Info request about references

[pakojil]

Hello Martin
First of all, thank you for your effort, and tell you that your tool seems great to me.
However, I'm going crazy with the question of references, which always appear to me with the <mixed-citation> tag.
Even having Zotero installed, and inserting the citations and references with Zotero, I can't get it to work properly.
I work on MAC OS Catalina, and everything works for me except for the question I indicated above.
I have followed the instructions, and I have put the path to the Zotero database, but I get nothing.
I am also not able to use the bibscan option.
Could you clarify for me in what format this NLM XML bibliography must be with an example file, and tell me from where and with what tool it is generated?
And a complete command line example with that option, please.
Thanks a lot

Hi, Can you please upload me your test document so I can see what you are doing? Best wishes, Martin

Thank you, @MartinPaulEve ,
I have prepared the same document in 3 versions:

Simple:

Normal text, with quotations in parentheses, and manual reference list.
It identifies in-line citations well and does linking well in interactive mode:

<xref rid="id" ref-type="bibr" id="IDa9ba38b1-bd56-4d88-b7d3-e7fca59b184f">Erren, Shaw y Morfeld, 2016, p. 1431</xref>

But creates the reference with <mixed-citation> tag, both in non-interactive mode:

<ref> <mixed-citation>ERREN, T.C.; SHAW, D. y MORFELD, P. Analyzing the publish-or-perish paradigm with game theory: The prisoner&#8217;s dilemma and a possible escape. Science and Engineering Ethics, 2016, vol. 22, n&#186; 5, p. 1431&#8211;1446. Disponible en: https://doi.org/10.1007/s11948-015-9701-x.</mixed-citation> </ref>

As in interactive mode:

<ref id="ID04b654ba-90d2-4e9c-b944-3579fcb51c85"> <mixed-citation>ERREN, T.C.; SHAW, D. y MORFELD, P. Analyzing the publish-or-perish paradigm with game theory: The prisoner&#8217;s dilemma and a possible escape. Science and Engineering Ethics, 2016, vol. 22, n&#186; 5, p. 1431&#8211;1446. Disponible en: https://doi.org/10.1007/s11948-015-9701-x.</mixed-citation> </ref>

Mendeley:

Same text, but using Mendeley addin. In interactive mode, linking is correct, but still uses the <mixed-citation> tag:
<ref id="ID0177b435-d8d6-4f17-b6f2-332da1b6ace3"> <mixed-citation>ERREN, T. C., SHAW, D., &amp; MORFELD, P. (2016). Analyzing the publish-or-perish paradigm with game theory: The prisoner&#8217;s dilemma and a possible escape. <italic>Science and Engineering Ethics</italic>, <italic>22</italic>(5), 1431&#8211;1446. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11948-015-9701-x.</mixed-citation> </ref>

Zotero:

The same text, but citations and final references inserted using the Zotero Addon for Mac Word 2016. It does not do linking well either in interactive or non-interactive mode:

<xref rid="TO_LINK" ref-type="bibr" id="ID38989560-1e20-4878-bc3f-08662127bb3d">ERREN et al., 2016, p. 1431</xref>

It also fails in references, showed as <p> because the zotero module fails completely:

<p>ERREN, T.C.; SHAW, D. y MORFELD, P. Analyzing the publish-or-perish paradigm with game theory: The prisoner’s dilemma and a possible escape. Science and Engineering Ethics, 2016, vol. 22, nº 5, p. 1431–1446. Disponible en: https://doi.org/10.1007/s11948-015-9701-x.</p>

In the settings.xml file, I have indicated the path to my zotero.sqlite database, indicating the full path to the last forward slash before the file name:
<mt:zotero>/Users/my_name/Zotero/</mt:zotero>

I think I'm doing the right thing, so I don't understand the error messages and the undesired functioning of the program.
Maybe it's a problem with Word versions and Zotero addons. In that case, could you tell me which combination works correctly?

That is, what version of Word, what version of Zotero, which version of Zotero addon, and what operating system.
I use macOS Catalina 10.15.7, Microsoft Word for Mac 16.45, Zotero 5.0.95, and the Zotero Word for Mac Integration 5.0.30.SA.5.0.95 addon.

On the other hand, could you tell me about the bibscan mode? I don't know what type of file it is (an example would be very appreciated), not how it is obtained (if it can be generated by export from Zotero, Mendeley or another application), or how it is actually used.

I don't know if you have an example of a docx file, and a small library to display a demo, with the command line correct syntax, and the explanations of the referred --options in your documentation.

Thank you very much for everything, and I apologize for the extensive and detailed message.
