You need to take specific steps to save a document with Zotero references to a different format: https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/moving_documents_between_word_processors

Progress :-) Now does this book cause problems if you add it by identifier (the original question)? It's working for me.
-
When reporting problems with metadata capture, always provide a link to the page where the problem happens.
-
"Interestingly, the data pulled over did not include the publisher or ISBN": again, please be more specific so that others can reproduce your problem. What book? From what exact page?
-
I agree that web pages where one can find books are not always the best metadata source (typically: library catalogs yes, major booksellers often yes, publisher websites sometimes, blogs and other review pages not so much), and when they're not it t…

I think it's always worth remembering that the preferred entry method is the browser connector https://www.zotero.org/support/adding_items_to_zotero#via_your_web_browser This being said, can you give a few specific examples? "add by identifier" inc…
-
If the documents are available or referenced on suitable platforms (document repositories, maybe library catalogues), get the metadata from there using the browser connector. Whenever it's possible, it's the best method - even for scientific PDFs it…

Great! Thanks for the explanation.

Note that you wrote only about Firefox specifically, not about mainstream browsers, so my answer was perhaps not 100% aligned with your need. There's no official information about Zen or many other non-mainstream browsers, but in this forum there is…
-
Zenodo certainly supports other browsers than Firefox already, and there have been various reports on this forum from people who use it with Zen (which apparently accepts Firefox plugins). For example: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/48…

Thanks for the pointer! The translation teams will be happy to contribute when the time comes.
-
After a closer look at the Zotero source code, the fetch_xulrunner script actually uses these strings to modify some Firefox localization files (For the Mac version it would act on localization/en-US/toolkit/about/aboutAddons.ftl contained in Firefo…
-
Thanks, these details will be useful for the Zotero staff. As a fellow user, I wanted to put the most frequent problem out of the way.

Who is the owner of the 'Publis réseau RDI 2020-2025' group? The quota depends strictly on that person's plan, not the other group members.
-
Indeed these strings are apparently not in the Zotero internationalization files. If I understand correctly, the Zotero build process collects some Firefox files and modifies them. I can find "Manage Your Plugins" hard-coded in the app/scripts/fetch…

Which language is missing these translations?

Something like this? https://github.com/windingwind/zotero-pdf-translate

Préférences / Générales / Gestion des fichiers (https://docs.zotero-fr.org/general/) Le screenshot est encore basé sur Zotero 6 donc votre affichage sera légèrement différent.

I and many others understand the level of frustration and stress that writing one's PhD thesis can cause. We've been there, and I'm sure we all wish you a complete success with it. But... a hard time finding answers? The answer to this question and …

If you were using linked files, you might need to change their base directory https://www.zotero.org/support/preferences/advanced#linked_attachment_base_directory
-
I'm not sure there is a simple mechanism for that but people with a deeper knowledge might know better. However: wouldn't it be easier for your web application to expose metadata in a generally recognized format such as COinS? There would be nothing…
-
Your issue isn't 100% clear, can you provide more details? See https://www.zotero.org/support/reporting_problems for the best way to describe your problem.
-
I have just tested Zotero's import translator for one book in my LT collection, it's actually working nicely with the embedded COinS metadata. However I don't see a multiple import while viewing my collection, so it can take some time to go over doz…

Librarything's MARC export ignores a lot of information in my experience, so I wouldn't rely on that. You can enter many books by ISBN, see https://www.zotero.org/support/adding_items_to_zotero#add_item_by_identifier . Just be aware that in some cas…
-
In my opinion, Librarything (which I like for many other reasons) is pretty bad at exporting. Their import from Amazon or library catalogues is good, but the other options usually involve some loss of information. There is no 100% reliable app to c…
-
I agree about the role of plugins, but calling false duplicates a bug is too strong in my opinion. It is just not possible to detect duplicate bibliographic records with 100% accuracy. So here it has apparently been a design choice to prefer false p…
-
Here's the documentation of Zotero's duplicate detection feature, as you will see it it very simple (perhaps too simple): https://www.zotero.org/support/duplicate_detection I think we all agree that it could be improved and that a way to mark false…

I suspect your machine management system is re-installing the version approved by your IT staff. You should ask them.

If you need to cite the content, it is probably better to cite the original articles so that a reader can locate them. Unless the offprint is more readily available?
