RIS records and goal

Hi there,

Did you see the picture i sent? It has a view of each thing I did.

First question's answer:
The RIS record type is the one present in the record I reproduced at the end of the reply (the one that works) and is "TY - BOOK".

Second question's answer:
The L1 tag adds the pdf file to the record, as you can see in the picture attached.

Finally, and maybe I should have stated this in the beginning, what I am trying to achieve:
  • I am a PhD student.
  • I "grabbed" near 4000 books from the internet.
  • I "passed" them through Calibre so I can have a good deal of metadata e the various fields, with correct ISBN, etc.
  • I would like to export them changing the name and the metadata, and ending with only one pdf file, instead of the three files (file+cover+metadata), so that I can import them to a reference manager (Endnote, Mendeley, Zotero) - !!!this is not working!!! So, instead, I am trying to export them from Calibre to Zotero with the pdf file attached. The thing is that your plugin works perfectly to export all the metadata but it misses the L1 (as you already justified why). So I was trying to solve it on my own, but I know nothing about programming.
  • Now I think that I can, after I add the files to Zotero, export them to Mendeley, add the feature that they have of identifying The TOC (Table of Contents) and in the end have a set of files with the correct ISBN, the Name of the File that I want, the several metadata and tags and TOC and start from there to analyse my bibliography and querying it, etc. Ultimately I want to add them to a content analysis software like MaxQDA or NVivo and start working on my thesis with a solid database.
  • Sorry for this.
