BibexPy — V2 Helium

Format Converter (Standalone Tool)

Convert a single file between bibliographic formats without creating a project — handy for ad-hoc conversions or files you've edited manually in Excel.

Open it from the home screen: Tools → Format Converter.

How it works

  1. Upload one file (drag & drop). Accepted: .txt (WoS), .csv, .tsv, .xlsx — up to ~100 MB.
  2. Pick the source format (what the file is): WoS plain text, Scopus CSV, Excel, plain CSV or TSV.
  3. Pick the target format (what you want): WoS, VOSviewer TSV, BibTeX, RIS, Excel, CSV or TSV.
  4. Download the converted file.

WoS / VOSviewer outputs are .txt

Both targets produce ISI-style tagged plain text with the proper .txt extension — VOSviewer and Biblioshiny read them directly.

Need merging or cleanup?

The converter translates formats only. For deduplication, filtering and harmonization, create a project and use the 5-step pipeline.
