You need both. 1. Start the converter server. The quickest path uses uv (a Python tool installer); see Install the server for pipx and Docker alternatives that may suit you better. 2. Install the plugin. Download the latest .xpi file from the Releases page (if your browser tries to install it itself, right-click the link and choose \"Save Link As…\"). Then in Zotero: Tools → Plugins → ⚙ → Install Plugin From File… → pick the .xpi . 3. Connect them. In Zotero, open Settings → zotero-docling and click Test Connection — it should turn green. Then right-click any PDF in your library → Convert with Docling . [!NOTE] Your very first conversion downloads model weights and can take 2–10 minutes while appearing to hang — that's normal, and later conversions take seconds.
