Zotero + DevonThink - i thought i was gonna be clever but i think it's not possible

Zotero’s killer feature (at last competitively) is the ability to look up all manner of bibliographic information and attach it to every file in your research library.

The smart rule script Download Bibliographic Metadata is actually able to download & set certain metadata for documents having a digital object identifier (DOI).

Additional useful scripts can be found right here, e.g.

GoogleBooks Metadata Download

A script to download GoogleBooks metadata based on GoogleBook ID, ISBN, or record’s name. Inspired by the “Download DOI Metadata” script. Tuned for my setup, of course. It generates a tag per author, for example.

Script to look up PDF document metadata on crossref.org

I hate AppleScript. Really hate it. But I love Devonthink, and had an itch to scratch. This is somewhat similar to other scripts that do bibliographic lookups, but it uses crossref.org. Feedback, etc. welcome.
