Zotero uses inline CSS for highlights. You can save the complete webpage & highlighting will be retained. Highlights should be printed if you have "print background colors" selected in your browser. I think the default "HTML only" save option…

A DOI is a persistent identifier. A URL is (often a temporary) location. Many legacy formats were created before there were DOIs and/or are limited to having only a single URL field. Furthermore, Zotero can easily get the URL from the current…

That is an unreasonably long time. Have you deleted & disabled full text indexing?

This is planned. http://www.zotero.org/documentation/development_roadmap See the forums for work-arounds (shared collections, exporting, third-party servers, etc.).

For some reason, Word uses different shortcuts for editing than the rest of Windows uses. Refer to: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/843/ A third-party program is linked there, as is the MS tutorial on how to do this without additiona…

I don't know of style guides that mandate the use of smallcaps in software titles & I'm more accustomed to encountering the markup in the abstract or body of an article (where one is more likely to encounter software names). One interesting…

Unfortunately, I mean the former. Sometimes PRL is cited as "Phys. Rev. Letters," for instance. I work in materials science & "materials" (or "materialia" or other related words) in journal names in sometimes shortened to "Mat." and someti…

Note also that abbreviations are style-dependent. The last time I used endnote, I think it did support automatic publication abbreviations based on the user's choice of some small number (4?) of lists.

http://www.google.com/search?q=filetype%3Abib+\textsc gives several examples of smallcaps in software titles and in chemical names.

You can currently do this if you are able to customize the BibTeX export of your old reference management software to output well-crafted PDF links. Unfortunately, there is no common syntax for attachments in any of the the old/common export fo…

Have you updated your translators? That syntax WorksForMe in 1.0.7 (in that it will blindly rewrite what you give it as a 'file://' URI). I don't really like how PDF support is currently implemented for BibTeX, though--'pdf=' isn't commonly us…

So the file you will need to edit is actually mimetypes.rdf. Remove the current entries for the microsoft formats & add entries that look like:
-
You must do two more things: (1) enable the plugin (easy) and (2) edit your pluginreg.dat to add the MS filetypes (a bit harder).
-
The OpenOffice.org plugin for mozilla can view MS Office formats, but you must install/enable it and also edit your pluginreg.dat file to add the MS Office filetypes to the list.

Delicious Library (unfortunately) doesn't use any standard export format. Zotero does not import the app-specific formats that Delicious does export at this time. However, some other apps can import it & can then export to a file format th…

(1) You can try to import them as UTF-8 the first time. Some sites/programs don't export UTF-8. Some legacy export formats aren't technically UTF-8 compatible, etc. (2) You can manually correct them in Zotero. You can use whatever method for…

This should probably be added to the FAQ (please search the forums if you'd like more info, as it has been discussed frequently). Zotero cannot markup PDFs or any other file format that is not rendered natively by firefox. There are third-…

S3 is also not WebDAV-based. Since the "supported OSes" allow mounting WebDAV locally, perhaps the "PDF sync tool" should also support "local" storage (which could be WebDAV, an external drive, a mapped network drive, or something mapped to S3/gmai…

These aren't really zotero-specific questions, but are more generally on how to process metadata provided by IEEE. The metadata for that paper only lists author's given initials. It is a matter of your personal preference and the bibliographic…

No--Zotero's annotation tools do not presently work with ANY third-party PDF viewer. They will only work with formats that Firefox does not need a plugin to view.

GPLed djvused would do it. I don't know how popular djvu really is & seems like the full-text-indexing should be end-user extensible (unrtf, antiword/wv, and other text extraction tools would seem to be similarly useful).

(JabRef is GPL too, so one can look at its guts to see what it does ...)If anyone is interested in taking this project, you should note that Zotero's license will prevent any re-use of GPLed code. Jabref has a basic overview of XMP support & th…
