Notebooks overview

Notebooks is the only notebook you ever need. It allows you to create as many books as you need to write, store and structure your details of life, and it will quickly become the one and only repository for all journals, ideas, notes, drafts and diaries but also for your projects, task lists, documents, files and everything else you want to keep close at hand.

Notebooks stores and displays almost any type of document: plain text and formatted text, PDF, web pages, MS Office or iWork documents, photos, videos, music and much more. Everything you would usually print out and file can now go directly into Notebooks, without adding bulk. Notebooks also keeps your task lists and allows you to tick off your to-dos as you complete them. Divide your projects into nested sub projects, which makes them easier to handle, and cross-reference into your reference library, which, of course, is in Notebooks, too. So whether you need to write something down or look something up, Notebooks is the place to go.

Trying out. When I drag rich text from DevonThink to the middle column, it shows there as PDF. The right hand column shows the whole text, but it is not editable. It feels like an image of the text. Is it because it's a trial version ?

I use NoteBooks for compiling and keeping research notes organised. I do a lot of academic writing so it's extremely useful. It's got all the basic essentials without being bloatware and a nice big writing space that's not taken up with large menus. Overall, a great 'out-of-the-box- and get going app.

This application is fantastic for those who are trying to find a low-cost way to go paperless, manage files and for users who need better text editing in Mac.

Please add encrypted synchronisation to dropbox. You wouldn't let the dropbox guys read your diary. Neither do I want the dropbox staff read my notes! Im syncing to my own Nextcloud for now. It's not as convenient, as you have to sync manually every time you add new notes or make a change. Other than that this application really has it all! It's way more than just note taking. You can add to do lists with due dates, edit PDFs, make hand drawings, organise many different filetypes, add images and other filestypes to documents. Still the layout of the app is very intuitive and simple. Fantastic
