XPDF download
Hi, i really need to be able to use the metadata retrieval option but even though i have downloaded:
x86, Windows -- pdftops, pdftotext, pdftohtml, pdftoppm, pdftopng, pdfimages, pdfinfo, pdffonts, and pdfdetach only:
xpdfbin-win-3.04.zip (includes 32-bit and 64-bit binaries) (10794993 bytes)
and the file appears on my desktop - now unzipped - i can't seem to link it to Zotero Standalone? or Standalone can't find it? i am trying to get my IT people to help me connect the two but need further instruction please. your website does not seem to have step-by-step instructions? please help, i really want to be able to use Zotero as my bibliographic tool for my library for my PhD and have heaps of PDFS i want to import.

An error occurred while attempting to download the Xpdf utilities from zotero.org. Please try again later, or view the documentation for manual installation instructions.
i don't have administrative rights on this computer - could that be it? however it is not even getting to the part where it asks for permissions?
https://www.zotero.org/support/debug_output#zotero_for_firefox_or_zotero_standalone
but it's almost certainly your IT blocking this, either via a required proxy or via a firewall.
I apparently need your destination host (IP Address?) to ask for permission to sync with your server and break through the firewall. are you able to give that to me please?
many Thanks
Carmen
Without that, we can walk you through installing the PDF tools manually, but retrieve metadata won't work and I don't see how we could give you a sufficiently specific set of rules there.
Thanks Again
