Recovering citations from a Zotero Word document
Hi! My colleagues computer crashed (possibly beyond repair). Based on my suggestion she was using Zotero to help her write her thesis, but unfortunately she did not sync her library. She has a back-up of the word document containing some 150 citations. Is there an easy way to "import" citations from a Word document back to Zotero? Does the document itself contain the relevant information or is it lost without a link to the database? Thanks for your help, she's really bummed about it (even though she can always re-insert the citations manually).
It seems to me that all the information is there and a "reverse import" back to Zotero should be possible.
In any case, her new library will be synced with her account, lesson learnt (I told her in the first place, but since she was planning on using it only on that one machine, she never set it up).
And indeed, more people should know that to sync is to backup...
Very nice Reference extractor.
I have added my reference on google docs and Zotero plugin there. And I have downloaded as a word, seems the links are lost in the process.
Would be a way to get the references back?
My computer crashed and my library was not updated o
Thank you,
Best
