Zotero in Google Chrome
Hi,
I'm trying to save a webpage that contains a pdf document using Google Chrome (v. 33.0.1750.146 m) for Windows 8 Pro (x64).
Unfortunately, when I click on the right mouse button, I can't see the "Zotero" option showing up on the menu, so that I can save the document. I can do that with Firefox, but with Google Chrome it's not working.
While viewing my preferences, I can see that I have the plugin "Zotero Connector 4.0.8.2" installed, and I also installed Zotero Standalone, but in fact I can't really understand for what I need to use it while working with Google Chrome.
Does anyone has an idea why this is happening with Google Chrome?
Thanks!
Hugo Daniel

The easiest way to save a PDF to Standalone is to drag the favicon — the icon that appears to the left of the URL — into the Standalone window. (Or, obviously, if there's an actual article details page, you can and should use the address bar icon to save from that instead of trying to save directly from the PDF.)
There'll likely be a better equivalent to Zotero for Firefox's "Create Web Page Item from Current Page" button at some point.
Thanks for the feedback.
I came across the same request.
After one year, has something changed regarding fetching PDFs from Chrome's PDF viewer using the Zotero Connector?
Thankfully,
