Hi there. I just found your application, and it is an absolute lifesaver. I have over 3000 pdf articles, book sections, etc. on my computer that I turn to for research, and for the first time I stand a chance of being able find what I'm looking for quickly and easily, and cite it even more easily. Of course, first I have to load them all in, and as most are OCR'd, the extraction of title/author/volume type info is less than ideal. I wondered if you're interested in any feedback on articles that failed to extract title and author info correctly.
Also, a question. Does Mendeley have the ability to add custom fields? For example, many of the articles I have are in foreign languages, and I'd like an additional field specifically to hold the english translation of the title. Most of the articles deal with historic subjects, and I would like to have a beginning and ending date for material that the article deals with, so that I can filter and search for, say, articles dealing with 1550-1600.
Thanks,
Drea
