Joel Thanks, Joel, but that would mean a lot of writing, since I have many German references. What I do not understand is, that the reference seems to be ok: Article (Buenning1929b) Bünning, E. Über die thermonastischen und thigmonastischen Blütenbewegungen Planta, 1929, 8, 698-716 and same with the bibtex source: @Article{Buenning1929b, author = {Bünning, E.}, title = {\"{U}ber die thermonastischen und thigmonastischen {B}lütenbewegungen}, journal = {Planta}, year = {1929}, volume = {8}, pages = {698-716}, __markedentry = {[we:]}, owner = {matrox-suse}, } but the pdf output is still queer Wolfgang

References and Umlaute
I have difficulties with Umlaute in my references (see appended shot). I use Jabref 3.8.1 as a reference manager and Lyx 2.3.0, Debian stretch. Perhaps the newest Jabref can handle it, but I can't install it: we@wolfgang-Mr-Whisper-Ultra-SSD-II:~$ sudo apt install openjfx Paketlisten werden gelesen... Fertig Abhängigkeitsbaum wird aufgebaut. Statusinformationen werden eingelesen Fertig openjfx ist schon die neueste Version (8u141-b14-3~deb9u1). 0 aktualisiert, 0 neu installiert, 0 zu entfernen und 7 nicht aktualisiert.

But I would like to use a special style file. So biblatex is apparently not an alternative. Any idea what to do? Wolfgang
