Bookends 15.2.2

Originally published at: Bookends 15.2.2 - TidBITS

Sonny Software has released Bookends 15.2.2, featuring a new Apple-related AI feature for the reference management tool. If a unique identifier isn’t found when importing reference metadata from Bookends Browser, Bookends will use Apple Intelligence’s on-device model to extract metadata from the page. The release also enables you to create a separate bibliography for each chapter (section) when using the native Word scan, improves native Word unscanning, fully renders HTML attachments in the attachments pane, treats files saved from Bike with the extension .bike as HTMLl in the attachment views, improves database integrity diagnostics, addresses a regression that prevented Bookends from launching on Macs running macOS 13 Ventura or macOS 14 Sonoma, fixes a bug that prevented Web pages from being converted to PDFs, and resolves an issue with some native Word scans that could cause the scan to stop with an error.
