there are a plethora of awesome plugins to extend Zotero's functionality and improve the features offered by the reference manager.

For the [Zotfile Workflow](https://forum.obsidian.md/t/zotero-best-practices/164/57):
> Splitting annotations and Highlights into different notes
> There are a few settings worth looking into, depending on your workflow:
> .
> By default, the `extensions.zotfile.pdfExtraction.colorNotes` setting is turned off, which means all the highlights and annotations will be extracted to a single note.
> You can change the format of the title with `extensions.zotfile.pdfExtraction.formatNoteTitle`
> .
> Setting `extensions.zotfile.pdfExtraction.colorAnnotations` to true, will add the color as a background in the annotations, and you can use `%(color_category)` to add labels in `extensions.zotfile.pdfExtraction.formatAnnotationHighlight` according to the colors in `extensions.zotfile.pdfExtraction.colorCategories`
