PDFs won't download for some sites - notably EBSCO and Proquest - when you're both using a proxy and using Zotero Standalone.

I'll try to give a better explanation of what I'm doing: I exported 386 ProQuest documents as an .xml file. I want to import these into Filemaker, so I've created a style sheet.

Citation imports but not the PDF (the import pop-up has a red "x" with EBSCO full text next to it). The PDF import dosen't work with other providers either (ProQuest, SAGE, etc). Any help would be g

Note that if you access sciencedirect through a proxy and use Standalone with a Connector, Zotero won't be able to get PDFs for some sites (including sciencedirect and proquest)

Zotero is not able to get PDFs for some sites when you're using connectors (i.e. Chrome or Safari) and going through a proxy, that includes Proquest, EBSCO, and sciencedirect.

I think ProQuest sometimes requests that a captcha is entered before a PDF can be downloaded. There's not much we can do about this. If PDF downloads start to fail, try accessing the PDF manually and

I am trying to add a dissertation from ProQuest. It seems the PDF download fails. I get this error. When I restart Firefox, it cannot find the PDF.

Though I should note that sometimes ProQuest asks you to enter a captcha to access the PDF (when you click on the PDF link), in which case, Zotero will not be able to attach the PDF. Once you enter th

When using the proquest translator on their digital dissertations, the attached PDF is always a 24 page "preview" PDF, even when I have access to the entire text. Is this intended behavior? Avram, thi

Is it possible that the translator is failing on the search results because Proquest won't let me pull that much information from their site all at once?

I'm using the Chrome extension (on a Mac) with Proquest. The "Saving to..." box in the lower right of the screen appears as normal on when using the extension on this site, however after 15 seconds or

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm going to try the Scopus translation again (per my previous post) this afternoon because that's more pressing for me now that Proquest is working for me. If Scopus doesn'

If you're interested, it'd be a good idea to troubleshoot the ProQuest translator issue in a separate thread. The RIS import - while maybe a little faster - will likely be a second best solution, cre
