 Topic: consensus recommendation for Mac pdf/text tagging/filing software

John SJ Anderson <gene...@gmail.com> Nov 05 04:13PM -0400 ^

 
Hey --
 
What's the current consensus opinion on the best non-cloud-based
PDF/text snippet management software for Macs? Basically I want
Evernote but without the cloud storage/sync layer -- just local
storage. Doesn't need to do the OCR thing; does need to support
tagging of documents.
 
I'm scanning meeting notes and various other things for $WORK with a
ScanSnap and I'd like to be able to throw them in a big tagged pile
and pull things back out later -- but due to the nature of what $WORK
entails, I'm a bit leary about storing them with Evernote (more for
perceptual issues than any feeling there's actual risk with doing that
-- i.e., it's not worthwhile making a technical argument about how
safe Evernote is, as that's not the actual issue).
 
Thanks for any pointers.
 
chrs,
john.

What's about Yojimbo. It's also a little bit snappier than Evernote.
 
Yours,

I concur with DevonThink.  Its the Cadillac when it comes to this kind of software and it fits your description pretty much to a tee.  Its designed to work directly with the Snap Scan, as well.

Good luck,
