PDFs in Logseq: The Best Way to Take Notes from PDFs

Video Description

I've started using Logseq for taking notes from PDFs - it was a feature I didn't know I needed, and now I can't stop using it. I have a strong feeling this feature will help students taking notes, as well as researchers and others in academia taking notes on research papers. 📚 LOGSEQ MASTERY COURSE 👉🏼 https://www.logseqmastery.com/ ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Start building a digital Second Brain with Logseq.
