beginner's question: how to import paper from PubMed web page
Dear Zotero Pros,
I'm just getting started with Zotero, attracted by the promise of automated import directly from the page that one navigated to. I was testing this on a PubMed page displaying a paper that I'm interested in. I tried to import that paper into my library with the New Item From Current Page but the imported entry didn't contain much - no author, no abstract, no MeSH keywords. Only the PubMed ID works for me.
I read on the Zotero pages that the translator is supposed to do that automatically. Do I have to install that separately? How do I start the translator?
Thanks for your input.
Best, j

suckaleGreat. I just overlooked the little icon at the URL bar and was searching around the lower zotero window from where this functionality cannot be accessed. Thanks.
