Inserting and Formatting Figures and Tables
Once images are organized in an EndNote library, they are available for inserting into a manuscript with Cite While You Write commands. The finishing touch is the automatic creation of a figure list and/or a table list that presents a sequential list of all graphics inserted in a manuscript from EndNote. Graphics not inserted from EndNote will not appear in figure or table lists.
A figure citation is a brief numbered citation in the body of a paper that refers the reader to a figure at the end of the paragraph or to a figure in a complete list of figures at the end of the paper.
In-text figure citations are sequentially numbered and formatted like this:
Marrella is a small "arthropod" somewhat reminiscent of a trilobite. This illustration also shows the dark "blob" produced by body contents which were squeezed out of the animal after burial. (Figure 1)
It includes the word "Figure" (or "Table"), the sequential number, and surrounding parentheses. The field may be shaded by Word to help you see citations, but shading does not print. You can turn field shading off in Word.
The current output style determines the placement of formatted figures and tables. They appear either within the body of the paper, directly after the paragraph where they are cited, or in a list at the end of the document, after the bibliography.
Note: Figure citations are not bibliographic citations and will not appear in the bibliography. If the figure is from a reference, you must insert the reference as a citation separately to have it appear in the bibliography.
