To Dan, Just saw your last post. If you are thinking of applying styles to Zotero notes, etc... too then option "[1] a style toolbar: Font; Rel. Size; Italics; [Bold]" etc. may be a better way to go ... No, let me change my mind here: I still think…

To Dan, Please don't make us all upgrade to Word 2007 ;) -- I have no idea if it can handle relative font sizes -- even if it does, there is something to be said for enabling a little backwards compatibility. "In addition to the familiarity for us…

[Warning: off topic] To Ian: from personal frustration experience: if you are using Firefox (2.x) you can hit "Add ..." then sign in and then press "Go back one page" (2x or so) in FF and okay the repost dialog and your comments will be posted. Any…

To Dan Stillman, Re: 1st Post: I would agree in part: greater coverage would be good but journals usually use a separate font for the main text and another for the special non-Western text (due to looks conventions -- for example: people a…

Hi bdracus, I'll try to be a bit more clear. The problem is with Unicode/font coverage and font size. It is currently not possible to output a sufficiently good-looking citation from Zotero to Word (and OOo too I assume) because: 1. E…

Addendum: The limited coverage, inflexibility and stylistically limited nature of contemporary fonts (Unicode and otherwise) is the real issue here. Nevertheless, a good font solution (as in the affordable availability of serif and non-serif fo…
