  • I’m away from a terminal rn, but there’s an “Upload files” button on the Dashboard if memory serves, which presumably lets you send files thru the web interface. I haven’t used it yet.

    Edit: Forgot to say, my original document archive, the Consume folder, and the Media folder all live on the same NAS share, which is mounted on my main PC. So to import all those documents I’m just literally cutting and pasting files from within my file manager. I’m only using the web interface to manage what’s been consumed.

    I had the same reservations, but the way it seems to work out of the box is, nothing is deleted. Anything it can consume will get turned into a pdf, OCRd, and indexed. Then the new PDF and the original file get moved to the media folder you specify. Original is always retained and can be downloaded to your client machine at any time alongside the new PDF.

    I have mine set to apply an inbox tag to anything newly consumed. I also saved a custom view which filters in any document with that tag. I’m using that View as my work queue so to speak. The inbox tag is removed after I give the file a once-over. Makes it easy to see which documents still need my attention.
