How to export the literature in EndNote as Word format?
Exporting references from EndNote into Microsoft Word involves utilizing the EndNote toolbar within Word itself. This process automatically generates a formatted bibliography or inserts individual citations directly into your document.
To execute this export, ensure the EndNote toolbar (usually labeled "EndNote" or "EndNote X9/X20" etc.) is visible in your Word ribbon. Before inserting, select the appropriate output style (e.g., APA, MLA) using the Style dropdown. Navigate to the location in your Word document where the bibliography should appear, then click the "Bibliography" button. Alternatively, use "Insert Citation" or "Insert Selected Citation(s)" to place individual references where the cursor is positioned. Ensure all citations used are properly selected within the EndNote library; the bibliography function gathers all cited references. Post-insertion, the bibliography can be formatted like regular text.
The primary method is through the dedicated EndNote Cite While You Write (CWYW) plugin in Word. Click on the "Bibliography" button within the EndNote toolbar section after selecting your desired output style; this adds the full bibliography at the cursor location. Use "Insert Citation" to search EndNote and add citations individually during writing. Final formatting adjustments can be made directly within Word. This integration streamlines manuscript preparation, ensuring accurate and consistently formatted references according to journal or style guidelines.
