Get DOI from pdf
Posted: Fri Sep 23, 2022 3:43 am
- The current Get DOI menu appears to use the title of the article to search it in the Crossref database to get the DOI. I personally rarely get results with this menu. Most of the time, it gets no results.
- I know BE has an internal system to get DOIs from the first few pages of a pdf file.
I was thinking if there is a way to make the internal system (the one that gets DOIs from the pdf) available to the user by combining it with the "Get DOI" command.
Get DOI would have two submenus:
(a) from Crossref (Internet)
(b) from pdf (local)
This is useful to copy the DOI numbers from the pdf to the reference. The "Get DOI from pdf" would scan the first few pages of the pdf, and copy the DOI (if there is any) to the DOI field.
