Hi,

I just discovered org-ref recently and would like to manage my entire 
pdf library with it. Basically, my set-up is a folder containing many 
scientific papers in pdf, and a bibtex file containing most of the 
entries related to these pdfs.

My bibtex file is well linked to org-ref and I have already moved 
several pdfs into the bibtex-pdfs/ folder so that they can be opened 
easily using their bibtex entry. However, I found this to be a lot of 
work for moving/linking only a few pdfs. I'm wondering if there is a way 
to automate that.

When I'm moving one of my pdfs onto the emacs window with the 
bibliography opened, it tries to download the pdf from the web using the 
doi (if found). However, is there a way to bypass the download (because 
I already have the file) and to directly move/rename the pdf to the 
bibtex-pdfs/ folder while validating my bibtex entry (or creating a new 
one, does not matter) ?

Thanks for helping,
Martin
