EndNote Online allows you to add PDFs, images or other files to your references provided you have a copy saved to your computer or a shared drive;- this allows you to add figures, illustrations or even the full text. Note that a full record with online link should still provide access to the text without requiring the PDF.

Open your reference and choose to Attach files or Attach figure. You can add up to five files and one figure to each reference.

You can manage your attachments by choosing Organize - Manage Attachments. This will also show you how much file space you have available. This may be unlimited if you also have Endnote Desktop, or 2GB if you are using Endnote Online through Web of Science.

Manage Attachments
