Lost library - possible to import from docx?

blaabaer
Hi, everyone. I recently had to reinstall windows and forgot to save my zotero library. However I still have the docx I was working on, and all the items from my library are citations in said docx. There is also a list/bibliography. Is it possible for Zotero to take the information from this docx to recreate my library? Or will I have to do that manually?

    Not really. Although Zotero 3.0 does store citation information embedded in the document, there is currently no way to import that back to Zotero. (This is a planned feature, but has not been implemented yet.)

    I really recommend setting up syncing of your library to avoid losing data in the future.

    I was searching for something similar. If it's not too late for you, you can do it semi-auto, using this website : http://www.hubmed.org/citation.htm (for biomedical though, maybe there is something similar in other fields)
