Zotero functions in word processors

Add a new citation or edit an existing citation in your document at the cursor location

Insert a bibliography at the cursor location or edit an existing bibliography

Opens the Document Preferences window to select or change the citation style.

Refresh all citations and the bibliography, updating any item metadata that has changed in your Zotero library.

Remove Zotero field codes from the document. Field codes allow Zotero to generate your references in your chosen style within your document.

Removing field codes changes the references in a document to plain text and prevents any further automatic updates of the citations and bibliographies. This is irreversible. Make sure to save a working copy of your document before you unlink citations.
