Storing screen view

Beginner1949
I just started using Zotero and wonder if it is possible to store my libraries, for example in a pdf or html file, exactly as they are shown on the screen (same fields and tags and the same sorting). I have not been successful with screen shots (cumbersome) or creating bibliographies (different display formats). Thanks for any help!

    I'm not understanding what you're asking here. Can you explain further?
  • dstillman
    You can generate an HTML report, if that helps:

    Thanks for the comment. English is not my native language which might be a problem. When I open a library in Zotero I can see (for example): first column: Title, second column: Creator, third column:... etc. I would like to store this in a file like pdf, html, csv etc. exactly as if I would make a screen shot so that I can watch it again and print it independent of Zotero.

    What is your use case here? What do you want to do with these screenshots?

    I want to see or print or send to a friend the screen shot for example arranged according to archive or other selection criteria.

    The best approach would likely be to select the items you want to send, right click, and then Export to CSV. You can open this file in a spreadsheet program like Excel and then arrange the items however you like.

    If what you need is exactly like a screenshot, why don't you just take a screenshot?
