Share Zotero Doc between Mac Office and Windows Office

tilmaniac
I created a document in Office for Mac and tried to edit it in Office for Windows on another computer.

This didn't work, I got the "You must place your cursor in a Zotero citation..." error.

Are Zotero additions to Word documents supposed to be compatible between Windows and Mac?

Edit: I had synced my library on both computers before attempting to share documents and was using fields.
As an additional question: Are fields or bookmarks better for this type of scenario?

    yes that should work (and usually does).
    Did you sync the Zotero database between the two computers?
    Did you use Fields or Bookmarks? (Document Preferences)
