188BET靠谱吗RTF/ODF Scan for Zotero

charlespetersen

How large a bounty do I need to offer to get this fixed in the near term?Maybe we could raise a small stipend to keep this plugin up-to-date?I'm not going to be able to turn in my dissertation without it.

dstillman

I've submitted a patch188BET靠谱吗that fixes the plugin on Zotero 5.0.78 and up. @fbennettwill need to review and release.

rbs_landau

Thanks heaps!

gazagoal

Came to share a quick and dirty fix (updating deprecated XPCOM methods) but saw that the moderator already did a better one.Thanks for the great work!

dstillman

The patch has been merged and pushed out, so this should work again now in 2.0.43.(ODF Scan is now a separate menu option, since the previous version was breaking the built-in RTF Scan functionality.)

tunick

In macOS Catalina there is no ODF scan anymore.188BET靠谱吗I have Zotero 5.0.80 and ODF Scan 2.0.43.

dstillman

@tunick: Make sure you're looking for a separate "ODF Scan" option below "RTF Scan" in the Tools menu.It's no longer in the same dialog.If you're not seeing it, provide a Report ID.

tunick

Nope, there is no ODF Scan option.

188BET靠谱吗Have you tried uninstalling, restarting Zotero, and reinstalling the extension?

188BET靠谱吗Does anybody know how to make ZotHero (the plugin for using Zotero via Alfred) use scannable cites?Surely I'm not the first to think this!The two seem like they're made for each other!

Here's all you'd need to do to insert a scannable cite:

1.Press your keyboard shortcut to bring up the Alfred box.
2.Type "zot [start typing the name of source you want to cite]" and press Command+Return.This will copy that item's scannable cite to your clipboard.
3.Command+V to paste.

So fast and simple!

188BET靠谱吗The problem I'm encountering is that ZotHero uses Zotero's citation styles, but scannable cites are an export style.Very frustrating!

Has anybody figured this out?Or does anybody have any ideas?

squarebottle

I believe I figured it out, in case I was wondering.It's not hard.Here's what you need to do:

1.Go here: 188BET靠谱吗//www.brodersterzo.com/styles?q=RTF
2.188BET靠谱吗Click RTF scan and add it to your Zotero.
3.Press your keyboard shortcut to bring up the Alfred box.
4.Type "zotconf" and press return.
5.Select Default style.
6.Select RTF scan.

Henceforth, no matter what app you are using, just do the three steps from my previous post to quickly insert a scannable cite.Enjoy.

tunick

@dstillmanThank you!I've just reinstalled and it's working now!

tunick

It's disappeared again!There is no ODF scan menu anymore!

tunick

I've just reinstalled it and it works again!

Hi.188BET靠谱吗Just having an issue with the 'scannable cite' translator not showing up as an option in the export options in zotero.188BET靠谱吗I'm on linux, with zotero 5.0.81.This is a fresh install of the plugin, with the latest version from the github.

Anyone have any ideas?

You could try downloading the file from here:
188BET靠谱吗https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Juris-M/zotero-odf-scan-plugin/master/resource/translators/Scannable Cite.js

188BET靠谱吗(right-click --> save link as), put it in your Zotero translator folder in the data directory ( 188BET靠谱吗//www.brodersterzo.com/support/zotero_data188BET靠谱吗) and restart Zotero, see if that works:

octofish

Thanks adamsmith.That did the trick.I had already tried that actually, but it was something to do with getting confused about data dirs I think.

188BET靠谱吗On my arch linux system there is a system wide dir /usr/lib/zotero, and two user specific dirs ~/.zotero and ~/Zotero.I had tried putting it in the first two, but didn't know the last one existed.

Thanks.

@adamsmith188BET靠谱吗, I have the same problem ('scannable cite' translator not showing up as an option in the export options in zotero.Using windows 10).

Could you provide more detailed instructions on the "downloading the file from here" ( 188BET靠谱吗https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Juris-M/zotero-odf-scan-plugin/master/resource/translators/ScannableCite.js)?Clicking the link lead to script which cannot be simply "downloaded".

When you right "right click", where exactly should i right click?

Thanks

octofish

If you're getting the code for "Scannable Cite.js" come up literally in the browser window, you can just "Save Page as..." or whatever the equivalent option is in your browser and save it under the filename "Scannable Cite.js".

188BET靠谱吗That file then needs to go into the "translators" directory in the Zotero data directory as per 188BET靠谱吗//www.brodersterzo.com/support/zotero_data.

Worked for me.

Loving the plugin by the way.My scrivener workflow is now sorted.

adamsmith

I meant right-click on the link I provided, but octofish's option to just save the code page that opens works, too.

金博宝世界杯体育赛事I noticed the following, using LibreOffice on Windows 10, without groups.

With the default settings, ODF Scan works properly with:
{ | Smith, (2012) | | |zu:0:WQVBH98K}

188BET靠谱吗Setting "extensions.zotero.translators.ODFScan.useZoteroSelect" to "true", I get
188BET靠谱吗{ | Smith, (2012) | | |zotero://select/items/1_WQVBH98K},
which does not produce an output file.Debug output logging shows:
188BET靠谱吗ERROR (rtf-odf-scan-for-zotero): Error: Group with libraryID 1 does not exist.

Manually changing the libraryID to "0", i.e.,
188BET靠谱吗{ | Smith, (2012) | | |zotero://select/items/0_WQVBH98K},
produces a correct output file.

This might provide a fix for issue #29 on github:

Hello.188BET靠谱吗I have recently tried the Zotero RTF and ODF scan plug-in.188BET靠谱吗I have created a very long document on Scrivener while writing citations in the standard format suggested in the Zotero RTF plug-in (e.g., Reyes, 2010!Reyes et al., 2010!Reyes & Santos, 2010).I then exported the document to rtf.For my citations to be recognised, I ran an RTF scan, however, of the hundreds citations in my document only a small percentage returned results and placed in the bibliography.I read that the ODF scan is much more robust but i knew i had to re-format my citations.How do i do this, how do I generate citations in the correct format so that an ODF scan will recognise them?

188BET靠谱吗Scrivener while writing citations in the standard format suggested in the Zotero RTF plug-in (e.g., Reyes, 2010!Reyes et al., 2010!Reyes & Santos, 2010)

Let's start with this -- where is this from?RTF Scan should use curly brackets, not regular ones: 188BET靠谱吗//www.brodersterzo.com/support/rtf_scan

188BET靠谱吗ODF scan requires you to install the add-on and the export Scannable Cite from Zotero as described on 188BET靠谱吗https://zotero-odf-scan.github.io/zotero-odf-scan/-- but that'd be a lot of work retroactively, so maybe try to fix RTF Scan first.

Mjira

Thank you adamsmith, yes I have used curly brackets.I will re-run just in case there was a glitch with the first RTF scan, knowing now that doing via ODF scan will require more work.Thank you so much for the swift answer!!

Hi hope someone can help me.188BET靠谱吗I've been using the workaround of going back to an old Zotero version (5.0.76) and everything was working fine.

I've just done a Catalina update (10.15.3) and have noticed that scan no longer works.I have ODF and RTF as separate menu options (think it was RTF/ODF before).

When I go to ODF when I try the button to select an input file it clicks but nothing happens.

Any ideas?Not sure if the Catalina update was just coincidence when I noticed and tried to use it.

Any workaround suggestions would be greatly appreciated.


Cheers

Alex

@alexferdi188BET靠谱吗: Check Tools → Add-ons in Zotero and make sure you're running the latest version of the ODF-Scan plugin — currently 2.0.43.188BET靠谱吗What you're describing would happen if you try to use an older version in Zotero 5.0.78 and up.

alexferdi

@dstillman188BET靠谱吗: I was told I needed to keep Zotero at 5.0.77 or below (So I am running 5.0.76) to keep the old way of archiving or something.

I've updated to that plugin version but it doesn't work.

Do I need to update to 5.0.78?Will that not cause issues?

adamsmith

could you specify who told you that?188BET靠谱吗You should generally avoid using old Zotero versions and there's very rarely a reason to.

Hello,

188BET靠谱吗I have Zotero 5.0.84, ODF Scan for Zotero 2.0.43, Mac OS Catalina 10.15.3.
My end goal is to convert a Microsoft Word Document to be useable in Scrivener with the citation markers that I can then convert back to normal in-text citations.188BET靠谱吗I have installed Libre Office and ODF Scan for Zotero 2.0.43.
I also have the problem that I only see "RTF Scan" and "ODF Scan" separately.The ODF Scan to citations seems to work.But I cannot get the reverse conversion to work (to markers) - at least nothing seems to change - when I save my Word document as ODT (with bookmarks) and then use the "to markers" conversion with the ODF Scan option...I'm not sure if I'm following the right procedure and would be happy about any tips.Thank you!
