Product Description

From the Manufacturer

EndNote is the industry-standard software for organizing references and creating bibliographies. With EndNote X, we are creating a new standard for ease-of-use. And that has millions of students, researchers, writers, and librarians worldwide--jumping for joy!

Organize your PDF files with EndNote libraries

EndNote X introduces a new way to manage your PDF files. Now you can drag and drop a PDF file onto an EndNote record saving many steps and creating a link automatically. The PDF files are stored along with the EndNote references. And when you need to move your EndNote library between computers, the new compressed library option creates a single-file backup for easy transport.

View more--or less--detail as desired

EndNote X expands your library view with up to eight fields enabling you to sort columns quickly. A new icon identifies references containing links to PDF and other files. The reference edit window now includes a show/hide empty fields option to reduce scrolling for reference detail.

Other new features:

• Reference-type lists are now alphabetized for locating easily
• Four new reference types--Grant, Ancient Text, Dictionary, and Encyclopedia
• The "Electronic Source" references type is renamed to "Web Page"
• New--compressed library option creates a single-file backup for moving EndNote libraries between computers
• Store up to 45 links per reference in the "Link to PDF" field
• Convert existing PDF links to the new EndNote-relative link in one step
• Use the PDF icon in the EndNote toolbar to open the first linked file in the highlighted reference
• "Change Text" and "Change Fields" include a new option for tab and carriage returns used in phrases
• Search fields and words using "begins with" and "ends with"--replaces "Use Full Text Index" of previous versions
• "RTF Document Scan" is renamed to "Format Paper"
• Customize library and reference toolbars in Mac OS X version for quick access to frequently used commands
• Identify individual references easily in Spotlight Mac OS X Tiger search results--more descriptive details available

Search and collect references in new ways

EndNote X offers new search options including "begins with" and "ends with" for field and word searching. With continued suggestions from users, EndNote X includes new and updated files for searching online resources, importing references, and formatting bibliographies. You’ll find 800+ connections to online sources, 540+ import filters, and over 2,300 publishing styles!

3.0 out of 5 stars Seems to cause hangs sometimes, May 7, 2007

You may not want to put a lot of stock in this review, since my wife (not I) is the main user, and I don't have a lot of details. But it seems like when Endnote is running, Word will often hang. Maybe this is specific to Intel-based machines. Maybe the problem is actually with Word; it seems to hang even without Endnote, although Endnote seems to exacerbate the problem. But we're not wild about the end result.

So far this seems to be a great product! A lot has changed since I was an undergrad in the days before the internet. I particularly like the way EndNote will retrieve data automatically for references from its on-line libraries. Highly recommended for any student writing a thesis or dissertation!

1.0 out of 5 stars So far, a total waste of time and money, December 20, 2006

This review is from: EndNote for Students (CD-ROM)

I upgraded to Endnote X because I was hoping for more journal formats, and fewer of the bugs that plague Endnote 7. However, even after downloading updates from their website, Endnote X will not even open my older Endnote library. Since I don't have the option of manually re-entering 1,200 references, I'm back to using Endnote 7. Maybe your experience won't be as disappointing as mine, but so far the new Endnote is just as frustrating to work with as the original.
