Using the J-Link browser add-on

J-Link logo

J-Link is very easy to use:

  1. Click the button in your web browser when you see references that you would like to know more about.
  2. Wait while links are created.
  3. Click one of the new links (they are green and double-underlined) to view JustCite information about the document.

J-Link buttons in the Toolbar

The appearance of the J-Link button depends on the version of your web browser:

J-Link button in the Internet Explorer 6 Toolbar

J-Link button in the Internet Explorer 6 Toolbar (Windows XP)

J-Link button in the Internet Explorer 7 Command Bar

J-Link button in the Internet Explorer 7 Command Bar (Windows Vista)

J-Link on the right-click menu

You can also use J-Link by right-clicking in a web page and selecting J-Link on the pop-up menu:

J-Link on the browser's right-click menu

Using J-Link with selected text

If you want J-Link to convert just one or a few references, instead of scanning the whole page, drag over the reference(s) with your mouse before you click the menu item or button.

Using J-Link with selected references

NOTES:
(i) J-Link sometimes fails to identify selected references within a table.
(ii) The fonts and spacing of selected text may sometimes be changed in unexpected ways.

Existing links and PDF documents

J-Link does not alter links that already exist.

The current version of J-Link does not add links to PDF documents.

Removing links produced by J-Link

To remove the links that J-Link has added, just click the Refresh button in your web browser.

J-Link only adds links to the version of the web page that is displayed in your browser; it does not touch the original document on the web server.

Saving links produced by J-Link

It is not possible to save web pages containing links that have been added by J-Link – you can save the file, but it will not contain the links.

Justis Publishing has other products that can add links permanently to HTML and Microsoft Word documents.
