Description

Many programs give links to PDFs in their BibTeX export. Unfortunately, it is highly non-standard. We only support:

Old JabRef

pdf={/full/path/to/file.pdf}

but the full path is sometimes prefixed by the protocol (Zotero assumes that it is absent & prepends 'file://'). Further, it is often stored in other fields:

Sente:

sentelink = {file://localhost/full/path/to/file.pdf,Sente,PDF}

New JabRef:

file = {Description of the file:/full/path/to/file.pdf:PDF}

and probably many others.
