help... Endnote forces me to do the dirty work myself
Hi all,
I have many articles as pdf files sorted in folders.
Is there a way endnote can read those files and extract the bibiliographic data from them itself (like authors names, journal, year etc.?).
Because as I understood from the tutorials on the Endnotes site, I had needed to coordinate my literature search in sciefinder with it, but I
installed it just now...

I think you will have to find the related articles on PubMed/whatever journal site you are getting them from, and then import them into Endnote in the
appropriate format.
I.e. When I use PubMed, I download the article as a PDF file, but also save the bibliographic data and import it as a Medline file into Endnote.

you're right.
I needed to search again and export the results as a "tagged .txt file"
