Citing another item in an annotation

warwickmm

What's the recommended way of citing another item in an annotation? For example, if i want to add an annotation that says

"See page 3 of [some other paper]"

is there a way to add a link to the referenced paper? Or is the only way to copy/paste the citation?

When you say annotation, do you mean in the PDF viewer?

warwickmm

Yes, this is using the built-in PDF viewer.

Has this been resolved? I'm also interested in something similar. Specifically, in an annotation in the PDF viewer of paper X, I want to write something like: "see [here](link to annotation somewhere in PDF viewer of paper Y) for details." so that when I click on the hyperlink "here", it opens up another tab of the PDF viewer with paper Y open and the annotation in paper Y highlighted in view. To summarize, is there some way to link annotations in two different PDFs in Zotero?

@mhdadk, I have not discovered a way to do this yet.

I am interested in this feature too.

As am I. Has this been resolved?

I'm also looking forward to the feature of cross-references between documents. This is very important at the final stage of collecting information on a particular topic.

This is definitely a necessary feature!
