You can share your screenshot on a platform such as https://postimages.org/ and post the link here.

An explanatory note to report what you have found out yourself can be informative to others - I think deleting one's post would reduce that potential value. So... no apologies required, in my opinion :-)

Thanks!

I see our documentation might be missing a few sentences for users before it jumps into development information... thanks for the report, such feedback is always useful. In order to actually perform the recognition using the plugin, you need to rig…

Should I create a pull request?

1) 978-3-8252-1512-5 is exactly the same as 3-8252-1512-1, using the 13-digits convention instead of the 10-digits convention. Both are often listed on library records, so I suppose Zotero is picking up the first one listed on the record it found. N…

I think the OP is assuming that upgrading to 32-bit v7 is a necessary step - it isn't, right?
-
The Zotero OCR documentation is intended to be sufficient. If it isn't (which is always possible), feedback is of course welcome.

The MacOS Preview application, in modern MacOS versions, recognizes text on the fly for PDFs that don't have an actual text layer (i.e. the pages are just pictures), as well as as for pure image files (jpg, png, and so on). You can copy and paste th…

It's fairly easy to distinguish a DOI in a string of text automatically: it is constructed with a precise structure, and a computer can use that with sufficient confidence. That's why it works. And yes, there are commitments beyond just paying a fe…

LLM: right, I should have thought of that!

In order to mint a DOI, a publisher (private or public, one-person or multinational corporation) must: 1) have a working contract with Crossref, Datacite, or possibly another DOI registration organization - which involves some kind of payment; 2) p…

The easiest way to extract a copy of your collection tree is to capture a screenshot. If you are using a Mac with a recent version of MacOS, the Preview application will recognize the text more or less automatically. On other systems, some PDF viewe…

"Thesis", for sure. The Type field can be used to be more specific if necessary.

"more often than not PDFs and other attachments are dragged into Zotero from the filesystem" I'd like to know what evidence exists to support this statement, which appears for the 2nd time in this thread. I'm not saying it never happens (I for one …

I'm a member of the zotero-ocr team, I'll be happy to help. Can you follow the instructions as exactly as possible, in sequence, and report the exact point where things become unclear for you?

It's OK if you don't remember the exact motivation for your first post. But what is your actual need today? That information would be very useful, without it I find it difficult to provide a constructive answer - something more helpful than "well, s…

It sounds like you are using collections to organize references in your Zotero library (a completely valid way to work, obviously). However, if this assumption is correct, I want to point out that Zotero collections do not behave like directories in…
-
What kind of scraping are you talking about? It feels like you are very close to writing your own import translator :-)
-
This is an interesting question and I think I see where the clash is happening in general, but I am not sure how Zotero is involved in the story. Can you describe your workflow, maybe as a list of steps?
-
They are mapped to Publisher. Publication (for item types that use it) is a kind of document container (a book for book sections, a journal for articles, etc. ), not an organization.
-
Is this what you mean? https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/collections_containing_an_item If yes, it already works for attachments without parent items (I have just tested it myself).
-
You would usually avoid this issue using the standard input method (search for the book in the desired library catalog and capture metadata using the browser plugin) instead of the ISBN look-up, but the dedicated import translator is still work in p…

Yes, that's what I meant - but not the result I was hoping for. Did you actually set up syncing on your local machine, before you had to send your machine to the repair center? Maybe with a different username? If not, maybe you had a personal back-u…

Can you see your data at https://www.zotero.org/nche0054/library ? If yes, if your drive was indeed wiped out, you need to enter your username and password in Zotero to get your online data back into your local library https://www.zotero.org/suppor…

This is probably determined by the citation style. Which one are you using in your document? It can also be useful to post a screenshot of the reference as it appears in Zotero itself: the authors might not be recorded optimally.

Sorry @bostonblack, I hadn't read your previous message - thanks for pointing it out. I have kind of the same numbers, so basically no problem in comparison to a few posts of this thread that report 4 to 21 GB. Also memory seems to be properly rele…

The point is not that disabling plugins is a solution (indeed it isn't), it's a way to look for a possible cause. If the problem doesn't happen when the plugins are disabled, the cause is in one or more plugins, and by selectively activating one af…
