Retrieve Metadata
Hi All,
I am able to use the "retrieve metadata" feature by right-clicking on a PDF that I just dragged into Zotero, and this seems great. But when I already have an article in Zotero (typically transferred from my Mendeley library), and the metadata is wrong, I am not able to access "retrieve metadata" by right-clicking on the PDF file. Is there an easy way to incorporate metadata into correcting a huge batch of articles that were transferred with bad or incomplete metadata?
FYI, I'm a brand new Zotero user. Thanks for any comments on this post.

You can, individually, drag PDFs away from their parent item (it's a bit finicky but definitely work) and the retrieve metadata as usual, if that's something you're interested in.
