I use DTPO as my project/book source depository- all the primary and secondary sources, in Spanish and English. But then: have fun integrating it with DT.Įchoing what others have posted here, I use a combination of DTPO, a reference manager (has been bookends, might be Zotero in the future), and scrivener.

When I’m writing in Scrivener, I clearly miss DT’s AI feature.

When I’m writing in DT, I miss Scrivener’s features to organize, combine, split, mark etc. I’m somewhat torn between DT and Scrivener for drafting and I haven’t yet made up my mind about the best point of transferring notes to Scrivener. I’m still not committed to a certain workflow on the Mac plattform with regard to DT, Scrivener and a word processor.This procedure worked quite well for me on the Windows platform a couple of years ago when I used a software to draft papers that had no footnote capabilities either. Best you could do in DT is to write your text and paragraphs and use pseudo-tags for footnotes Later in Word, you could convert these FN- or similar “tags” into real footnotes via AppleScript. (The book on the DT way is still in the making? ) Rent a subdomain at pbworks or so and let’s see what will emerge… I think we’re at a point now, where information about workflows is too widely dispersed in different fora and threads. RTFM and discussion forums - it’ll take a few I think a wiki would help to collaboratively design the best usage scenarios and workflows with DT involved. Your posting isn’t what I would call a follow-up. Academic software lack tight and seamless integration.
