Yep, rollback to zotero 5.0.55 gets RTF/ODF scan working again for me. Much appreciated.
-
OK thanks for quick response: will try rolloing back zotero now...

ajlyon points out: "Also note that you can already start working with the new CSL processor in the trunk XPI builds of Zotero, just be sure to not use it with vital data."Yes, I should have mentioned that. It's a bit more "bleeding edge" than I wan…

Update: so ... I eventually got around to hacking a little bit more on this. I've done a very crude, clunky, "proof-of-concept" implementation. This works only for openoffice.org and is not properly integrated anyway (uses an external, standalone,…

For what it is worth: I believe I have encountered the same problem. In my case I have three papers by a single author; two in 1999, one in 2002. I'm using the harvard1 style. The two 1999 papers were not being disambiguated. After a lot of testing …

Hi - Just "pinging" this issue again. Dan previously said "Yes, the key-based URI is intended to resolve to the item's page—it just doesn't yet"; as far as I can see that is still the situation (i.e., these embedded citation URI's still don't resolv…

Dan asks: Were you actually getting it every time before? Yes: every single action that I tested, that involved either pdfinfo or pdftotext, caused a hang. It was very consistent. As I mentioned, I first suspected some issue specific to the particu…

Just another datapoint: Running zotero 2.0.3, firefox 3.5.9 on ubuntu 9.10 (karmic); pdfinfo and pdftext are 3.02pl1. I had this (or at least a similar) problem: when I added a PDF file to zotero it (firefox+zotero) hung with the "Saving item..." …

Hi zdemery - Yep, it will be very nice if/when this is all implemented. Unfortunately, the bad news is that I think I was a little over-optimistic in my earlier assessment. I had assumed that when zotero delivers a formatted bibliography to the op…

Dan asks: "What's the downside of embedded metadata?", so, to be clear, I don't think there is any downside to it at all; I just wanted to check that it wasn't a question of removing the linkage once metadata is embedded, but that is now clear.
-
Hi Dan - Thanks for that response. You wrote that "... full embedded metadata is likely a better (decentralized) solution, assuming the technical hurdles with embedding in the various applications and document formats and modes can be overcome." An…

A long time ago, Sybille wrote here: In OpenOffice.org Writer, which I use, it is possible to bind the Zotero insert citation macro to a key press. For example, I'm using F4, and it works just fine. Could you associate the macro you're using with a …

OK, Dan, Sean - thanks, I get it now (doh!). (I could try to explain why that wasn't the first thing I did ... but it would still sound silly!)
-
Sean writes: "any Zotero client already can import items from a group library (or public personal library) page" ... which sounds like exactly what I am asking, but I can't see how to do this, so I guess I am missing something. So, just acting as …

OK, so I guess it's a bit lame to reply to my own message ... but I just want to log the limited further research I've done... I have established that it is definitely possible to manually add internal hyperlinks linking citations to corresponding …
-
I am also interested in any ways of achieving these effects automatically. In the case of hyperlinking from references to external target resources (via URLs from the database) I would also ideally like the option to not expose this URL, but be able…
