Changing to Bookends as a reference manager
Hi, I've been using Zotero for a while, but need to migrate to Bookends for better integration into Mellel. Is there a way to export Word documents, which have citations created using Zotero Word plug-in, in such a way that Bookends will recognise them, and I will be able to edit the citations (in Word) using bookends? Is there a way to get Zotero to produce citations that a Bookends scan will recognise, for instance?
Sorry to be asking a 'leaving Zotero' question - I love this software, just wish it had better Mellel/Scrivener integration.
Thanks

Literature and Latte really do not seem to care. Every time I look on their message boards I see exactly what you are saying. People scoffing at the idea that their software cant be perfected. That scrivener referencing is quite frankly shambolic, ugly and difficult.
I also get the impression that they look down on windows users as windows peasants.

Organon looked promising but didn't work for me, Manuskript also looked great but I think it still needs more work. It seems that every writing tool I have come across, which does look great and has a lot of the same features as scrivener, seems to be Apple-based.
Most alternatives appear to be aimed at writers of fiction and as a writer of non-fiction and academic manuscripts, those are of limited use to me. But Manuskript looks promising.
