Insert attached files into Bibliography list
I would like to know how to set up my bibliography list in a Word document so that each item listed in the bibliography has a link to the file that I attached to the corresponding item in the Zotero library.
In this way, anybody I share the Word document with can have access to the actual files that are cited and referenced in the Word document.
Is this possible? Thank you.

Thank you for your help.
If you insert a citation using the Zotero word plugin, you can place the cursor in it, click the Add/Edit Citation button to open the citation dialogue, then click the blue bubble for the item and then click the Open in My Library button.
Alternatively, you could copy references to Word by dragging them from Zotero or using the Quick Copy shortcut Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+C. Then, using the Zutilo plugin, you can “Copy Zotero select link” (for the desktop Zotero program) or “Copy Zotero URI” (for a link to the web library) from the right click menu.
This is the overall objective: I want to be able to print the Word file I am working on as a pdf, then share that pdf with a colleague and have this pdf include a link to each file that is being cited in the document and included in the reference list.
I tried the first suggestion above "If you insert...". I open the citation dialogue, then click on the blue bubble for the item, then click on Open in My Library button. Nothing happens. The pdf file is not shown in the citation dialogue. I am not sure it should be?
For the second suggestion above "Alternatively...", I downloaded the Zutilo plug-in, but I cannot find the options to "Copy Zotero select link" or "Copy Zotero URI" when right click. BTW, am I right-clicking on the right thing?
Thanks in advance.
I wonder if there might be another alternative to reach the same objective, i.e. when I submit my Word document, have it be so that the reader can click on a citation or an item in the reference list, and open the pdf file attached to it.
Do Zotero groups do this? Other options? Thank you.
I wonder if maybe there is another way to share the file attached to a library item, and thus to a citation, with another person I am working with on the Word doc? Thanks.
Now if I already have a library with multiple items and I want to make it a "Group library" to be able to share it with other, how do I do so?
