Images & attachments

You can embed images and attach files directly in a note. Attachments are stored separately from the note text, so your notes stay fast no matter what you attach.

Paste an image, or choose the image button in the toolbar. mashnote preserves the image, including PNG transparency.

Choose the attachment button and pick a file (PDF, document, archive — anything). The file becomes an attachment on the note.

  • Attachments are stored in object storage (not inside the note text), and the note keeps a lightweight reference.
  • Thumbnails are generated for images, so the note list doesn’t download full-resolution files.
  • Attachments are cached locally for offline access.

Pasting content with images uploads the referenced images automatically, so the note stays self-contained. On Safari, pasted web images fall back to a file picker.

See Export your data for how attachments are included in exports.
