importing from Papers3 into Zotero4
I was able to export the collection information from Papers3 mac version using the BibTeX complete format but it doesn't include collection information; the only other issue is that a small number of pubmed articles (126/4k) had blank title/abstract fields in zotero even though the few I checked had them in the BibTeX file; otherwise the import into Zotero was successful.
FYI I used BibTeX complete because I read somewhere that BibTeX was the only option that supported PDF path and supported by Zotero.
thanks for any help

PS Hopefully not repeating but couldn't find this topic elsewhere and I am zotero newbie so please point to other threads if previously discussed.

If you post a sample bibtex where Zotero import is missing data we can take a look, shouldn't happen.
this is the particular record missing title and abstract in zotero standalone 4.0.19

abstract = {We evaluated adult Nigerian patients with antiretroviral switch to second-line treatment with ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitor (PI/r)-based regimens due to virologic failure (confirmed HIV-1 RNA viral load [VL] >1000 copies/mL) during first-line antiretroviral therapy. Proportion of patients with VL >400 copies/mL and characteristics associated with nonsuppression during second-line treatment are described. Approximately 15% of patients (34 of 225) had VL >400 copies/mL at 1-year after treatment switch to PI/r-based regimens. In adjusted analyses, VL ≥5 log(10) copies/mL at treatment switch (odds ratio [OR] 2.90 [confidence interval (CI) 1.21-6.93]); duration of first-line treatment after virologic failure >180 days (OR 2.56 [CI 1.0-6.54]); and PI/r regimen adherence <90% (OR 3.27 [CI 1.39-7.68]) were associated with VL >400 copies/mL at 1 year of second-line treatment. We therefore recommend that the maximum permissible time between suspicion of virologic failure and completion of antiretroviral treatment switch should not exceed 6 months when patients develop first-line antiretroviral failure in resource-limited settings.},

and yes that did work for me, even if I include the previous record.
Could it have happened because I was transferring almost 4k records with pdfs at once? thanks again
If you can reproduce this with smaller bits of the bibtex we'd be interested in taking a look at those (you can post longer bibtex files to gist.github.com as a public gist).
thanks again
Another thing that comes to mind is that it is consistent (I did twice, once on a mac and another on a PC) so it is probably not due to the number of records or I would expect it to be more random ?
thanks
Tommy
thanks again for the great tool!
