Footnote in Word only prints transfers short title

gstokes
When I cite a text in word, it works fine except that it only transfers the author's last name and the short title, not the full citation. How do I regulate that?

    What citation style, what is the reference information you are feeding it, and what output are you expecting?

    I am using Chicago Manual of Style Full Note and am trying to cite a reference from my library as a footnote. I would like the full style the first time I cite a source, and the short version every subsequent time. The first time I do this in a new document, a panel comes up making it possible to select a style, and things work fine. However, if I go to a second document and start once again to cite a reference from my library (thus needing a full cite, not a short version) I do not get a panel allowing me to select styles, but rather simply a short form citation.

    What platform and version of Zotero are you using? Document preferences such as the bibliography style should be just that—preferences specific to a particular document.

    OK, but how do you set preferences? I am using Windows XP, Zotero 3.0.3, and Word latest version, whatever that is.

    I believe that you gave the version of Firefox & not of Zotero.

    In Word, at the end of the zotero toolbar, there is an icon that looks like a gear with a 'z' at the lower right. This is the document preferences button.

    The document preferences window should come up automatically when you try to insert a citation into a new document. If it doesn't, something's wrong.
