the Zoterro web form still doesn't seem to work on most pdf files,

This is a very simple pdf with AFAICT no anti-robot countermeasures,=0A=

it contains the doi early in the text but more to the point in several form=
ats in the=0A=
extended information obtained with exiftool ( see below toobib output ).=0A=

The zotero webform, https://zbib.org/ , gave an error message=0A=
toobib got the output below. Now, you could argue, " well great just give z=
oterro the=0A=
doi link from the text." That's an extra step but more importantly loses th=
e fulltext=0A=
link that I'm reading and doesn't make it easy to add to the bibtex for lat=
er=0A=
readers or a replay. Its not real common but more papers seem to have doi i=
n the=0A=
extended information lately. I include bibtex as posted a few years ago:)=
=0A=
But even without that, toobib is pretty good at scraping doi's although sur=
e=0A=
sometimes it gets the wrong one.  And instead of sanitizing toobib tries to=
 save originals=0A=
in fields that were modified for many reasons including dev and debug of co=
urse ... =0A=
It does delete fields over a certain size, note "references" was deleted, b=
ut=0A=
often these are spurious when scraped from html meta data.=0A=
