16: can attach up to 45 files per record in dedicated field: objects like spreadsheets or presentations documents, images, PDF files etc.;
18: can include one (only 1) graphic file within each reference in the Figure field: shown as a thumbnail when record is opened in Edit mode; graphics will be referred to in MS-WORD formatted manuscript, also containing dedicated list of figures (see section 13);
16-18: there is option to physically copy graphics and attached files to a [dbn].Data subdirectory so that they can be moved together without broken links;
21: can send data to a data visualization tool for statistical analysis (i.e. RefViz® http://www.refviz.com/); (powered by OmniViz and available also for Mac OS X), which is a separate package with its own licence;
22: can generate OpenURL compliant metadata from an opened record to the chosen OpenURL Resolver host server for reference linking (test only done via demo server); can also change the arguments, type of metadata sent to the resolver
23: can send data to and receive from EndNote Web; from a db record can try to find in the Internet, download, and automatically attach full-text pdf files along with core bibliographic data; from each record can search relevant full-text in the Internet, download it and attach it to the record

G - Internal database management
1. Rebuild
2. Compress (release space)
3. Statistics
1 2 (as 1)
Rebuild makes a copy and releases disk space; retains Groups and Stopwords of original database, but removes its Record list's configuration
En:
2: compressed library bcan also be sent automatically via e-mail'
3: database and record summaries present a quick snap shot of key metrics
1; 2 (as 1); 3
Rebuild does not need to make a copy, releases disk space, it retains Reference Indexes (kind of Groups) and brief record list configuration
3: File Properties gives in addition to standard properties: sort criterion and order (A/D), character set sort, total record number, total number of entries for authors, kw, periodical titles and dates, highest RefID
H - Functions across different databases
1. search
2. print
3. global corrections
4. duplicate detection
5. manuscript formatting
can act across 15 databases, but sort criterion and sort order must be the same; can display -not use- combined term lists
I - Database subsets
1. marked records
2. virtual sets (groups, folders)
1: only on the fly (do not stay across sessions)
2: named folders, last imported, and My list: they cannot be hierarchically nested; alphabetical sequence
En: 1: no marked records
2: "groups" of virtual records (up to 500): they cannot be hierarchically nested; apart from 'Custom' and Automatic (online search results, trash, imported, duplicates...) they can be smart/live, i.e. acting as a query
which points to its result
2 "reference index": each is a named saved search result, kind of a group, pointer to records; must be first selected as a field and searched as such via its name to display as 'retrieved' the records they point to. Retrieved records can then be the scope of various operations
K - Other library functions
(e.g. acquisitions, periodicals control, circulation)
1. built-in
2. can integrate
just a few statistics, see above in "Internal db management"
L - Data type that can handle
1. textual (also ANSI table chars 128-255, link to external proprietary files like PDF ...)
1.1 UNICODE chars set
2. numeric
3. graphic
4. audio
2: can format and sort Dates and Call number in a special way: for dates, chronological value underneath format; for classification codes: first LCCN, then DDC, then digits, then letters
3: incorporates thumbnails of graphics in the edit record view, not in the formatted preview; graphics can be incorporated in MS-WORD manuscripts; 3 and 4 also external via Windows Shell
M - Unicode compliance
"keep all your PC based on your preferred language for your regular activity also within RefWorks, load different Windows keyboards and make them available on the Language toolbar, switch to the desired scripts to enter and search data in your references. Select a Unicode font from within the browser do display, print, save unicode characters in the due form. Program automatically loads in language of browser" [from official documentation]
M - Command macros
