If you care at all about keeping documents stored in a reasonable hierarchy inside ~/Documents, you're out of luck. My workflow: * Download a PDF. * Open Files and copy the PDF from ~/Downloads into ~/Documents or a subfolder of ~/Documents. I'm not going to skip this step! * Open GNOME Documents and give that PDF a reasonable category, because everything is completely disorganized in GNOME Documents otherwise. I am willing to skip this step, by not using GNOME Documents at all. Even when I do resolve to use GNOME Documents, I give up very quickly as I'm not up for reorganizing all my documents into reasonable categories when they are already organized nicely on disk. This is a shame, since it really is a nice document viewer. It's also basically useless if you want to store some PDFs outside of ~/Documents. Michael
