Libre office and zotero

vravi · September 11, 2012

I have Libre Office 3.5.6. I have installed the zotero plug in. It worked for a month, but now, when I try to insert citation, it says "Zotero experienced an error updating your document. Syntax Error: Illegal XML character.'

Could anyone help with this? Thanks very much.

Try a different citation style for a start (change in "Set Document Preferences").

Thanks Adam,

Unfortunately, it doesn't even allow me to do that. If I click on any of the zotero icons, the error message pops up.

that's no good - try running through these then:

good chance that just copying the document will do the trick.
