Zotero plugin for KOffice

Post Sat Oct 17, 2009 4:20 pm

I have started to experiment with KOffice, particularly KWord, on Kubuntu 9.10 beta (although I have difficulties using it because the text fonts look so awful, even on my 1680 x 1050...), and I think it has great potential. I would love to use it instead of OpenOffice. However, I use Zotero (www.zotero.org) extensively for my writing and it only has plugins (to enable me to cite references and construct a bibliography) for OpenOffice and Word. I encourage the KWord team to give some thought to a plugin. Zotero is a tool that is becoming increasingly popular, and a plugin would bring new users to KWord. I have made a similar request on the Zotero Forum (http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/942 ... for-kword/).

Thanks for the great work, Martin

Hey, thanks for the kind words :)

Personally I'd love to have a Zotero plugin for KOffice. Would likely not be too hard to create and I definitely see the advantages. Two open projects would strengthen each other.

The core team does have a pretty big TODO list so I hope someone else steps up and gets this plugin going so it happens this century ;)

Cheers!

Many thanks - It's very good to read this! On the Zotero Forum bdarcus pointed me to http://community.muohio.edu/blogs/darcusb/archives/2009/03/01/the-babel-of-citations, where I think you have also commented.
