Note: If you downloaded Pages from the Mac App Store, you may need to install the Pages EndNote Plug-In.

Choose a bibliography format

If you have the EndNote plug-in, you can use EndNote to add an automatically updating bibliography to the end of your document.

  1. Open EndNote, then choose Edit > Output Styles > Open Style Manager (from the Edit menu at the top of your screen).

  2. Choose the styles you want to appear as format options in Pages.

    You can create your own styles by choosing Edit > Output Styles > New Style.

  3. In Pages, choose Edit > EndNote Citations > Bibliography Format, then choose a format.

If you copy a citation’s reference from the body text of a document and then paste the citation into a document (the same or a different document), the citation is added and a bibliography field is added to the end of the document.
