In changed version of document (docx) zotero doesn't recognize my citations anymore

rctromp
My Word document has been edited by multiple people but now, in the final version it doesn't recognizes my citations anymore. I work on windows with both zotero standalone and firefox (mostly use the latter one) and the Word plugin. New citations work fine in the final document.

I have tried some things with document preferences and stuff, but somehow everything seems to stay as plain text, instead of references. Is there an easy fix?

(Im used to use LaTeX/bibtex so maybe my thinking of the processing is wrong)

Tnx!

    I'm afraid the links to citations are probably gone. That happens most commonly when a docx file is saved with software that doesn't support Word fields, which includes google docs, Word Online, LibreOffice, and Pages

    Yes, this seems to me like a very probable explanation... OK, good to know for next time.

    Tnx Adam!
