Notes About Formatting Figures and Tables
- Do not use Microsoft Word Captioning in conjunction with EndNote figure captioning or in-text citations.
- Images found in the "Chart or Table" reference type are inserted into word as tables, which are labeled and numbered separately from figures. (You still use the generic Insert Figure command.)
- If you open an existing document that already has figure citations in the body (that were not inserted with EndNote’s Insert Figure command), those figures will not be included in the figure list. You will need to add the existing figures to references in EndNote, and then use the Insert Figure command to insert them into the document.
- You can format figures either directly after the paragraph in which they are cited or in a list at the end of the document. See Figures and Tables Preferences in Microsoft Word.
- The Instant Formatting that applies to bibliographies does not apply to figures. In-text figure citations are always formatted as you insert them, but if you move or delete a figure citation in your paper, you must select Update Citations and Bibliography on the EndNote tab.
- Figure and table captions are added from the Caption field in the EndNote reference.
- If more than one in-text figure citation references the same figure with the same caption, those citations are assigned the same figure number, and the figure appears only once in a figure list.
- You can manually insert a page break between figures if you prefer each figure on a separate page. These page breaks will be remembered if you select Update Citations and Bibliography again.
