Force paperpile NOT to use a local copy

So I think I have a work-around which involves ‘re-initializing’ the references in a new document and then copying over the old text.

Start New Document

  1. Type some dummy random text, and add new citations to the texts that you are having trouble re-linking to the Database. By default it will use the database entry obviously. Add some more text etc, more new refences. This will all be deleted later. (Do NOT copy in any text fromt he ‘localized’ document)

  2. Run ‘Format Citations’

  3. Close and Re-open the document

  4. Now paste in the Old text (but after the initializing stuff and before the inserted Bibliography

  5. Close and Re-open the document

  6. Run ‘Format Citations’ (I think this now over-rides the local copy data with the re-initialized citations)

  7. Delete the dummy random text

  8. Run ‘Format Citations’
