From: Rob on 30 Apr 2010 03:52 Has anyone had any luck with a references/citation manager? I need something to catalogue masses of PDF files, have a decent stab at extracting the metadata, and have the ability to export/work within a word processor, preferably Word for compatibility reasons. And, and this seems to be the killer, work using the Harvard system. Papers would have been good if it wasn't for this. Thanks, Rob

The Harvard system is completely disgusting, but can't Endnote do most of what you want to do? Daniele

Endnote is fairly disgusting, maybe try Bookends. <http://www.sonnysoftware.com/bookends/bookends.html> Stuart -- cut that out to reply
