  • Import of structured text files
  • Manual input and management of different types of references (books, journals, online sources)
  • Options for entering comments and quotations from other texts
  • Export in different formats (RIS, EndNote, BibTex, …)
  • Automatic generation of bibliographies and reference formatting according to the specifications of various citation styles (DIN 1505, MLA, APA, …)
