PDF metadata when logged in through web
Hi all,
I usually add articles to my library with the Chrome connector, but if there are issues getting the PDF, I may have to log in, download it. Then the drag-and-drop works into the program works well and automagically creates the entry from the PDF metadata.
I sometime want to add PDFs to my Zotero library when I'm not on my home machine.
I finally realized that I can add a journal article via its DOI and then attach the PDF separately. Not a huge deal, but is there any way to upload a PDF when logged in through the web, and then have it capture the metadata to generate the entry?

adamsmithIn the web interface? No, sorry, not possible

transplantidThanks. The DOI import works pretty well, though, so I can't complain about one extra step!
