#Zotero firefox pdf
If Zotero cannot get metadata, you'll have to use another method to get the citation information, and then just associate the PDF with the citation.ĥ.
Zotero will search Google Scholar for the citation information for your article and create a parent entry in your Zotero library for it. Right-click on the PDF and select Retrieve Metadata for PDF. Drag the PDF files to the middle window of your Zotero library (the one with the list of items), and drop it there. If you have a PDF of an article already stored in a file on your computer, set up your screen so that your Zotero library is open, but you can see your stored PDF on your computer, too. To do this, open Zotero while you are on the page, and click the "Create New Item From Current Page" button, toward the top middle of the Zotero window.Ĥ. Zotero will automatically save a copy of the page. If you are on a web page that does not produce a Zotero icon next to the URL, you can still produce a Zotero record from that page, though you will probably have to fill in some of the information (author, date, etc.) yourself. If you have an ISBN for a book, or one of a few other standard numbers, you can look up a record for that book or article using the wand button in Zotero.ģ. If the icon looks like a folder, Zotero is detecting multiple items on the page, and it will ask you which ones you want to add.Ģ.
Hover over the icon to make sure it is a Zotero icon and not some other Firefox thing. If you're looking at a journal article, the icon will look like a sheet of paper, etc. If you're looking at a book record, the icon will look like a blue book. Look for the icon Zotero produces at the top of your page, next to the URL.
