• I've tried what you said, reset tranlstors and styles, restarted the FF, saved the txt-file (in word) in unicode (utf-7), (which was the only one that produced a readable text), but Zotero says it can't find a translator. Before it could and it seem…

  in import from endnote/ Umlaute Comment by Gitty K January 31, 2008
• that would be a great improvement and also makes more sense than adding more and more pre-defined styles. There is an infinite number of them and there'll always be something missing. Thanks for the otherwise terrific work!!

  in own citations styles? Comment by Gitty K January 31, 2008

• thanks for your fast reply, unfortunately I can't figure out what exactlz you're suggesting to do. If I go into Zotero's setting and click export, there are only two other options (include URLs and Quick copy) no bibliography locale...

  in changing language settings of citation Comment by Gitty K January 24, 2008
• thanks that seems to be the reason. It happens only when I have two authors with the same surname (e.g. Smith and Smith)
