Creating Automator Workflow/Application for RTF Scan

davidleitner · March 19, 2013

Hi folks, Is it possible to create automator applications for Zotero? Or does it not have an API for that?

What I would like to do is make an app that I could drop an rtf file onto, Zotero would launch, run the rtf scan on that file, and make an output file.

Zotero is platform independent, so developing a platform specific API (i.e. Automator) is unlikely.

You probably could make an app for this, but it would require some javascript coding on your part. If you really want to do that, you can get help with technical questions on the zotero-dev mailing list.

Thanks, mronkko. I will look into it.
