If a website isn't importing properly, please report it on the Zotero Forums and provide the webpage URL.Īs noted above, when possible, we recommend saving items using the Save to Zotero button in your browser from the primary webpage (e.g, a journal article's abstract page) rather than adding PDFs directly. You can choose an alternative translator by right-clicking on the Zotero save button (or the page background in Safari) and choosing one of the supplied options. Zotero will generally choose the best translator available for each site automatically. For example, importing an item from the publisher website will generally yield much better data than importing from Google Scholar. Metadata for the same item may vary in quality across sites providing it. (For more information, see our compatible websites list.) By default, translator updates are automatically installed, independent of Zotero updates. Zotero recognizes almost all library catalogs, most news sites, research databases and scientific publishers. For many sites, Zotero has website-specific “translators” to obtain the best quality metadata. Other websites provide only limited metadata (e.g., only the title of a blog post) or no metadata at all. Some websites provide very high-quality data using a standard way to provide Zotero with data (via embedded metadata). Obviously this covers saving a webpage as a PDF file on Mac OS with Safari, but iPhone and iPad can save webpages as PDF too using an equally simple and direct feature.The quality of the data Zotero imports is determined by the information supplied on the webpage. If you find yourself using that feature often enough you can even set a “Save as PDF” keyboard shortcut for use on the Mac to be able to quickly perform that function. If for some reason this doesn’t work for you, or if you’re using a different web browser on a Mac that doesn’t support the direct ‘Export as PDF’ option, you can still easily save a webpage as a PDF by simply using Print to PDF on the Mac, which is available on every Mac OS release. The resulting webpage PDF can be used just like any other PDF file, you can email it, share it, upload it, or whatever else just like any other PDF document. The PDF file of the saved webpage will be wherever you saved the file to, whether that was your user Documents folder, the Desktop, Downloads folder, or elsewhere. Set the file name and choose a file destination and choose “Save” to save the webpage as a PDF.Choose “Export as PDF” from the File menu.Open Safari on the Mac, then navigate to the webpage you want to save as a PDF file.How to Save Webpages as PDF on Mac with Safari Note if you’re using an iPhone or iPad, you can save webpages as PDF on iPhone or iPad with these instructions instead. This tutorial will show you how to easily save a webpage as a PDF file using the Safari web browser on a Mac.
