Popular bibliographic software expands global market with Unicode support and includes Microsoft Word 2004 compatibility

Thomson ResearchSoft is now shipping both Windows and Macintosh versions of EndNote® 8 – a major upgrade to the bibliographic management software used by millions of researchers, librarians and students worldwide. EndNote is well known for introducing innovative features including the ability to search online bibliographic databases, organise references and images, and create instant bibliographies. EndNote 8 offers Unicode support for any language, unlimited library size, new reference types and fields, and Microsoft® Word 2004 compatibility.

“Unicode has been our most frequently requested enhancement,” said David L. Kochalko, President, Thomson ResearchSoft. “Now Mac OS X users can organise and cite references in a wide variety of languages. EndNote 8 demonstrates the ongoing commitment of ResearchSoft to improve core features that make EndNote an essential tool for anyone involved with research, writing and publishing worldwide.”

Unicode Support
EndNote 8 implements support for the Unicode standard, providing users with a solution for processing and displaying multi-lingual text. Since Unicode covers all principal languages, with EndNote 8 researchers and students can cite references and create bibliographies for their papers in the languages of the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia and the Pacific Rim.

Expanded Library Capabilities
Now with EndNote 8, users have unlimited storage capacity as well as additional ways to collect and organise references including:

• Creating EndNote libraries of unlimited size
• Entering long abstracts and notes—50KB or approximately 10 pages of text in each
• Using new reference types and fields—enhanced support for electronic sources.

In response to the increasing variety of electronic resources EndNote 8 provides new reference types including Electronic Book, Electronic Journal and Online Database, as well as new reference fields such as Electronic Resource Number and Last Modified Date.

Additional Connectivity for EndNote References
EndNote 8 users can move an EndNote library to any handheld device running Palm® OS 4.0 – 5.0 and can locate references easily with the new “find reference” function. The latest version provides over 2,200 ways to connect EndNote with bibliographic databases and publishing styles.
