About KBibTeX

KBibTeX is a reference management application which can be used to collect TeX/LaTeX bibliographies and export them in various formats.

KBibTeX can do the following things:

Preview bibliography entries in various formats (Source (BibTeX), Source (RIS), Wikipedia, standard (XML/XSLT), fancy (XML/XSLT), and abstract-only (XML/XSLT)). Additional preview styles become available when bibtex2html is installed.

Import data in various bibliography file formats such as BibTeX, RIS and ISI (requires bibutils) and export data to PDF (requires pdflatex), PostScript (requires latex), RTF (requires latex2rtf), and HTML.

Search for the bibliography entries data in online databases (e.g. Google Scholar, ACM, IEEE, arXiv, etc.)

Preview local or remote (online) resources, e.g. PDF files, linked in the BibTEX entry.

Find and merge duplicate entries in bibliography.

Integrate your bibliographies with LaTeX editors such as Kile and LyX.

Import your Zotero library.
