Translator issue: no PDF downloads from John Benjamins e-Platform

mark · January 17, 2018

I have instituational access to this article: http://www.jbe-platform.com/content/journals/10.1075/gest.16.2.01ken

The Zotero translator doesn't dowload the PDF, which for this paper is at:
http://www.jbe-platform.com/deliver/gest.16.2.01ken.pdf?itemId=http://jbenjamins.metastore.ingenta.com/content/journals/10.1075/gest.16.2.01ken&mimeType=pdf&isFastTrackArticle=

It looks like only the first part of the URL (up to .pdf) is necessary to get to the file.

That's 8. here: https://www.zotero.org/support/troubleshooting_translator_issues
the site doesn't link to the PDF in the metadata. We could write a translator, but that always takes some time, so you could also ask them if they'd be willing to add a citation_pdf_url metatag.

Apologies, I should've known. I have written to them although I think that, too, will take quite some time before they implement it (if they're willing). For now, Zotfile comes to the rescue so no hurry.
