I don’t believe the small number of PDF documents you manually add to the SQLiite database will come anywhere near it’s limits.
I assume because that’s going in the opposite direction to the philosophy Manager appears to be taking. All changes I have seen in Manager try to hide internal complexity from the end user. Using SQLite enables all of a Managers business records to simply be one file. All internal requirements are managed by the software.
More recently most of the program level settings have also been moved to the single business file and the business file has been given human readable names.
So no, I don’t think using symbolic links would be a step forward. Going in the opposite direction has some merit, removing links to external images and instead storing the images in Manager’s data file. Possibly by adding a custom field type image for inventory items.
Agree
