Thanks fbennett - and thanks to everyone who has been working on this with me! I just want to clarify that nothing I am writing is actually RTL - I am transliterating everything into the roman alphabet. So when I tell zotero that something is …

Thanks!

reinstalling version 4.0.8 fixed the problem!! Formatting is correct and no strange boxes!
-
thanks - reinstalling the older version didn't help.
-
Just ran Apple's font book - no duplicated fonts found.
-
The difference in format has to do with the capitalization of the titles. You should notice that if the language field is blank the first letter of each word is capitalized. This is incorrect when the title is a work in Arabic (or French and many ot…
-
okay! I can get rid of the boxes. I changed the title slightly and put them into a new word document. No boxes!! BUT the formatting was wrong because I had not specified the language of the source as Arabic. When I went back to zotero an…

Everything is already in Times New Roman in Word - do you mean changing the font in Zotero?
-
Hi, The original mess was probably caused that way - I imported the item metadata from worldcat, which resulted in a title in Arabic characters, then I deleted those and retyped the data. It makes sense that a right-to-left embedding character…
-
I'm sorry, it didn't work. I tried deleting and retyping the "al" that begins both the last name of the author and the title in zotero and then refreshing the document. The boxes are still there. Just after the restart there was a pop-up. I c…
-
all of the sources that get a little box seem to have the same author. in this example footnotes 1 and 2 are different works by the same author - while 3 is a work by a different author http://imgur.com/5nAN2cL
-
So I tried a few things and just wanted to tell you how they went: When I changed the citation style to author-date the boxes remained, and the parentheses of the parenthetical citations also got messed up: http://imgur.com/4wgWRHT,QMMNvQP#0 …

Hi, I'm sorry, but in my version of word there is no "options" under the file menu. There is "preferences" but that doesn't "advanced" or "web options," ect. There is a File -> Save as Web Page -> Encoding, which says the document is saved as …
-
okay. let me know if you think of something else. If not, I will try reverting to the old version tomorrow.
-
I just tried that, but all the citations - with their strange characters - remained. If the new version of Zotero can no longer handle diacritics, that would be a huge problem for me - is there any way to return to the previous version?
-
Also, I just noticed, but they seem to only be in citations where the title of work cited has special characters in it (diacritics, because the titles are transliterated from arabic), even when the title is hidden ("ibid.")
-
is there any way to delete all zotero citations? it would be a pain, but then I could copy and past the text into another document, redo the citations and see if that solves the problem
-
Did those help?

Thanks! http://imgur.com/jhfTBWo,XuTRTXB

Hi Adam, Yes, it seems to be working properly when I do it all over again. Thanks for helping me through it.
-
what do you mean the same citation? They were all citations of the same source with different page numbers.
-
Hi - sorry for the delay. Step-by-step: 1) When I figured out how to add pg numbers directly (instead of manually), I clicked on my first citation and hit the "edit citation" icon in the zotero toolbar in Word for Mac. 2) That pull…
-
I am doing it in the word plugin - I click the shaded cite in the Quick Format box to open the cite options window and then enter the page number where it says "page." I have already that page - it didn't mention that putting in a subsequent r…
-
Thank you! Problem solved.

correction: v. 3.0.14
-
I'm sorry, you're correct, when I cite it later it does change - sorry for wasting your time. (And yest, I meant 3.0.14 - made that mistake in another post as well. Thank you!
