Data exchange with other publication management systems#
If you have stored your data with a common literature program you can export them to PUMA import entries from PUMA to your program. Please note that the start configuration of PUMA allows only to import 20 data sets. To load more data or the complete database you should go this way: Start the PUMA homepage, login and click at the user menu on "settings". Then choose the tab "settings". Now you can change the amount of data sets to import at each transaction under the title "layout of your tag box and post lists" in the field "items per page".
