Okay, I am stumped and trying to figure this out. I am sure there is a simpler solution, but probably because my AC is broken this weekend and it’s hot, my mind is just not thinking well.
Today, I wrote up some stuff in Byword and did some formatting it to it.
I copy and paste to Evernote and lose some formatting.
I copy and paste to DevonThink and lose some formatting.
Other suggestions that I am not looking into? I want something where ever I export to it goes, it retains all formatting and allows me to edit in case I need to, when I am away from my Mac.
Eventually, at the end of the day, anything written will most likely be archived into Evernote or DTPO. (but not in PDF)
Example, usually all bold/italics, and any numbered lists get lost. If they get retained at times in Evernote, it’s not a list format, but a long run-on sentence with numbers.
I’m late to the party on this thread, but… Are you copying/pasting the text or the file? Mac or iOS?
I have a suspicion you are pasting the text and there is something flaky going on with pasting it into another app. Perhaps a limitation of the built in editors in Evernote or Devonthink. If that’s the case, I’d try to drag or paste the file into either of those. I don’t recall how Evernote works, but Devonthink will let you open items in external apps, so even if you’ve found a limitation of the editor you can still get at your file and edit it in the original app.
