An advantage of using Zotero for referencing in text, is that it is very easy to replace a chosen output style by another.
If you are going to offer a manuscript to a different journal than originally intended and this journal requires a different style, adapting the manuscript can be very easy.
In the previous section we added some references to a text according to the APA 7th style.
This is one of the best known Author/Date styles.
A lot of styles also work with numbers in the text and a numbered reference list.
Now we are going to change the text of the previous section (which was written according to the APA style) into a text with a numbered output style.
The text in the previous section which was written according to the APA 7h style, looked like this:

Journal impact factors vary from year to year. Therefore it is more reliable to use impact factors of several years instead if just one year. Research has shown that review articles receive more citations than research articles (Moed & van Leeuwen, 1995). Journals with many review articles can therefore more easily get a high impact factor than journals with many research articles. Recently a discussion has started about the use of impact factors in research evaluation because the Internet has led to new forms of publication (Moed, 2006; Zhao, 2005). REFERENCES Moed, H. F. (2006). New developments in citation analysis and research evaluation. Information Services & Use, 26(1), 135-137. Moed, H. F., & van Leeuwen, T. N. (1995).

We will now change the citations in this text according to the numbered output style Vancouver.
To do this, we proceed as follows. Go to Document Preferences in the Zotero tab in Microsoft Word and click it.
We go to the Word document mentioned above.
There we change from APA 7th edition to Vancouver and click OK
Now your references in your Word-document will look like this:
