Embedded metadata misses a few fields on TNO repository

ba_tno
Entries on the TNO repository https://repository.tno.nl/ can be added to Zotero with the Embedded Metadata translator (https://github.com/zotero/translators/blob/master/Embedded Metadata.js), however it appears a few things only work partially:

- The abstract is truncated after about 140 characters and then followed by ellipsis
- The item type is always "Journal Article" regardless of the type of the entry
- The pages field remains empty
- The tags are not filled from the topics section of the entry
- The file is not downloaded (if available)

Here are two links I tried out and saw above behaviour:

    The generic translator can't do better than that -- the item type isn't in the site header, the description/abstract is truncated there, and the link to the PDF isn't in the metadata either.

    It'd certainly be possible to write a dedicated site translator that scrapes all of that information, but I don't think that's high priority for anyone who regularly contributes. Otherwise, the easiest way to improve import would be for the repository to improve its metadata.

    My bad, I didn't realize it only looks at the tags (the title of the translator should've given me a hint...).
    I will investigate if the repository can improve its metadata.
