A colleague has sent me a docx file containing a text and a bibliography, the text has references to the bibliography appearing as [1] on a gray background. However, these references appear to be treated as plain text by LibreOffice with my linux box.
I presume the bibliography is handled by EndNote on my colleague's apple computer. The only relevant link I've found makes a suggestion but there is no reply whether this worked for anyone.
I'm looking for some way to generate/convert the document that I can suggest to my colleague so that (1) the cross-references are not lost for him if I edit the text and send back the document without editing bibliography, or even better (2) I can access the bibliography.

A search for "endnote libreoffice" brings up a number of links about using an extension, for example here.

@JimK: it doesn't seem there's any answer to the question I'm asking with the keywords you suggest. – Joce – 2017-08-01T07:23:48.853
Probably not; I originally thought you had EndNote installed and were using Windows. Any chance you could ask your colleague to switch to something like Zotero instead, which works on Linux?
