Popular bibliographic software expands global market with Unicode support and extends database capabilities for greater productivity
Adept Scientific announces a major upgrade to EndNote - the bibliographic management software, developed by ISI Researchsoft and used by millions of researchers, librarians and students worldwide.
Well known for introducing innovative features including the ability to search online bibliographic databases, organise references and images, and create instant bibliographies, EndNote 8 now offers Unicode support for any language, unlimited library size, new reference types and fields, and enhanced support for electronic resources.
"Unicode has been our most frequently requested enhancement," said David Kochalko, president, Thomson ISI ResearchSoft.
"Now users can search, import, organise and cite references in a wide variety of languages.
"EndNote 8 is truly a global-scale product for a worldwide audience".
Unicode support.
EndNote 8 implements support for the Unicode standard, providing users with a solution for processing and displaying multi-lingual text. Unicode covers all principal languages of the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia and the Pacific Rim.
With EndNote 8 researchers and students can cite references and create bibliographies for their papers using any language.
Expanded library capabilities.
Now with EndNote 8, users have unlimited storage capacity as well as additional ways to collect and organise references.
Working in EndNote users can create EndNote libraries of unlimited size, enter long abstracts and notes - 50KB or approximately ten pages of text in each, and use new reference types and fields - enhanced support for electronic sources.
In response to the increasing variety of electronic resources, EndNote 8 provides new reference types including Electronic Book, Electronic Journal and Online Database as well as new reference fields such as Link to PDF, Electronic Resource Number and Last Modified Date.
Additional connectivity for EndNote References.
EndNote 8 users can move an EndNote library to any handheld device running Palm OS4.1-5.x and can locate references easily with the new 'find reference' function.
Version 8 now provides over 2200 ways to connect EndNote with bibliographic databases and publishing styles. EndNote 8 demonstrates the ongoing commitment of software developers ISI ResearchSoft to improve the core features that make EndNote an essential tool for anyone involved with research, writing and publishing.
EndNote 8 is designed for Windows 2000 and XP.
