Description

Replaces em dashes with regular hyphens in Google Scholar .bib entries. This extension fixes a common formatting issue with .bib citations downloaded from Google Scholar. It automatically replaces em dashes (—) with regular hyphens (-) in the BibTeX entry. This prevents Overleaf and other LaTeX tools from getting stuck or showing errors when compiling BibTeX files. Simply install the extension, and visit any .bib citation link from Google Scholar — the formatting will be silently corrected.
