Zotero 1.5 and OpenOffice 3.0: Getting it all to Work

Posted by Tommy on 10/25/08 • Categorized as Software

Those of you who have upgrade to Zotero 1.5 (still in Beta) and/or OpenOffice 3.0 may have noticed some problems with integration. Zotero has a plugin for OpenOffice and MS Word that integrates your Bibliography with your documents, but the default plugin does not work with OpenOffice.

That problem has been fixed: download the new (patched) version from here. This new version will work with all versions of Zotero and OpenOffice. The technically-inclined can read about the details here.

This patched plugin is a temporary fix, a prelude to a fully rewritten plugin (which will be a serious upgrade) due out soon. Read the technical details about the future of OpenOffice and Zotero integration here.

Stay tuned; I’ll keep you posted!
