(Though there's one notebook that I share a lot and that has tables and some layout but is otherwise pretty basic too.) I'm lucky (I guess) in that I don't care what my source stuff looks like. Those notes get shared, or the attachments emailed, as necessary. The source documentation stays in my notes, and the public version is in a document file attached to a note so it can be opened anywhere I have software to edit it. Where I need to put things together in a 'tidy' manner I use Word, or -less frequently- Publisher for posters or leaflets. I have nearly 44,000 notes - a lot of which are scrappy random bits of drawing or text associated with a project, plus related web clips, images and emails and occasional scanned documents. I have so much data in Evernote that I cannot change w ithout taking a major hit to productivity Ulysses is outstanding for long-form writing, but for note-taking their new subscription model is expensive relative to other options, and the markdown is intrusive, although that's fixable with some theme "tweaking".ĭropbox Paper wins for me so far for everyday notes, with Evernote for web pages, scanned stuff, photos, and everything but the kitchen sink that I need to be taggable and searchable. The long-form writing app Scrivener is really powerful, cross platform, and very reasonably priced, but overly complex, and downright ugly. OneNote I find nice looking with good formatting options, but unwieldy and clunky with poor tagging options. Not the end of the world, I can use it on my iPad Pro if off the grid. No tags but I make my own using #hashtagsĭropbox's target audience seems to be business teams, so they're not motivated to fix the offline app problem. It's handling of images and other attachments in notes is outstanding. Next is the beautiful Bear Notes, but it's Apple ecosystem only, and displays distracting heading markdown.ĭropbox Paper is great, but although it has excellent mobile apps, it has no off-line access on the Desktop. My favourite would be Typora if there was an iOS app but it's just Windows or MacOS. There are many options, but all have negatives: restricted platforms, relatively expensive subscriptions, no hidden markdown, or just plain ugly. Perhaps there are some 3rd party apps (Other than the aforementioned Marxico) with decent formatting capabilities that can access Evernote account? No need to say Evernote should have introduced styles long ago, sadly it didn’t happen and I have no hope to see that functionality in the nearest future. Therefore I’m looking for a way to edit text notes more conveniently.I’d like to mention that I’ve tried solutions involving ahk scripts to automate formatting, unfortunately, none of them worked properly. The main reason why I prefer Evernote over the other note-taking apps is the Web Clipper extension which IMO constitutes the best tool for collecting information from the Web.However, lack of styles that can be applied with a keyboard shortcut like in MS Word, makes writing anything of considerable length or more sophisticated structure a nightmare. I’ ve tried using Marxico but I was sorely disappointed with its inability to edit notes created in Evernote app. Use the WWU SensusAccess form to convert documents into accessible formats like tagged PDF, Word Document, EPUB, and more.I was recently wondering whether there is a way to do something about Evernote's poor formatting capabilities.
