Downloads a .xpi file (0.5 MB). In Zotero, open Tools → Plugins and install it from the file.
In useAn estimate of how many copies of Zotero have it: Zotero downloads each new version once for every copy that has the plugin, so we count the downloads of its most-downloaded recent release. Rounded. Plugins that update from outside GitHub count low.
39
DownloadsAll-time downloads of its release files from GitHub, counting every update. Installs from elsewhere aren't counted.

Opens an English paper as a sentence-aligned bilingual page in Chinese and English, with side by side, stacked and single-language views. Translation uses an OpenAI-compatible API or a local agent command line, and MinerU is optional for formulas.
Reading papers in a second language is slow with copy and paste. This keeps both languages aligned and links highlights to the PDF as Zotero annotations. It needs Zotero 10.
