ABNT Vancouver Converter

About This Tool

The ABNT Vancouver Converter accepts bibliographic inputs in ABNT field order and outputs a Vancouver-formatted reference. It operates as a rule-based formatter: map fields such as author, title, journal, year, volume, issue, and pages from ABNT conventions to Vancouver conventions; it handles multiple authors, editors, and corporate authors; normalizes punctuation and abbreviations; diacritics and non-ASCII characters are preserved. The tool is useful for researchers, students, and editors who prepare manuscripts requiring Vancouver-style references; its unique value lies in consistency, speed, and the ability to export to common reference managers. Core features include: structured input forms, deterministic formatting templates, author-list handling, optional DOIs, and export options (BibTeX, RIS). Use cases include turning a hand-typed ABNT reference into Vancouver, batch converting bibliographies, and pre-checking references for manuscript submissions. The tool differentiates itself by focusing specifically on ABNT-to-Vancouver conversion, with robust field mapping and error handling designed for Brazilian and international researchers who regularly switch styles.
