![]() I created a RTF template in DT which I always use to to write in RTF. I think that it is a question of workflow. What do you mean when you say "using NisusWriterPro as an external editor *for* DevonThink"? Do you mean using it exclusively instead of creating a plain text, a new rich text and a new formatted note in DEVONthink itself? Just in case I am hospitalzed with covid, come out of a coma in 3 months, forget that I created the rule, and start searching for the reason why RTF files are blocked. I will make a minor modification, which is to add one action to your rule: to display a notification stating that the doc can only be opened in NisusWriterPro based on a custom smart rule. Wow ! an extremely intelligent solution which I will implement. I would guess that you smart rule is perhaps still running (a duplicate?)Ĭreate a Smart Rule in DEVONthink which marks the file as "locked" so that it will be always automatically opened and edited in Nisus. Most forum members use only DT to edit files. ![]() There must be something in your settings. rtf files from being tampered with in DEVONthink Maybe the DEVONthink team has added this recently as a new feature to prevent. rtf files are now all Read-only, so that they can't be edited in DEVONthink. Also thank you for taking the time to test. ![]() Thank you very much for a very intelligent and imaginative reply. One forum member expressed reservations namely that he as experienced loss of content and style namely TOC, indexing, stylesheet, floating graphics, … because “NisusWriterPro does not support the Mac OS X’s text engine”ġ- does NisusWriterPro not support the Mac OS X’s text engine or is it the MacOsx engine does not support TOC, indexing, stylesheet, floating graphics ?Ģ- can I predict in advance which types of formats (table of content? etc) I should avoid to remain compatible ?ģ- is it simply a problem that the DevonThink's Document Preview does not show the TOC, indexing, stylesheet, floating graphics, but I will see them when I open the document ?Ĥ- Is the following approach perhaps a solution: create a DevonThink document template with NisusWriterPro (which I did) and after it has been created, make it a habit of never making any edits except with NisusWriterPro to avoid losing any style or content ? Would that insure me that TOC, indexing, stylesheet, floating graphics are preserved ? Hello, I am a big fan of NisusWriterPro and have been promoting it on the DevonThink Pro forum as the best RTFD editor as compared to the native RTFD editor and alternatives like Mellel, Bean, Word, Pages, etcĭevonThink is rather unique in that users can edit internal rtfd documents in the external editor of their choice, which I think is very intelligent.
