  • Omeka's COinS output could have a one-to-one mapping to Zotero types for imported items, but then would run into issues with actually representing the metadata, which is difficult or impossible to hammer into the formats OpenURL provides.Do you have…
  • This is how it should look like in the end: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ySHk8rzIU8U/UTPTOjLlBRI/AAAAAAAAGBQ/abfsLt7lANA/s640/zotero-extract+annotations.jpg ... 2nd line is the extracted text as a note attached to it(That doesn't show an extracted not…
  • sigh i wish there was something else i could useThere are a number of PDF viewer alternatives. Foxit Reader and PDFXChange Viewer are some of the more popular free ones.
  • See https://www.dropbox.com/s/qi0dhh4dwgwnc59/zotfile-extracted.png You will notice a note attachment above the PDF. That's what it should look like. If you're not getting that even after successfully extracting the data (you would get a popup at t…
  • Maybe Sean Takats can sway them the other way. Considering that Zotero and Omeka are developed at CHNM, the lack of interoperability is ridiculous. (edit: I'm also referring to how long it took Omeka to update their Zotero plugin) It's really in Ome…
  • We do this for a number of journals (mostly because it's in the metadata presented on the site), but apparently not for Hindawi. So what format should this be in? I think e is the most common way to present electronic publications.
  • Use the one from opera.com. That is the official connector. Not sure why there's no link to it on the zotero download page though.
  • Article ID should probably be included as the page then. Maybe e843781 or id843781 or just 843781?
  • If extraction was successful, they should appear as notes next to your PDF.
  • I'll have to get back to you when I get on my Ubuntu machine. Probably some time later today.
  • Can you see the PDF in Zotero? Is it attached to a Zotero item? If so (to both), just right-click the PDF and select "Extract Annotations" (under "Manage Attachments" I believe). If you right-click the PDF, and you see an option to "Retrieve Metada…
  • Deleting the file should help, but that's certainly not a great solution (I assume you want the file). You can open that file outside of Zotero, right? Have you tried restarting your computer? Ubuntu 14.04, Zotero 4.0.19I don't think it will help, b…
  • I have to frequently exchange documents with MS word users and have noticed that their edits tend to mess up the add-on inserted citations sometimes. It is safer to use the pasted citations.That's unfortunate, since you end up forfeiting much of the…
  • Is there any reason why you're not using the Zotero add-on for LibreOffice? https://www.zotero.org/support/word_processor_integration Copy-paste should certainly work though. It's working for me with Word on Windows 7. Can you try pasting it into s…
  • I added a (temporary) workaround for this. Update your translators via Preferences -> General -> Update now and see if it works.
  • Thanks. I can reproduce this. On a technical note, RSC embeds tags in the of the document instead of the , which is non-standard way of using them (at least the way they have it). We recently changed the behavior of embedded metadata translators …
  • See the last step on that page. We need more info
  • Go through the steps here: https://www.zotero.org/support/troubleshooting_translator_issues
  • Is the "out of memory" error connected to the size of the whole library or just to the collection you are exporting? Should be affected by the current collection only, though Dan would be able to say for sure. At least that's the only way you would …
  • (Even if you didn't copy items to other collections yourself, they might still exist in multiple collections if some of the items have already been merged. You could just re-merge them afterwards, since that's what you will be doing anyway)
  • Yes, I've got 29 collections. I'll try exporting a single collection.If you succeed to export all collections, don't forget to also export "Unfiled Items" (special collection just above Trash). Select it (hopefully that doesn't take forever), then s…
  • Also, are the items sorted into collections? You can export them one collection at a time (top level collections should be ok depending on how many items you have in each). You'll just have multiple RDF files, but you should be able to get your coll…
  • Reset your translators via Preferences -> Advanced -> Files and Folders -> Reset Translators... Then restart Zotero. Go to Preferences -> General -> click Update Now. Try exporting again. If it doesn't work, submit a Report ID https:…
  • Good point. Edited instructions to perform reset with an empty library. No need to worry about resetting it in the future if you don't want to sync files at this point.
  • OK, here's my take on what you should do (let Dan/adamsmith OK this before you proceed). 1. Export your library as Zotero RDF without notes or file attachments. 2. Close Zotero. 3. Back up your current Zotero library: https://www.zotero.org/suppo…
  • @jenlnorvell, another question... do you need the tags/keywords that come with these items from ProQuest?Could you answer this as well? We could do some pre-processing to delete tags if you don't need them, which would speed things up a lot.
  • Well, resetting from the server wipes out the whole local database. But resetting to the server only clears the remote personal library. (If you've made unsynced local group changes it can cause some conflicts with group libraries due to the way it …
  • @jenlnorvell, another question... do you need the tags/keywords that come with these items from ProQuest? About RDF: have you been syncing your computer? That would make this harder. The reason admasmith is saying this, is because deleting the libra…
  • (that should be "or, if you're into editing javascript files"...)well, I think editing that single line in the translator is far easier than coming up with a reliable regexp that will remove all (multiline) notes from a large file. edit: FWIW, using…
  • That's too bad. I guess editing RIS is the only way to go (or, if you're into editing RIS files, then it would probably be easier to just edit the translator. You'd only have to change N1:"notes" to N1:"__ignore" on line 185)
