Convert to plain text

When your manuscript is finished and ready to be submitted to a journal, it is preferable to save a copy of the document in Plain Text – that is without Endnote codes.

1.    Click on Tools.

2.    Select Convert to Plain Text in the list.

4. Name the new document so it is obvious which document that still has the field codes and which does not, for example “with codes” and “without codes”.
