I would also expect a dialog box to popup at one of these stages, similar to the RTF scan dialog box for unmatched references. Maybe the ODT scanner is just leaving placeholder citations in the document and then failing to match them to the library later? I would expect Zotero to link most of the scannable citations to library entries either during the ODT scan or when it first looks through the post-scanned document interactively via the LibreOffice plugin. I am assuming that the ODT scanner is able to lookup references in the library based on the author, title and year, like the RTF scanner, but I may be wrong about this. (b) Once Zotero notices there are citations in the document, it still doesn't find them in the library, even though they are there. But sometimes this causes LibreOffice to crash instead (and then, at least on a Mac, you also have to force Zotero to quit in order to get the plugin working again). If you choose ReferenceMarks then Bookmarks in various orders, you can eventually get the document scanning process to begin. (a) Zotero doesn't recognize the citations as citations at all if you choose the "Bookmarks" option in the "Refresh" or "Document Preferences" dialog box. At this point, every citation in your document will be converted to, but the rest is the same (you are prompted for a substitute, and that is applied to every citation in the document). Make sure Format Using: ReferenceMarks is selected, then click OK. Click the "Set Document Preferences" button on the Zotero toolbar in LibreOffice.
These use an unusual citation format (author, title and date, with no enclosing parentheses), but otherwise are fairly normal Zotero citations.Ħ. Note that the citations should now appear as Reference Marks (gray text). Open the output file from the previous step in LibreOffice. odt file as the Input File and choose an appropriate location for the Output File.ĥ. Choose "ODF (to citations)" as the File type. In Zotero, choose RTF/ODF scan from the gear popup button. Open the document in LibreOffice and save it as an "ODF Text Document (.odt)".Ĥ. (For the later steps, it may be worthwhile to convert the field codes to plain text at this point, but I haven't found that this makes a difference.) Save your document as a. This should create citations that are still field codes (gray when you click on them) but look a little like temporary Endnote citations (surrounded with curly brackets), with some extra vertical bars as well.
In Microsoft Word, reformat your citations using the Endnote plugin with the "Zotero ODT Scan" style defined above. If you are also offered a "Citation - Author (Year)" option (I think this appeared sometime between Endnote X2 and Endnote X6), it could look like this:Īlso set the Multiple Citation Separator to this (two curly braces):Ģ.
When creating this output style, the important elements are under Citations -> Templates. Save it as something like "Zotero ODT Scan". In Endnote, create a custom output style that looks like the scannable citation markers used by Zotero's ODT scanner ( ). (This would be easier if Zotero offered a "docx scan" feature or if the Word plugin could convert temporary/scannable citations into real Zotero citations.)ġ. But if you have a lot of text with simple citations, it may be worthwhile. I'm also not sure whether this process will preserve page numbers or notes in your citations. This will interfere with a lot of formatting. doc format), LibreOffice (.odt format), then back to. The document will make a round-trip between Word (.docx or. Note that this process requires that you have Microsoft Word and LibreOffice installed, and that Endnote is installed and working with MS Word, and that Zotero is installed and working with both Word and LibreOffice. But I wanted to mention the steps here in case anyone can push this further.
Convert endnote to zotero in word manual#
Unfortunately, possibly due to a Zotero bug, the steps below don't really work, so I would recommend continuing with the manual way for now.
Convert endnote to zotero in word series#
I would prefer to have an automated way to do this, so I developed the following series of steps. The consensus seems to be that the best way to do this is to find each Endnote citation, manually insert an equivalent Zotero citation, and delete the Endnote one. To do this, I need to convert my Endnote citations in each document into Zotero citations. I have imported my Endnote library into Zotero, and would now like to continue editing these documents. I have some documents written in Microsoft Word (.docx format), which use Endnote citations.
