You can also add your library and PDFs directly via iTunes, but that is obviously less convenient as it won't automatically update.

BibDesk saves the full path of the PDFs in the bib file, and PocketBib then tries to guess what part of that path is relative to the Dropbox folder.  If it fails, PocketBib asks you to manually locate a PDF that you try to display, and PocketBib will then use that information to guess the location of the rest of your PDFs.
