Pinpoint Metaviewer allows users to quickly extract file system metadata, OLE metadata contained in Microsoft Office Files and hash values all at the click of a mouse. See Adding Items to Zotero for more info.Extract metadata details from Microsoft Office Word, Excel, … The super fast speed and intuitive interface can bring you excellent photo viewing experience.
The item metadata will also often be higher quality. This saves several steps versus downloading the PDF manually and adding it to Zotero. Items and PDFs can be imported faster by using the Zotero Connector plugin in your browser from the article pages (not the PDFs) of publisher websites or most scholarly databases. Note: While this feature can greatly facilitate importing large existing libraries of PDFs, it is not the best way to add items to your library in general. While it can sometimes extract basic information (title, author) from other documents, you shouldn't expect that - anything can be distributed as a PDF, but that doesn’t mean there’s any standard metadata available for it. Zotero should retrieve high-quality metadata for most academic PDFs. If all else fails, you can click Manual Entry after selecting Create Parent Item and manually enter metadata for the item. If it can't, it will leave the PDF as a standalone attachment, allowing you to add a parent item another way - either by saving an item from the web and dragging the PDF on top of it or by right-clicking on the PDF, choosing Create Parent Item, and entering an identifier such as a DOI or ISBN. If Zotero can find a match for the PDF, it will create a full Zotero item with the available data and attach the PDF. (You can disable these automatic functions in the General pane of Zotero preferences.) By default, Zotero will automatically retrieve metadata for each PDF, create an appropriate parent item, and rename the associated file based on the metadata. To use this feature, simply drag your existing PDFs into your Zotero library or use the “Store Copy of File” or “Link to File” options from the add new item menu (green plus sign). Zotero makes it easy to import these PDFs and retrieve full bibliographic metadata (for searching, citing, indexing, and organizing), taking much of the pain out of switching. Many researchers already have a large collection of PDFs that they've previously organized manually. Users new to Zotero may find the prospect of importing all their data somewhat daunting.
