Upgrade StorageAvailable for beta testing: Add annotations directly to word processor documents

In the latest Zotero beta, the word processor plugins feature a new Add Annotation button that lets you insert one or more annotations directly into your document, with active Zotero citations that automatically generate bibliography entries.
Previously, you could add annotations to Zotero notes and insert notes into your document with active citations, but it's no longer necessary to create an intermediate note if you prefer to work directly in your word processor.
Add Annotation opens a new mode in the citation dialog that expands attachments to show individual annotations. You can browse or search for annotations, choose one or more, and then add them to your document, along with active citations and any comments you added. Image and ink annotations are inserted as images.
We hope this helps create a seamless workflow in which you can save files into Zotero, annotate them in the reader, and insert those annotations directly into your document with proper citations.

From the items list, you can also create a note from all of an item's annotations — or annotations from multiple items — and then use the plugin's Add Note button to insert the entire note into the document.
