Frequently Asked Questions

This tool converts EndNote XML format (.xml), which is the native export format from EndNote desktop application. For RIS exports, use the RIS to BibTeX converter.

In EndNote, select references, go to File > Export. Choose 'XML' as the output style. Save the file and upload it here to convert to BibTeX.

Journal articles, books, book chapters, conference papers, theses, reports, web pages, and all other EndNote reference types are mapped to appropriate BibTeX entry types.

Author names are extracted and formatted as 'LastName, FirstName and LastName, FirstName' which is the standard BibTeX format for multiple authors.

Absolutely. All conversion happens in your browser. Your EndNote library with potentially thousands of references never leaves your device.

Keys are auto-generated from the first author's last name and publication year (e.g., 'Smith2023'). Duplicates receive letter suffixes (Smith2023a, Smith2023b).

LaTeX special characters (&, %, $, #, _, {, }) are automatically escaped. Unicode characters are preserved for use with modern LaTeX engines.

Yes. The tool efficiently handles libraries with hundreds or thousands of references. Processing happens in your browser's memory.

Author, title, journal, year, volume, issue, pages, DOI, URL, abstract, keywords, publisher, ISBN, and most other EndNote fields are mapped to BibTeX equivalents.

Only available fields are included in the output. The tool shows a count of references with missing required fields (like year or author) for review.
