Nisus and Zotero
Posted: 2020-12-10 05:29:25
Is anyone here using Zotero with Nisus Writer Pro?
Zotero works well in MS Word, LibreOffice and GoogleDocs; and documents saved in RTF and ODF formats are to be scanned in order to create citations and a bibliography, much the same as in Bookends and Nisus.
That's a big shame. It's actually not difficult to support loading Unicode text with special characters from RTF files. In fact, I'd say it's much easier than supporting all of the various old legacy text encodings that are part of the official RTF specification.Þorvarður wrote: ↑2021-11-01 12:25:49 The problem with Zotero is, however, that if you have an author whose name contains an umlaut or a diacritic, Zotero will fail to execute the RTF Scan command, thus making it impossible to create a bibliography.
The problem is well known among Zotero developers, but they are not interested in fixing it or are unable to do it.
