Manually attach a PDF to an existing reference

This method is useful when you already have the PDF of a reference saved on your computer. This method is carried out for one reference at a time, not multiple reference simultaneously.

1. In your EndNote Desktop library, select (click) the reference you would like to attach the PDF to, then:

  • Click the Attach File button within the Summary tab on the right panel, then select file and press the Open button.

OR

  • File Attachments > Attach File > select file > press the Open button.

2. Click on any other reference to bring up a "Do you want to save the changes you made to the reference?" pop-up box. Click Yes.

3. Repeat steps 1-2 for each other reference you want to attach a PDF to.

The PDF file is attached to the reference in your EndNote Desktop library, as evident by the paperclip icon  next to each one.
