... just to be sure:
I hope this will also solve the fact that
embedded hyperlinks
in PDFs do not work...?!– or should this be a separate 'ticket'? – @ Steffen Bleher / michael_v_h

+1, this is huge for an Object based tool to become really useful!

Another vote for OCR on PDFs and images. Evernote, OneNote, and Bear 2 can do this. Craft cannot. This would be the catalyst for me to move from Craft to Capacities.
Can you talk about a timeline yet?

I just wanted to add my vote for searching within images. I take a lot of screenshots and sometimes need to search for something that was shown or mentioned within an image. I can do this within Evernote and OneNote and it has saved me many times. It's one of the only things (along with content tables) that are preventing me from fully committing to Capacities.

Steffen Bleher - Can you share any sort of timeline on this yet? Thanks in advance!

Jason Hernandez: Reworking our media system is our big project this summer. Cannot give a specific timeline, but it's one of the next items on our roadmap.

michael_v_h so excited!

Yes, we have plans for this. We are currently working on a first version of full-text search for entities in Capacities. We will expand this over time to include the content of media such as PDFs. Thematically, this will belong to Milestone 6 – Embracing media and annotations. 🖼️📺💬 Which will also include annotations for PDF and a better PDF reader (with zooming, TOC, selectable text etc.).

michael_v_h: would be great, if Capacities could get rid of this awkward standard PDF-reader 'design', and make it more minimal, flat & organic.
... and just to get the perspective: which Milestone number are we (you) at? I´d love to see Milestone 6 on the horizon :-D
Keep on with the wonder-wonderful work!

michael_v_h: That is really great to hear! Is it possible to see the outline of the milestones somewhere?

michael_v_h: this would be a key feature for me to move here. I was using Evernote longtime, but feel not comfortable anymore. I need the search of pdfs badly. How are things doing on this new feature?
