Import PDFs - X4/X5/X6/X7 - EndNote Tips - Research Guides at Saint Louis University Libraries: This is another method to import a pdf of an article and attach it to its bibliographic reference.

New in EndNote X7, not only will EndNote import a signle pdf file or a folder of pdf files, but it can also

provide standard names for each imported file - Go to Edit-->Preferences-->PDF Handling to set your preferences for this option
automatically import pdf files saved into a designated folder. You designate which folder in the PDF Handling preferences screen.

EndNote X4, X5, and X6 allows for importing a single pdf file or a folder of pdf files stored on your computer into EndNote. Bibliographic references will be created for the article(s) and the pdf(s) attached if

You have already saved the pdf of the article on your computer and
Each pdf you are importing has a DOI (Digital Object Identifier) embedded in it.
