Find Full Text Groups
During the Find Full Text searching and downloading process, results are constantly updated under a Find Full Text group set.
The results of a Find Full Text search remain for the current session until you close the library. The categories include:
- Searching…
- Found PDF
- Found URL
- Not found
If you run the Find Full Text operation more than once during a single library session, the additional references are added to the references already found in the Find Full Text groups.
Searching...
This group displays the current set of references for which EndNote is attempting to find either the full text file of each referenced work or at least a URL to the referenced work. When the full text search is completed, this group is deleted. Those references to which full text or a URL was added are displayed in a Found PDF group or a Found URL group.
You can cancel the Find Full Text operation at any time by right-clicking on the Searching group, to display a context-sensitive menu, and selecting Cancel finding full text. Full text that has been retrieved until that point is already saved in the library.
You can pause the Find Full Text operation at any time by right-clicking on the Searching group, to display a context-sensitive menu, and selecting Pause finding full text. Full text that has been retrieved until that point is already saved in the library.
Found PDF
This group displays the set of references for which EndNote inserted the PDF file of the referenced work as an attachment. These references display a paper clip icon in the File Attachments column of the Reference List. If a URL is also found, it is added to the reference, but the reference is not included in the Found URL group.
If the Find Full Text operation recognizes an already attached file as being the same as that found for a selected reference, EndNote will not attach the new file. This means the original PDF, with any personal annotations, will not be replaced by the newly found PDF. If it finds a different file, it will add the new file to the record. For example, if you manually added a PDF of related material, but not the article itself, when the PDF for the article is found, it will be attached to the PDF by Find Full Text.
Found URL
This group displays the set of references for which EndNote inserted a URL to the referenced work, but did not find a full text document to attach.
Not Found
This group displays the set of references for which EndNote could not identify a full text file or a URL. These are only from the set of references searched with the Find Full Text command during this session of the EndNote library.
