Formatted lists are fully editable in Reference Tracker's rich text editor and you can export your lists to Microsoft Word, Rich Text, Plain Text, HTML, BibTex and RIS formats.
- Store Reference Materials
You can attach documents, such as articles, journals and ebooks to you Reference Tracker documents to keep all your reference materials in one convenient place.
- Create and Share Custom Reference Styles
Reference Tracker has a really easy to use styles editor so you can create your own custom styles, or modify any existing styles. Even better, you can share your styles with one click, meaning you can also download and use styles shared by other users.
