When you retrieve the full text file of a referenced work, it is saved to the File Attachments field as a relative link (the file itself it stored in the current library’s .DATA folder). The file is saved in its native format, which in most cases is a PDF file.
When a full text file is downloaded and attached to a reference, a file attachment icon appears in the File Attachment field for the reference. In the Library window, a paper clip icon appears in the File Attachments column for that reference.
Note: In order to find full text, cookies must be turned on in Internet Explorer.
The Find Full Text command can attempt to find full text documents for up to 1000 records at a time; this total includes all full text searches run concurrently in open databases. If you want to find the full text for more than 1000 EndNote records, you must run the Find Full Text operation more than once. Highlight up to 1000 references each time. |

The Find Full Text command is availale only in Integrated Library and Online Search Mode or Local Library Mode. It is not available in Online mode.
To find and retrieve full text:
1. Select the reference(s) to which you want to add full text.
- In the Library window, highlight up to 1000 references.
- For example, you can select a single reference, or hold down the Ctrl key to highlight individual references, or use Edit>Select All to select an entire Group of displayed references.
- Or, open an individual reference for editing.
2. From the References menu, select Find Full Text>Find Full Text.
- If you have a reference open, you can use the right-click contextual menu to select Find Full Text.
- (Optional) If you have entered an OpenURL address and authentication URL under Find Full Text preferences, you may be directed to a login web page for your institution’s library.
- Follow the instructions to log in, such as entering the appropriate User ID and password.
- Once you are logged in, click Continue. EndNote begins searching for and downloading full text for the selected references.
Full text downloading happens in the background, which may affect the performance of other operations. References appear in groups under a Find Full Text group on the left. See The Find Full Text Groups for a description of the resulting groups. |
