I know this question has been asked before and I know about org-roam, I am just not sure if org-roam is the right solution for me. Right now, I use one big org file to take notes which I export to pdf. This works nicely, but it would be nice to also have access to the concepts in the larger org file at a granular level (ie. bite-sized notes which reference one another and are organized based on their subject matter). I would also like to tag information that is not in org format, if possible. I was thinking that org-roam & org-transclusion could be used to make main subject files, while org-roam could be used to make a link to an embedded pdf that comes from the concept I am referencing, when I don’t need to explicitly review the material in whatever notes I am taking. Has anybody done anything like this? Any tips are appreciated. Thanks.

      A node id is a property under the file or org-headline so I don’t think you can add multiple nodes to a single headline. Maybe if you explain your use case a bit, there might be a better suggestion?

      If the bits of info are different enough then the best bet would be to have them as separate sub-headings. If bits of into are mostly related then you could consider either using aliases or tags.
