  • removing for instance non-breaking spaces from export to bibtexCan you please provide a concrete example? AFAIK, non-breaking spaces should only be used when you have a non-breaking space in the Zotero database. Maintaining these is probably desir…
  • Haven't used it, but InDesign should be able to import word processor files with Zotero-generated bibliographies. You should also be able to use the QuickCopy features to paste formatted citations into InDesign. AFAIK, InDesign has no standard met…
  • Kind of: sort by "year" will still use the month and/or day (if present). If your database contains mixed forms of the date, the sort results will not be very intuitive: A paper by Shu from August 2007 will be listed before a Piszarev paper from Oc…
  • Could Zotero enable Adobe Reader's Highlight Text and Sticky Note tools when you view an archived PDF file through Zotero?No. Adobe's developer API prohibits this & the only applications that can legitimately do this have been created by Adobe …
  • It isn't "expected," but the defect has been previously reported.
  • Choose an un-numbered citation style for quick-copy

  • http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/6663 reported problems with the Vista-Aero theme. Which theme did you have issues with?
  • WebDAV is not meant for backup (at least not yet) & is only meant for syncing between multiple machines.
  • "application data" is likely a hidden directory. Show hidden directories and/or type the location manually into your address bar.
  • There are work-arounds available Most universities have proxy access, so you might be able to get those documents. I tag references with a "toget" or similar if I don't have proxy access and/or need to file an interlibrary loan request.
  • but on the zotero webpage My Library is empty.This is populated by using the sync feature of the beta 1.5b2. If you are using the 1.0 stable version or are not using sync, your library is supposed to be empty.
  • If you want to store things in "My Documents" or any other custom location, you are able to. I don't see what the big deal is. However, I believe that the default makes sense for "users" too: if they want to backup or mirror their firefox profile,…
  • Also note that Zotero+Firefox use UTF-8. The default font probably supports the entry of most greek characters.
  • The span is hidden because we'll provide soon bibliographic information in many format such as Endnote or Refworks.You don't have to hide the span to achieve this! By hiding COinS, other tools like LibX and OpenURL Referrer will not benefit from y…
  • If I might gripe a bit: You hide your COinS with CSS, which makes this useless to most clients other than Zotero. 'revue' is not an enumerated genre in the ANSI/NISO OpenUIRL spec. 'pages' is wholly redundant to 'spage' & 'epage' & shouldn…
  • Are all zotero.sqlite.* files in the same directory, or are they in different directories? If the latter, you may just need to change the zotero data directory (per the instructions in the support page). If they are in the same directory, it isn't…
  • Please describe your error and what you are trying to do about it more precisely. How are you trying to open the library? By expanding the zotero pane in the same firefox profile as you had first collected the references in? If so, what do you se…
  • I have also generally prefer LaTeX for document authoring & management. However, I find I sometimes have to use OO.o & I have had papers accepted that were written in OO.o Writer with unmodified Zotero-generated bibliographies. I think tha…
  • As far as I know there's no way we can do this from within Firefox.That's probably true generally. I don't think there's a cross-platform way to set window z-Level. On Winodws versions of firefox, I believe that the alwaysRaised window attribute i…
  • Rather than "create item from current page", just drag the PDF's URL into zotero. This will download the file & will not attach it to an item. You will therefore be able to retrieve metadata for it. For PDFs you've already downloaded, you jus…
  • Sounds good. Please alert us if they update their author instructions or if they advise you why they won't update their author instructions to match what they actually want from authors.
  • Probably no reason to repost: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/4738 Perhaps you didn't use UTF-8 characters in the CSL or perhaps the font in your bibliography doesn't use UTF-8? And does your style validate?
  • As an author it has happened to me more than once that any difference, however minor, to the "standard" way of reporting reference of a journal was highlighted by the editorial office and needed to be fixed.Presumably they'd, at least, update their …
  • It is not uncommon for references in submitted manuscripts to differ from those in print. Where there is disagreement, it seems like the former should be used.
  • There is no way to rename files on export. If you want files named a certain way, you'd have to rename them using zotfile or another tool. If you are already happy with the file naming & just want to export files, you can export a Zotero RDF w…
  • At this time, only a text search via google scholar and a DOI search via crossref are performed. There is still room for improvement, of course. WorldCat, unlike google scholar, lacks a full text index for their content. Dissertations, unlike art…
  • Not at this time: there's no semantic markup in Zotero fields & there is no way to differentiate proper nouns/etc. in title case.
  • Please give a link to the documentation and/or examples that show this. The Diabetes Care style is currently a dependent style on Vancouver. Citations are, at least, formatted very similarly in the limited documentation I found for Diabetes Care: …
