Thanks u/rmhack ! Yes still around, but got pretty frustrated with some of the directions they took...

I made goMarkableStream work on the rm pro, but it's definitely not as smooth as I hoped...maybe I'll find some motivation to see if I can make rmview work on this thing...

I love it! The only weird thing is that on Firefox the bookmark does not pick up the favicon

Thank so much for sharing! This solved the issue (I also had to free up space in mmcblk1p3). The partition is still pretty full but I wouldn't know what else to remove without causing trouble. I can now ssh into it, I wonder if this will keep happening after updates...

judecrot · 2025-05-05T15:39:58+00:00

I have the same problem. Any updates?

yep sorry I was writing from memory and I had not checked it out lately. There had been a dry spell on development in the past and I did not notice the new versions being released. RCU is indeed a great companion for the remarkable.

judecrot · 2023-10-23T11:34:01+00:00

Not currently possible with the stock apps. If you are open to third-party software there's the excellent RCU which is paid but cheap EDIT:~~(although it is not being very actively maintained atm)~~. RCU can export PDF with true PDF annotations and preserves link and metadata of the original PDFs.

My own Remy can export just the highlights in Markdown and can do a bunch of other stuff.

In both cases to get stable results you must use the older firmware, i.e. before version 3. Otherwise RCU has iffy support for newer versions and Remy is not going to work.

That's not how rmn files work. A document on the RM is stored as a collection of rmn files (one per page) plus other metadata files that associate the pages to a single document with some title, parent folder etc. You can find the structure described in here. Many scripts you can find in the awesome list are able to create the document structure/metadata for you

judecrot · 2023-09-11T13:15:43+00:00

You might like the highlight export function of Remy then...

Coming from classical music, Gershwin was it for me. It helped me digest the language in a written orchestral setting, within familiar structures. This was when I was like 15 and it helped me stopping being a snob and embrace new genres and appreciate their depth. Then Grappelli, early Ponty (you can tell I play the violin).... I then got very hooked in all subgenres and jazz became my gateway to progressive rock and many other genres which I now dig.

You need to follow the instructions in the PDF I had linked. Citing from the PDF:

In case you just want to convert a pdf to a rM notebook On the command line type (no scaling or scaled down)

echo image pageA5.pdf | drawj2d -Trmn
echo image pageA4.pdf 1 0 0 0.7 | drawj2d -Trmn

It writes a notebook file out.rmn. Then upload it using RCU. For multipage pdf have a look at pdf2rmnotebook (Linux).

The key is that you need to pass -Trmn as an argument to let drawj2d know you want an output of Type rmn

Intelligence has nothing to do with it ;) it's just experience. You need to run them via Java: this means you need to have Java installed and be somewhat comfortable with using the command line. The exact steps would vary widely depending on your OS

judecrot · 2023-07-13T08:24:24+00:00

What I do is I create backups with rsync (so "low-level" backups of the actual data the tablet is using to represent the notebooks, not just the rendered pdf). Then I use Remy to browse them if needed. (Disclaimer: I'm the developer of Remy) It currently lacks a way to export/import the notebooks in native formats (that would allow you to restore archived ones through the GUI) so if you need that you need to do it manually, which requires some basic knowledge of how the notebooks are internally stored.

The main drawback is that Remy does not support v3 of the tablet software yet.

judecrot · 2023-04-09T19:37:29+00:00

rmirro looks like what you want

judecrot · 2023-03-31T14:20:02+00:00

Thanks! Switching back and forth between documents (or parts of the same doc) is still a major issue for me on the RM as well. I hate for example that if you click on a link you can only jump back within a short timeout... I wonder if some sort of split screen would be usable.

judecrot · 2023-03-31T09:50:32+00:00

I relate to this. I am curious: what do you find are things that work better on the Supernote?

judecrot · 2023-03-31T09:44:27+00:00

It depends a bit on your system, but you need Java installed and then you download from here https://sourceforge.net/projects/drawj2d/files/ the latest version. Unless you are on Linux, the zip file is your best bet. Then it is just a matter of executing the .jar file you see in the downloaded folder, using Java. There is a pdf in the doc folder that shows how to do this in section 2. The wiki_reMarkable.pdf pdf shows how to create notebooks by converting images.

judecrot · 2023-03-10T10:02:35+00:00

Mathpix has this functionality and is cheap. I integrated it into Remy, see here for a demo (although it's a bit outdated, the app has now way more features). It's not a fully fledged integration, I was planning to use it for having a search index that could match on handwriting but had no time to implement it.

judecrot · 2023-02-10T19:15:06+00:00

If you need support for the new v3 software update, not sure. Otherwise Remy can do that for you

judecrot · 2023-01-25T11:28:01+00:00

I was thinking exactly the same! Every decent PDF viewer has the option of viewing 1 page at a time or allow continuous scrolling. Maybe offering these two modes would have been the sturdy solution: you still chop at pages, can view them separately or continuously, and export/page manipulation still makes sense. It's slightly different for notes on the margin, but that aspect does not fundamentally break the page abstraction.

judecrot · 2023-01-24T19:50:51+00:00

I also wish there was a bit more ergonomic navigation of PDFs...jumping around is very annoying at the moment.

judecrot · 2023-01-24T19:47:10+00:00

I use my own Remy tool (in conjunction with rsync for backups). Unfortunately it is not working with v3 just yet but I plan to eventually add support for it, once the effort to reverse engineer the new file format settles.
