[QUOTE="davemchine, post: 1430519, member: 263537"] What I decided to do for now is a combination of all the advice offered here. Almost all of the recipe's that I have are from food websites so I went to each and printed to pdf. I saved the documents to a dropbox folder called "recipe's" so they are available on all of my computers and ios devices. When saving from a website it does preserve the "text" from the document. I also have some recipe's that are not from magazines and those I typed in textedit and added an image from google images. I then saved to the same folder as both a simple text file and as a pdf. That way I can edit in the future if needed. Last, in preparation for apple's upcoming flat file system I am attempting to forgo folders as much as possible. So I didn't create a folder for each kind of recipe. I named things "Asian-Pad Phrik King" or "Dessert-Candied Pecans" etc. So the recipe's still appear in something of an organized order and are all in a single folder. I have 57 recipe's so far. The google documents solution would probably work equally well. I used dropbox because I already had it and it seems well supported from within apps on ios. The last part of the puzzle is now how to print it all as a cookbook and keep it in the kitchen. Three ring binder or something else? [/QUOTE]
