Question re Dropbox integration (NoteAir 2)

Hi,

I got my Note Air2 Plus last week and I'm getting familiar with the system and really like it so far.

My question is about the latest Dropbox (or probably more generally cloud service integration):

I understand that it allows me to pick (in my case) PDFs directly from my Dropbox account and it will actually sync all my notes/scribbles back-and-forth, which is great.

The question is, where are the PDFs actually stored on the Boox? Once I select a file in Dropbox, the system does a "download" but the PDF does not appear in the Download folder or in any other part of the "Storage" tab. But it seems clear that there is a local copy of the PDF on the Boox because even if I go offline, the PDF is still available for reading and marking.

The only way I have found to actually "find" the PDF on the Boox is to look under Library/Recent Reading but if I delete the history, I have to go back into Dropbox and in my case, these files are often hidden 5-6 levels deep into my Dropbox.

Hopefully someone can shed some light on this and help me getting better access to the Dropbox files!

Thanks!

Hmm, I don't know.
There's a finite amount of places that it could go.
Did you look under /sdcard/Android/Onyx...

They are stored in an invisible folder called .ksync. This sync only syncs your Notes

I ended up dropping $10 on AutoSync and that syncs everything! Plus, it makes finding things really simply.
