You can save the "Create Bibliography" output to RTF and open in Word. That will have correct margins.
-
Standard Vancouver/NLM style doesn't use italics. Which style requirements are you looking to follow?
-
That's a bit unintuitive (and will likely change in the near-ish) future, but is expected: If a page doesn't include structured metadata but does have citations with DOIs (such as Gelman's blog), Zotero offers to import the items with DOIs. To impo…
-
You're not the first to ask, but not possible, no, and it's not an easy fix/change to allow that, either, I'm afraid.
-
Currently, Extra is the only way to handle this. A better date field (able to handle things like date ranges and uncertain dates) is very much needed, but absent that, the Extra field is the only way to go and the roundtrip issues are going to be as…
-
Ah OK, you can then modify the style to add ibid -- shouldn't be hard based on your previous modifications but feel free to ask for details. No way to un-omit authors in bulk though
-
What an unnecessary waste of time. I'm sorry you have to deal with that. I'm afraid I don't see any way to automate that change. You have to change the sentence structure (as in your first example) and then undo omit author (which you can do using …
-
Yes, that'll happen automatically
-
Yes, absolutely, that's one of the things public groups are for. Note (in case that's relevant) that non members will not have access to attachments shared in the group: you can't use Zotero groups to disseminate PDFs and other files.
-
Mostly. ISBN data comes from libraries, not publishers. And you don't have to be a member of an RA to register a DOI. You can get DOIs for documents by placing them in free repositories like Zenodo or Figshare.
-
Just one where you get an item in Zotero but no snapshot, i.e. the behavior (I think) you originally reported. Also see the other requested info above
-
hmm -- but the result you see on that page -- failure of multiple translators and no item is imported at all -- isn't what you initially report, which was no snapshot attaching. We still want to look at this at specific URLs which clearly exemplif…
-
I don't think there's a way to create a bibliography in Word that will remain synced with changes in Zotero, I'm afraid (not a terribly common request, either, though it comes up occasionally). The only tools that do do this are online tools that sy…
-
All academic library catalogs, certainly in the US, are public, even when the libraries themselves aren't
-
If you don't get ISBNs via Zotero, that's typically some Worldcat issue -- we can say more with details on the ISBNs. That said, the browser icon used on books found in library catalogs is indeed one of the best way of adding books, too.
-
ZoteroBib doesn't actually use different algorithms -- so (with the exception of URLs which don't work in Zotero by design) if an identifier works there but not in Zotero, that's always worth reporting. The other way around (Zotero works but ZotBib …
-
Mit etwas Aufwand, aber warum genau? Das Add-on brauchst Du wirklich nur wenn Du Zitationen und Bibliographie hast.
-
There's still some confusion here -- if you have a collection in Zotero that you want to create a bibliography from, use right-click--> Create Bibliography in Zotero itself (not the Word add-on). You don't need the Word add-on. The Word add-on's …
-
Could you clarify what you mean by "group subscription"? Is that a lab subscription? An institutional subscription? If you just received (and accepted) an invitation to join a _group_ that doesn't at all affect your storage, so that might be a misu…
-
Can you say a bit more -- hard to follow what you're doing/trying to do. You've inserted citations using the Zotero Word(?) add-on and now you click add Bibliography and ... what exactly happens?
-
I don't think there's much to troubleshoot given the lack of debug, error messages, etc., but just to be clear since this is a bit confusing in your post -- Zotero instance and Zotero data directory are entirely separate, so you could have uninstall…
-
These are duplicate citations that either a) inserted from the same library, in which case you can easily merge them in the duplicates view b) inserted (possibly) from the same library but some of them since deleted - in that case you have to figure…
-
@bagehot -- how are you adding these? NBER papers should import as preprints with most of that information, except place of publication, filled out. Beyond that, you can use Zutilo to copy item field in batch. @cinnamingirl I don't think that's pos…
-
This would typically just show the name of the app. The (5) suggests you somehow managed to have multiple versions of it, hard to say more without looking at the computer & registry.
-
The HTML includes all sort of formatting and semantic information -- whether that's useful or not really depends on how people use it and it's obviously impossible to get the information back in there after export, so we default to including more in…
-
LLMs are not very good as CSL (unsurprisingly given the comparative scarcity of training data -- there are maybe just 2,000 CSL styles out there). isn't valid CSL, should throw an error on install, and I'm surprised it works. The correct code for …

https://www.zotero.org/support/troubleshooting_translator_issues If the initial steps don't fix this, please provide all information listed in the last step.
-
Maybe the error message will have something helpful, but just to make sure -- you're dragging to your personal library, not to a group (which could have file attachments disabled)?
-
Kannst Du das Literaturverzeichnis einfach wieder einfuegen ("Add Bibliography")? Am Stil sollte es nicht liegen.

(The artwork thing is a bug, I'm pretty sure; it's fixed in the 18th edition style which we'll release soon)
