EndNote Technical Support


I have an Endnote enhancement request which may be unique.  Chinese,
Japanese and Korean names are traditionally listed family name first: Mao
Tse-tung's family name is Mao and Hata Tsutomu's family name is Hata. There
is, therefore, no need for a comma between the names in a bibliography.  If
I alter the style in this way, however, I get "Clinton Bill" instead of
"Clinton, Bill."  Although I can manually select different styles when
pasting in footnotes, I would like to be able to tag different references
so that they default to different name formats. How about it?

A more complex request.  Endnote works quite well under WorldScript,
meaning it supports Chinese and Japanese.  I would love the ability to
compile bibliographies using original Japanese citation, the
transiliterated citation, or both.  This, of course, would require two
fields for entries such as journal, author, etc.: one for the original
non-Roman language and the other for the Roman letter transliteration.  I'm
sure this would complicate matters, but it would open up some interesting
new markets for you.

I look forward to your response.  In the meantime, thanks for actually
listening to the people who buy your product.
