Bookends 13.0
Sonny Software has issued Bookends 13.0, a major upgrade for the reference management tool that updates its database engine and resolves a longstanding problem with improper rendering of large PDFs. The release adds support for importing references and PDFs with annotations from Papers 3, adds PDF quick links that enable you to jump back and forth between references and their PDFs, adds support for scanning Pages documents stored in iCloud, improves the speed of transferring PDFs from Bookends for iOS over Wi-Fi, saves fresh PDF before opening the PDF in another application, and now correctly remembers PDF scroll positions. The app is now 64-bit and requires OS X 10.9 Mavericks or later. A free trial that’s fully functional for up to 50 references is available. If you purchased a Bookends license more than 2 years ago (Bookends licenses provide 2 years of free updates), you can upgrade to version 13 for $39.99. ($59.99 new with a 25 percent discount for TidBITS members, $39.99 upgrade, 44.3 MB, release notes, 10.9+)
The Tidbits member discount code does not work... :(
Sorry! I'll check into it with them.
Turns out that Sonny Software had just brought up a complete new ordering system. They've now created a new coupon code and it's available on the Member Benefits page at http://tidbits.com/your_benefits.html (requires a TidBITS member login).
Thanks for looking into this, Adam; just to make sure: this does not apply to upgrades? (I tried the new code on the upgrade page, and it does not give a discount...)
No, it's only new copies, sorry!
