||||
| Library Master | Procite | EndNote | Reference Manager | Papyrus |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LM: yes there is not third-party installation within wordprocessor's menu : LM will create another formatted wp document plus, optionally, another one with the bibliography list |
Pr: yes only CWYW "cite-while-you-write" facility is considered here : BFS acting as third party within the wp and inserting citations directly into the final document |
En: yes Windows version: A CWYW working with MS-WORD 97, 2000, XP B Add-in working with Corel-WP 9(2000) 10 (2002) Macintosh version: only MS-Word X compatibility Windows version: There is no comparison list of CWYW and Add-In.
Main differences: Only A has got Searching citations, Instant formatting,
Traveling library, Edit citations, Inserting notes,
Inserting Figures from db records and producing their full list, Preferences: see further on for details. |
RM: yes A CWYW working with MS-WORD 97, 2000, XP B CWYW working with MS-WORD 95 and Corel-WP 7, 8, 2000 There is no comparison chart of the two types of CWYW.
Main differences: Only A has got Searching citations, Instant formatting, Traveling library, Edit citations, Removal of codes, Inserting notes, the "/a" switch (to leave only the author's name), Preferences: see further on for details. |
Papyrus: yes there is not third-party installation within wordprocessor's menu (it uses Apple Events to communicate with MS-Word, Corel-WP, Nisus Writer) |

13.22 Other |

| LM: | Pr: | En: Remove codes (both in type A and B) can remove all codes from the formatted wp document to be forwarded to the publisher, it creates a copy of the original document it removes all codes from the copy, not just third party field codes. So things like Word's cross-reference field coding would be removed as well as EN codes Traveling library (type A) any author can work on a document with formatted citations prepared by another author, without having his db at hand. The MS-WORD document -via CWYW- actually swallows the whole bibliographic record (apart from Notes and Abstract) and embeds it in the document; Can export embedded records to an En db (or import from)Instant formatting (type A) can -optionally- instantly format record in the final style, before generating the document and the bibliography list (WYSIWYG-like) Edit citations (type A) can alter the basic placeholder by adding suffixes, prefixes, pages in a smooth way, by just entering data in windows, without resorting to coded commands; the same for mere notes in a numbered style Figures (type A) It searches (by using all fields, including caption words) figures in db records and inserts in-text figures citations : "(Figure 1)" [not the citation of the record containing it or the figure's caption]: the formatted figure list, along with the graphic images, appears at the end of the document, after the bibliography Document templates (type A) Can choose among dozens of shipped wp manuscript templates, i.e.: MS-WORD style document .DOT with structured sections |
