Hello Paprika Folks,
I need some expert assistance. I copied my recipes that I have collected over
the years from my Win 7 PC machine onto a USB thumb drive. I placed the thumb
drive into an USB port on my Air, opened Paprika and attemted to import the
first recipe file from the drive. I receiv
Hello,
firstly let me say I have only had Paprica for a short time and still getting
used to it.
I expect if you had saved the files as .txt. Then you might be able to import
them.

Hello,
Thanks for the tip. I will now convert a file to tXT and see if it will import
to Paprika. I will also try RTF to see if that is acceptable with Paprika.
Best,
Eileen

Hello,
I'm back again. I have taken one of my recipes and have saved it as a DOC, RTF,
and ODT file separately and have attempted to import each of these file formats
into Paprika only to have the same error message that the import had failed.
So, I ask, What am I doing wrong not to be able to
there is a list of supported file types that Paprika will import in the user
manual. I just did a search for paprika user manual.
I still say for the money MacGourmet is much more flexible and much easier to
import recipes into.

I don't believe any of those file types are supported. looks like a .YML file
is the closest thing you can use.

Hi Jim,
Thanks for looking this up. I have iText Express and TextEdit on my Air. I
don't think I saw a .YML file type in either one of them. I guess the only
solution is to copy/paste the info into Paprika. Oh well!!! Not a happy camper,
but will like with it.
thanks again.
Cheers,

Hi Eileen and Others,
Paprika uses the file extension type to recognize the importing format. You
need to use text files and name them with a ".yml" extension for YAML format
before you import. Keywords like "name" and "servings" are followed by a colon
and a space, then the text argument. F
Hi Jim,
I've had MacGourmet (in the Deluxe Version) for some time, and I agree that
it's a great program, and was the "gold standard" for Mac recipe management
programs at the time I bought it. There are a lot of things I like about it,
including the smart list features. If we were only talki
I just added gourmet to my wishlist. How much is mac gourmet and which version
should i look into if i am considering it?
Is there a separate version for the ipad?

It does require an update to version 4 but it is half price now and the regular
version is normally 24.95. The deluxe version offers menu planning and more
which I don't really need. I just think that recipe entry is so much easier
with mac gourmet. I guess they are both good but for me the
Hi,
Below is the extract from the user manual.
YAML is a simple, plain text file with sections delimited by key-value pairs.
To indicate a block of text, use an initial pipe character, as shown in

Mac Gourmet is 24.95 for the regular version and twice that for the deluxe
version. The deluxe version has a menu planner and a meal planner and a
cookbook maker. Not sure that it is all necessary. The regular version does
everything else I believe.
I really like its ease of use but paprika l
Hello,
I have read through this post and it brings me to ask a couple of questions:
1. If I am using iTextExpress to set the recipe up to be accepted by Paprika as
described below, do I save the doc in the .YML file type. That file type is not
in the list in iText Express.
2. If I need to crea
The import must be saved as a plain text file. YAML is just a text passing
standard. By providing the fields and indentations required by the app, you
will be able to successfully import recipes.

Hi There,
Okay. I am somewhat under the weather with a mild cold, so my brain may not be
processing it all today. If I have a recipe in a DOCX file format and open it
on my Mac with iText Express and attempt to save it, there is no .TXT extension
to save it as a plain text file. So, how can I
Hi Eileen,
I think you may have missed my earlier post giving directions on how to import
in answer to your question. I'll paste it into a second post. But first, to
answer your current question, I saved the recipes that I want to import into
Paprika as .TXT files, and generally just keep thes
