The bibliographic database in OO.o/LibreOffice has many limitations & the lack of ability to import standard formats is one of them. refbase and JabRef & other programs can export to an opendocument spreadsheet that has the same schema as t…

Please don't make multiple posts: developers read every post, so there's no need. Further, your "issue" is not realy related to this thread. Zotero stores your PDFs in some of those ZIP files. That you're able to see PDFs on another machine shows…

This isn't a Zotero bug, but a limitation of COinS. All Records on that page have:rft_val_fmt=info:ofi/fmt:kev:mtx:journalMany haverft.genre=news...which could potentially identify the item type. But it isn't valid. The specification enumerates: …

I don't remember how we came to have \\'{a} in zotero. The mapping table came from refbase, which has the preferred {\\'a} It seems like changing to the behavior you describe (perhaps without the redundant brackets) would be ideal.

EDIT:beaten to it by a few minutes, but see http://www.zotero.org/support/dev/exposing_metadata

Also, given the context of that discussion: it may be better to add import to tinderbox (so that TB users can take advantage of data from other reference managers). Writing new Zotero exporters is certainly possible, but I don't see any preferred m…

I have tried copying and pasting from windows character map and that isn't workingIt should if you select a standard font and copy/paste the unicode characters, rather than using the symbol font.

I don't understand the question (and that is better suited for the people who support pandoc anyway).pandoc --bibliography=biblio.mods input.txtshould work (and should be almost identical to the way you're invoking pandoc to use BibTeX now).
-
Ah. You had mentioned LaTeX, so I assumed that was what you were working with. If you're using pandoc, you might try using MODS XML export. It is a richer, more modern format & citeproc-hs (used by pandoc) has native support for it (rather th…

CSL and BibTeX are currently in two separate toolchains. Do you mean BST files? beebe/chicagoa.bst and chicago.bst and chicago-annote.bst and frankenstein/achicago.bst all seem to have month macro expansion.
-
First is that dates than include months are just imported as "jan", "feb", etc.This is done according to the standard. I don't think Zotero should change away from this. You'll need to either edit your BST file or choose to modify the BibTeX file …

Is this http://www.zotero.org/styles/elsevier-harvard except with no journal abbreviation? Which might be the same as: https://www.zotero.org/trac/export/5582/csl/soil-biology-biochemistry.csl and perhaps we should add yet another elsevier style th…

How close is Elsevier's Harvard Style (with titles): http://www.zotero.org/styles/elsevier-harvard

Finding and reporting minimum failing examples (by finding references that didn't import from the large file & testing to confirm they fail to import individually) is probably the best way to figure out what improvements need to be made to the t…

@caitlinkx, your question doesn't seem to be related to this thread. See if http://www.zotero.org/support/word_processor_integration helps, but find a more relevant thread or start a new one if you have issues.
-
The developers read every thread, including the one you posted last week. No response usually means that nobody has anything of value to contribute just at that moment. SALT last updated their style file in 2007 & was developed when the author…

I do not understand how having a multilingual bibliography relates to this problem. Can you please give us:example from a BibTeX .bib database of one English reference and one German reference.bst file you now useexpected output after latex/bibtex …

@adamsmith: The RIS specification was revised last October...perhaps to document the behaviour that Endnote has evolved fairly organically: http://www.refman.com/support/risformat_intro.asp Somewhere else on the forum, someone has consolidated the …
-
I think Zotero should conform to the written RIS specification where possible (and this sometimes means implementations that differ from Endnote). T2 is now used for conference names. But some of the things in confPaperFiledMap are uncommon: usin…

also look at some of the other wiley styles (particularly ecological letters, Human Resource Management Journal, and Springer Author Date). One of those might be very close to what you need.

I don't really see how downloading & using the offical binaries from mozilla would take "time". But, you can use backports to get a newer version of iceweasel: http://mozilla.debian.net/ I've not tested zotero with iceweasel, though.
-
I've seen a few restrict the size of the bibliography for space concerns. You can switch to a numbered citation style. I'm not sure if I've seen any that restrict the number of times you can have in-document citations to references in the bibliogr…

It sounds like they're trying to do this: http://www.zotero.org/support/kb/importing_formatted_bibliographies

Does an appropriate tag in the .bib file not exist?Not really. BibTeX predates the web & there is no wide-spread field for this info. Some schemes that are used: urldate, lastchecked, co-opting a generic field like you've done. See: http://fo…

Many items data are not imported (Name of database, Language, URL, etc.)DB - Name of Database LA - Language UR - URLUntil very recently, DB and LA were not part of the RIS spec. They are now, though & so the Zotero translator should be improved…
-
A deliberate decision was made to not escape urls. Most modern BibTeX styles use url.sty or other URL-aware packages that don't require escaping (and may actually break URLs). See, e.g. http://www.michaelshell.org/tex/ieeetran/bibtex/
-
This is very likely to be BibTeX-style dependent. The URL field is not escaped, because that breaks URLs in some styles. You should be able to either edit BibTeX.js or use a search/replace to use either work-around with very little work. Dependin…

When snapshots are added by the translator, the webpage's html is the only thing that is downloaded. If that file uses relative links to style files and/or images (as arXiv and PROLA both do), you will not have that information. When snapshots are…
