Harvard (Cite Them Right) to ACS FAQ

What changes between Harvard (Cite Them Right) and ACS?

ACS in text: This generator renders the numeric variant, with references numbered in citation order. Reference-list formatting differs too, which is why each entry is re-rendered from its real record with the official ACS style file rather than text-edited.

Why did some references not convert?

A reference only converts when it can be confidently matched to a catalog record. Journal articles match very well; books and web pages without a DOI match less often. Unmatched entries are listed untouched, never guessed at.

Is my reference list stored?

No. The conversion is stateless and pasted text is never logged. Only anonymous match-rate counts are kept.
