This update brings an improved interface for inserting and editing citations in Microsoft Word for Mac and OpenOffice.org. It also adds a facility to produce a report of all annotations in a document.

• Added a tool to create a PDF report containing all annotations for an article. When viewing a PDF, go to File → Export PDF With Annotations.

Improvements to Existing Features:

Bug Fixes:
