DEVONthink has been updated quite a few times since I wrote the second edition of this book (back when version 2.3.3 was current). Even though the software is still “DEVONthink 2” (that is, version 2.x), the latest version as I write this text—version 2.9.6—includes hundreds of (mostly minor) changes and bug fixes compared to what I described earlier, as well as some significant new features. In addition, since the second edition appeared, Apple released several major upgrades to the Mac operating system, each of which had its own long list of changes.
Accordingly, I’ve updated this book in many ways, both large and small.
Among the most significant changes are the following:
