Re: [Bibdesk-users] Finding or customising styles
Am Freitag, 5. August 2011 schrieb Sebastian 273...@googlemail.com: Hi there, I am a bloody beginner with LaTex and BibDesk and want to write my doctoral thesis in LaTex (if I manage to make this work!) For my field (Theology in Germany) I need a bibliography style that produces a full reference in a footnote and in the bibliography. If you're just getting started with LaTeX now, I would strongly suggest you look at the BibLaTeX package (installed as standard in TeX Live, and possibly MikTeX). It is being actively developed (which jurabib, iirc, is not), has a detailed manual, and if it doesn't have the exact style you need ( and it might, I haven't checked), it is reputed to be easier to customize than plain BibTeX is. -- BlackBerryreg; DevCon Americas, Oct. 18-20, San Francisco, CA The must-attend event for mobile developers.

Re: [Bibdesk-users] Encoding double-quotes and accented chars in the .bib file?
Am 29.12.2010 um 19:37 schrieb Charles Turner: So that would be the double quotes around recherche musicale in the Title field. Is it correct to think that I'm getting this warning because double-quotes are reserved in Bibtex? I believe so, yes. It has nothing to do with the character encoding of the file, right? right. So I need to represent the double-quotes as two single-quotes: '' , correct? Maybe. I suppose you could use the LaTeX convention (or crutch), like so: ``recherche musicale’’; however, (the rules for) quotes are language-sensitive, i.e. quotes look differently in German, French or English, and the rules whether or not to include spaces differ as well. My French is lousy, but I believe the typographically proper way to enquote the title would be « recherche musicale » . I use the csquotes package to ensure the typographically correct quotes every time. It’s written by Philipp Lehman, who is also the author of biblatex, so the two packages ought to work together perfectly (particularly since biblatex has the »hyphenation« field, which can trigger all sorts of adjustments in the bib entry, including, well, hyphenation, but also abbreviations and quote marks).

Re: [Bibdesk-users] Import from Zotero?
2010/5/7 Derek Van Ittersum derek.vanitter...@gmail.com I ended up solving the problem through exporting the data from zotero in a different manner. Instead of right-clicking on the My Library and choosing export, I selected all the entries in the main window, right-clicked, and chose export selected references. The resulting file opened without complaint in Bibdesk. Hurray! derek Could your problem be a byte-order mark? While I'm fuzzy on the details of what that actually does, I know that UTF8-encoded documents can come in two flavors, UTF-8 and UTF-8 no BOM. I've had warnings about that, but never any actual problems that I can recall. Re.: Zotero -- Are you aware of George MacKerrons's Zot2Bib? ( http://mackerron.com/zot2bib/) I haven't used Zotero in a while, but I remember being quite impressed with Zot2Bib (which targets BibDesk specifically, rather than generic BibTeX). -- Gerrit. -- ___ Bibdesk-users mailing list Bibdesk-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bibdesk-users
Re: [Bibdesk-users] Is the Custom BibTeX Fields Pane Supposed to Be Scrollable? -- False Alarm...
Am 24.04.2009 um 23:09 schrieb Gerrit Glabbart: Hey everybody, in my attempt to adapt BibDesk for Biblatex I want to add a number of new, Biblatex-specific fields as default. I'm having difficulty doing this, though, because the 'Custom BibTeX Fields' Pane in the Preferences has no scroll bar. The screenshot in BibDesk's Help does, however, show a scroll bar. Is anyone else seeing this, or is this a problem particular to my setup? Thanks, Gerrit. Sorry for the noise, folks. Clicking on the add-button also added the scroll bar. I'm still mildly curious why it wasn't there to begin with, but I'm sure that will soon pass! ;) G. -- Crystal Reports #45; New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensign option that enables unlimited royalty#45;free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects ___ Bibdesk-users mailing list Bibdesk-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bibdesk-users
Re: [Bibdesk-users] Intro / biblatex
Am 29.01.2009 um 04:26 schrieb Sam Russell: One frustration I had with BibDesk was the pain in changing entry headings to match biblatex's recommended values. Until I sat down with the Typeinfo.plist file and manually edited it. Would anyone else be interested in a copy made up to biblatex / playing around with it? Wouldn't this make a good entry for the wiki? I've only dipped my toes into biblatex (if you forgive me that metaphor) so far, but yes, I am interested, and I'm guessing there must be a number of people who are interested and who don't know it yet (jurabib users come to mind, considering that project's current hiatus).
