Custom Installations / Adding Content Files

First, install the full EndNote program as described in your Getting Started Guide.

Installing with the EndNote Customizer

You can use the EndNote Customizer to install, reinstall, or remove specific components after the EndNote program has already been installed. The Customizer gives you full access to all available content files (connection files, import filters, and output styles).

• Cite While You Write: If you install Microsoft Word after installing EndNote, you will need to install Cite While You Write files. Close Word before installing the files.

• Services for Mac OS X: You can install Services in order to use Format Paper to insert and format references in an RTF file or an OpenDocument ODT file.

• Connection Files, Import Filters, and Output Styles: For performance speed, EndNote initially installs only the most popular of these files. Use the Customizer to install additional groups of content files.

To do a custom installation:

1. Make sure no applications are running - including virus protection software and Microsoft Word.

2. Start the EndNote program.

3. From the EndNote menu, select Customizer.

4. On the Component Selection dialog, select the components you want to install (or keep installed).
   
   You can expand the lists of Connections, Import Filters, and Output Styles to limit your selection to specific groups of files.  Any components that are not selected will be removed.

5. Click Next.

Adding Content Files

The EndNote team has developed thousands of content files (output styles, filters, and connection files). Because installing all of these files can slow performance, a typical EndNote installation includes only the most popular of each type of file.

For information specifically about installing additional content files after EndNote is installed, see these topics:

• Installing Additional Connection Files

• Installing Additional Filters

• Installing Additional Output Styles

Removing Extraneous Files

If you want to free up disk space, or want to limit the options available, you can delete individual example files, styles, connection files, filters, term lists, and spell check dictionaries. You can later restore these files by copying them from your installation CD or disk image.
