OVID WWW Printing/Downloading




PRINTING

To print, click in the box which appears with each desired item. Click on Display at the bottom of the screen. To change the fields being displayed and printed, use the scroll bar to move down to the Citation Manager and click on the desired combination of fields. NOTE: Each graphic in the complete articles of the Core Biomedical Collection (CBC) is a separate file and must be displayed on the workstation screen before it can be printed. Special viewer software that works with your WWW browser may be necessary to display graphics. Details on obtaining the appropriate software are available in the Library and on the WWW: http://www.medlib.iupui.edu/graphics. Use the WWW browser Print command to send the collected references or individual graphic files to the printer.

NOTE: Printers at Library workstations are not currently configured to print graphics. You can print graphics at your own computer, if your printer is capable of handling them.

DOWNLOADING

To save specific items, click in the box appearing with each desired item. To change the fields being displayed and saved, use the scroll bar to move down to the Citation Manager and click on the desired combination of fields. Choose a Format by clicking in the appropriate circle. If you will be transferring the citations to a personal bibliographic management software program (e.g. ProCite, Reference Manager, EndNote), choose the BRS/Tagged or Reprint/Medlars format, depending on your software's importing requirements.

Click on Save.

NOTE: Each graphic in the complete articles of the Core Biomedical Journals collection is a separate file and must be displayed on the workstation screen before it can be printed or downloaded. A special viewer that works with your WWW browser to display graphics may be necessary. Details on obtaining the appropriate software are available in the Library and on the WWW: http://www.medlib.iupui.edu/graphics. To save a displayed graphic, use the Save command (or its equivalent) in your WWW brower, not the OVID Save command.

The first time you download a file, you may have to designate an application to read it. OVID files are downloaded as ASCII text, so most word processing programs (e.g. WordPerfect or Microsoft Word) and simple text editors can read them.

EMAIL

To save specific items to an email account, click in the box appearing with each desired item. To change the fields being displayed and emailed, use the scroll bar to move down to the Citation Manager and click on the desired combination of fields. If you will be transferring the citations to a personal bibliographic management software program (e.g. ProCite, Reference Manager, EndNote), choose the BRS/Tagged or Reprint/Medlars format, depending on your software's importing requirements.

In the Citation Manager, click on Email.

Click in the box labeled Send Email Citations To: and fill in the complete internet email address of the recipient. Click in the box labeled From: and fill in your complete internet email address. If you do not fill in the From: box, the email message will indicate that it came from rlmlnet at iupui.edu.

Click on Send Citations by Email. When the message Your citations were successfully sent appears, click on Main search page to return to your search.
