Import PDF files

EndNote can create references of PDF files. You can import individual PDFs or an entire folder of PDFs at once.

Windows:

1. From the top menu: File> Import> File (or Folder if you have a folder with PDF files)
2. Click on Choose and browse for the PDF file or folder with PDF files
3. Import Option must be PDF
4. Click Import.

Mac:

1. From the top menu: File> Import
2. Select the PDF file
3. Click the Options button in the bottom left
4. Import Options: Select PDF File or Folder
5. Import

For this to work, the PDF must have a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) number. The DOI number is a unique identifier found on most recent articles. If the article has a DOI number, the reference is automatically entered into the library. If the article does not contain a DOI number, EndNote creates a blank reference with the file name as the title. You must then enter all the details in the reference itself, see Register references manually.

File Attachments

This is an alternative to importing PDF files or Find Full Text. This feature also allows you to add other types of files such as Word, Power Point and Excel. The file will be placed in the File Attachments field and can be opened from there. You can attach multiple attachments to the same reference.

1. Select the reference
2. Right-click and select File Attachments> Attach File ...
   EndNote 20: In the View panel, select Attach File
3. Find the file
4. Click Open
