make available to the TouchBar trigger.

This solution won’t work with any pages which require a login.

Title: select Step 1, Catch Hook, Querystring Note from the dropdownĬontent: Step 1, Catch Hook, Querystring NoteĪttachment: select: Step 3 > Upload File > Direct Media Link Notebook: select the relevant notebook from the dropdown

The final stage is to create a new Evernote note and upload the PDF from Dropbox to Evernote.

Specify File Name: Select ‘Step 1 Querystring Keywords’ The Zapier template should be:įile: Select “Step 2, Exists but not shown’ from the dropdown

The third stage of the zap is to upload the resulting PDF to dropbox.

The custom request template should be as follows:ĭata: This will use PhantomJS to capture the page as a PDF. The second stage of the Zap is a “Custom Request” for “Webhooks by Zapier”. In the Zapier zap, the webhook trigger should be configured as “Catch Hook”, with “Silent Mode” left unticked, and the “Pick off a child key” field left empty Your zap should look something like this its fully set up The trigger has now activated the Zapier webhook. The AppleScript activates an Alfred Workflow which triggers a Zapier web hook

The automated page capture and upload to Evernote My approach requires BetterTouchTool (for the Touchbar integration) and Alfred, but could be implemented as a keyboard shortcut or Alfred command, without using BetterTouchToolĢ. My approach could be entirely customised or replaced with a keyboard shortcut in order to broaden compatibility to Macs without touchbars. There are really two parts to this solutionġ. I want to explain my solution here, and throw it open to improvements from the community: I’m sure it could be improved! There’s no need to wait for clipping or syncing: the browser tab can be closed immediately.

So I’ve strung together an alternative solution which instantly clips the full contents of the current browser tab as a long single-page PDF and automatically saves it to the relevant Evernote notebook in the background. Could be triggered faster with less interaction / fewer mouse clicks than the webclipper eliminate the wait for the webclipper to capture, upload and sync the pageī. I frequently use the Evernote webclipper on my Mac but wanted something which:Ī.
