Using abbreviated journal titles
 The ACS no title style uses abbreviated
journal titles but Endnote doesn’t know
what these are.
 You need to import a journal titles list
which includes all the ACS standard
abbreviations in order for your
references to display properly.

automatically use the abbreviated
journal title if it is available.

documents using ACS or ACS-no title, you
will need to use the ‘update citations and
bibliography’ function from within Word
for the abbreviated titles to appear.
