FOR IMMEDIATE
RELEASE
Carlsbad CA, USA - August 25, 2006—Today, Thomson ResearchSoft (www.researchsoft.com),
a business of The Thomson Corporation, announced the immediate
availability of EndNote®
X for Mac®
OS X, the bibliographic management software used by millions of
researchers, librarians and students. EndNote is the industry
standard for creating easy bibliographies and managing references.
EndNote X, designed for Intel®
Core(TM),
provides expanded PDF management, increased flexibility in viewing,
searching and handling reference information, as well as new
Mac-specific features.
“I
really like EndNote X. There are several new features in version X
that make my life easier. Dragging and dropping a PDF file onto an
EndNote record allows me to integrate PDFs into my EndNote library
smoothly. These new EndNote X features are huge time savers for
me.”—Corentin Cras-Méneur, Ph.D.
“EndNote
X combines new PDF management and other features with the power of
the Mac Intel Core to provide Mac users with integrated solutions
for research and publishing,” said David L. Kochalko, president,
Thomson ResearchSoft. “EndNote X gives Mac users more options in how
they view and interact with their reference collections, supporting
individual work styles.”
Expanded PDF Management
EndNote X introduces a new way to manage PDFs. Simply drag and
drop a PDF file onto an EndNote record. EndNote stores the file
with the EndNote references, and creates a link automatically.
Existing PDF links in an EndNote library can be converted to the
new PDF management system in one step. And the new compressed
library option creates a single-file backup for easy transport of
an EndNote library between computers. These features save time,
and make it easy to share an EndNote library, including the linked
PDFs, with colleagues.
New Custom Toolbars and Increased Flexibility in Handling Reference
Information
EndNote X for Mac allows users to customize toolbars for working
with libraries and references. EndNote X also provides users with
more flexibility in how they work with their references. Up to eight
fields are visible in the reference list display, and users can
click-sort column heads to locate records quickly. PDF links are
identified easily with a new PDF icon. The reference edit window now
includes a new option to “show and hide empty fields” to reduce
scrolling through reference detail. And in response to user
requests, new reference types are available—Grant, Ancient Text,
Dictionary and Encyclopedia.
New Ways to Search and Connect
Now users can search EndNote libraries using the new “begins with”
or “ends with” options for fields and words. EndNote X search
results in Mac OS X Tiger Spotlight searches now include descriptive
details making individual references more identifiable. And EndNote X offers
many more ways to connect EndNote with bibliographic databases and
publishing styles—800+ connections to online sources, 540+ import
filters and over 2,300 journal styles!
Pricing and Availability
EndNote X is designed for Mac OS X and Windows 2000 and XP. The list
price of EndNote X is $299.95 USD. Students in North America can
purchase EndNote X for $109.95 USD with a valid student I.D. For a
list of international distributors, go to www.endnote.com. Special
upgrade prices are available to owners of previous versions. EndNote
X is now available from Thomson ResearchSoft, college and university
bookstores, and authorized resellers worldwide.
