So at this point it doesn't sound like they're containing any Zotero-linked citations at all. The most common reason that occurs is if they're saved in an incompatible file format (.odt or .rtf) or if

Another discouraging factor is that the internal code of Google Docs could change at any time. With software as a service, there is no way to go back to the old version if the provider decides it (and

I have a collaborative group who wish to use Google Docs as a central repository and presumably for collaborative editing sessions. However, editing a WORD doc in Google Docs strips the citation codes

It's been a long time since I've used a desktop word processor - everything I do is in the cloud (google docs, authorea, ...) which is why I wasn't aware of the features you listed. I'm trying to use

Also, it would be very helpful if someone could compile a spreadsheet for journals that use composite references (e.g. via a public Google Docs spreadsheet). Ideally it would list, per journal: the jo

I don't think you'll be able to take a snapshot of a google doc. The code running those is way too complicated for snapshots to work. You can, obviously, use google drive itself to save google docs, i

as .docx and yes, I believe I did open it in google docs in between. I take it that shouldn't be done?

happen to open it in any other software (e.g. google docs) in between?
