I'm meaning publishing. Basically we're (notionally) accepting both Word and LaTeX docs, but I want to use LaTeX for typesetting so need to copy the Word documents' text into LaTeX for that purpose -- which means using BibTeX to ensure the links bet…
-
Ah great, thanks @adamsmith One further question -- if I receive a document from someone containing Zotero references to sources I don't have in my local library, is that a problem? (I'm trying to create a publishing workflow for a journal, and I …
-
Sorry to revive this thread but I too am trying to work in the space between Word and LaTeX... Given that BBT has citekeys, is it not then trivial to create a CSL that wraps the references in '\cite{' and '}'? I notice the 'BibTeX generic citation …

Thanks @dstillman!

ODF Scan isn't working for me (Sorry to hijack thread but I don't want to pollute the forum with a new one) I have all dependencies installed (LO 6, plugin, Zotero 5.0.77-beta.6+6db1fbd13) and the XPI is 2.0.41, but the 'RTF Scan' option doesn't ch…

Did you get anywhere with this? I just had the same idea and would be happy to contribute.
-
Any news on this? I see there's an issue on GH referring to this thread https://github.com/zotero/zotero/issues/233

@bwiernik "Even Microsoft discourages the use of Master documents" Is that true? Do you have a reference?
-
@adomasven it actually seems a bit more stable now, curiously. I'll keep using it today and let you know. I did get a notification about an Office update being available -- I presume I should ignore that for now?
-
@adamsmith thanks!

Hi @adomasven and @adamsmith My Word version is 16, here's the full build info: "Microsoft Office 365 ProPlus Version 1705 (Build 8201.2213 Click-to-Run) Deferred Channel" (no idea what the last line means). I'm running on Windows 10 (v 1709, bu…
-
Hmm I've installed it and it appeared to work (I got the dialogue with the option to turn off updates) but it's periodically crashing Word when I try to insert a citation, giving this error: " Zotero experienced an error updating your document. Th…
-
Great, I'll give it a go. Thanks!
-
Great, thank you! The usual caveats aside, is it generally safe to install the Beta over the Stable build? (I use Firefox beta as standard, but Zotero's non-stable builds might be flakier)
-
This one is ~6,500 words, currently with 51 footnotes and 19 separate citations from the zotero database (which I guess it has to parse when it displays the non-Classic Add Citation dialogue). It's not unusable, but it's certainly noticeably slower…
-
I'm having the same problem -- I ran the sqlite command above but it doesn't help. Any of the word menu macros take 5-10 seconds to work, although curiously the Classic Add Citation dialogue is quicker. I'm not sure I want to risk the Beta, is it s…
-
I managed it by adding the following to line 265 of pdfAnnotations.js: if (anno.subtype == "Highlight") anno.markup = "(" + color_category + ") - " + anno.markup + ""; (note that it also adds a highlight to the note, so it's ea…
-
Zotfile is fantastic, thank you devs for working on it. I have a feature request, which I think should be quite simple -- I'd like to retain the functionality of pdfExtraction.colorNotes, but not split them into different notes; rather prefix each …
-
Yeah I played with Paper Machines but I couldn't get any output that was actually of use to me :) On the recommendation front I feel that's only major feature Zotero lacks; if it wasn't for (almost) everything else about it being superior that woul…
-
One thing I'd like to achieve (in an ideal world), which is sort of related to @dragonfly 's idea, would be a recommendation engine that queries Google Scholar using the existing references in a library, suggesting new ones based on what's already t…
-
@gurdas did you restart Zotero? It scans the translators directory on start-up. Also, I only use Standalone, so I can't speak to the behaviour of the Firefox addon (although I expect it is the same).
-
That's a great addition. I've migrated the repo to Github, you can see it here: https://github.com/melat0nin/zotero-translators Please submit some pull requests as you improve on the original script :)
-
@dragonfly Glad you worked it out. This is precisely the sort of visualisation I want to achieve. The question of the tree depends on one's usage of Zotero -- I tend to categorise everything in deeply-nested collections (including having the same…
-
Here's the hierarchical JSON translator. As mentioned above, it doesn't include all the metadata, so will need to be extended to be a "true" export. https://bitbucket.org/laurenced85/zotero-translators/raw/master/Hierarchical JSON.js EDIT: repo ha…
-
I've done a bit (a lot) of refactoring and now I have a nested JSON export, from which I'll build the XML. It only has the fields I'm interested in though (title, contributors, year, and tags), since mind maps don't need more than that. It would b…
-
Okay so I've managed to output some XML that's hierarchical and compatible with Freemind -- here's a mind map of my PhD literature (zoomed out of course, there are ~400 papers on there!): https://s16.postimg.org/i2xul9pw5/Capture.png The code is v…
-
Initially I just want to visually map the hierarchy of my collections, so I can quickly see the titles which relate to a particular folder. Tags would be the next step, as would the 'related items' options in Zotero. How easy the latter two are will…
-
Thanks for the pointers. I'll have a go at mashing up the Zotero RDF and XML translators to generate a mindmap file -- they're pretty simple XML, so it should be possible. I'll tackle the problem of items in multiple collections later!
-
Thanks, I just came across that as I posted. What's the best way to parse it? I tried playing around with Gephi but it seems to come unstuck on the vocabulary Zotero RDF uses.
-
I've since migrated back to Chrome because e10s is taking so long to be implemented.
