I just installed Samba on my Linux box and now use the iLiad-integrated method for exchanging documents over WiFi with my Linux box.
So my "workflow" looks like this:
- I mount the linux Samba share on my Laptop and put my documents in there (I even added a shortcut to my printer-panel, so I can directly "print-to-my-linux-box", this works quite well on my Mac-Laptop)
- Whenever I'm ready, I turn on my iLiad and press the iDS button to sync with my linux server. All new documents get transfered to my iLiad. All documents in my iliad-outbox get synced to my Linux box
I also created a small script, which is running on my Linux-box to automatically merge the scribbles I did on my PDF and produce annotated PDFs (thanks to iLiadScribbleMerger)
The script for doing this "scribble merging" is attached. This file is just added to the cron-job to execute every 1 minute...
Code:
>crontab -l
