Re: move pdf between refs

I have noticed that I have quite a few that have attached to the wrong reference too. I am opening the pdf, and saving it to my bookends watch folder as a new name and deleting the wrong attachment. I wonder whether it would be possible to add a dropdown on pdf's that would give the option to add to...

Searching for references without attachments

I tried to search whether anyone has asked this before, but the search feature didn't like my terms. I have a about 10% of my library that does not have an attachment. I would like to search for the pdf's for those references. I was thinking I would create a smart group for the references that don't...

Automatic import and autocomplete from watch folder

I have probably changed a setting causing this, but am unsure what I might have done. When I drag a document into my watch folder, it is now creating two identical references, but one has the file attached and the other does not. How do I make Bookends stop adding the additional reference? Thank you...

Re: APA 6th journal title formatting

Those are journal databases. I do not see an existing glossary that has education journals. I started making a new glossary. Is there a way to import these fields rather than typing them individually?

Re: Template for a Report

In case you do ever decide to tackle a reports format.... Thank you for drawing my attention to journal glossaries in the other thread. Now that I am looking at the journal glossary, it seems that organizations would be useful staying in the journal field. This way the organization abbreviation can ...

Re: Template for a Report

Some APA sites tell you to ignore authors and site by the organization while other sites say to cite by the authors. I am not sure which is most correct, but I was trying to set it up so that I could easily change the format if I am ever told to do it the alternative way. Specifically, my issue aris...

Re: APA 6th journal title formatting

Oh wow! Thank you for pointing that out! This will be very beneficial. Looks like you thought of all the components to journal titles! I cannot get over how useful this software is. I wish I had asked about this sooner. On that note, is there a quick way to create a journal glossary? I typically use...

Re: APA 6th journal title formatting

My issue is not the title of the article, but the title of the journal. Can the journal title settings be changed here?

Re: Template for a Report

I know this hasn't come up recently, but a report type would be nice. I have sited educational reports regularly in APA 6th format for years. I finally created this type based on the instructions below just a few minutes ago. It will save me some time, but is not perfect. I had issues with the organ...

APA 6th journal title formatting

I apologize if this has been covered on another feed. I could not find anything addressing journal titles. I have been using bookends for several years now and almost always need APA 6th edition formating. One thing that drives me crazy is journal title capitalization. Frequently, journal titles are...
