Zotero links disappeared when I saved a Word doc as Google doc and then downloaded as Word doc
Help! I wrote a bunch of documents in MS Word for Mac and used Zotero-Word integration to add a bunch of references.
Then I turned those docs into Google docs so that people could read and comment on them.
Then I saved the Google docs as Word docs again.
Now, Zotero doesn't recognize ANY of the references. They just appear as plain text, not Zotero references.
Is there any way for me to fix this beyond going through and re-adding them all with Zotero? I want them as Zotero refs so that I can easily make a bibliography and change the reference style if needed.
Any advice is appreciated!

I don't think you have any option but to reinsert the references in the final document, or go back to the original word file.
