• Paste the BibTex or DOI from an academic PDF to have it automatically turn into a full citation
• Cite quickly and easily from Books, Web pages and YouTube videos (from specified time if desired)
• Citations can easily be moved around from one document to another by clicking on the citation and choosing 'Copy Citation'.
Advanced Automatic Export Options
• Append References Section
• Create Cover Page
• Number Headings
• Specify how citations should appear: Author Date or Author Number
• Makes typed-out links live
• Option to have Visual-Meta attached
• Publish to WordPress: Supports multiple accounts and image attachments
Advanced Views
• Dynamic View: Think freely without being constrained by the traditional columns of text. Mind map, concept map and jot down thoughts, right inside Author.
• Instant Outline: Pinch on your trackpad to fold the text to see just the headings. Pinch further in or out to see more or less headings
• Advanced Find: If you only want to see sentences with a specific keyword, select the keyword cmd-f to hide all the sentences which do not have the keyword will be hidden. Click on a sentence to jump to it, cmd-f again or ESC to return to the regular view.
• Magic Margins: Double click in the margins (in full screen mode) to jot down any notes. If the notes are also in the document they will be bold and you can double-click to see all their occurrences. Note: These margins do not follow your document when you scroll, they are separate, to allow you to have an always-available space to jot notes–hence they are not like traditional margins
