In   There was an example of using Bibilography:  \begin{thebibliography}{9} \bibitem{latexcompanion}  Michel Goossens, Frank Mittelbach, and Alexander Samarin.  \textit{The \LaTeX\ Companion}.  Addison-Wesley, Reading, Massachusetts, 1993.  \bibitem{einstein}  Albert Einstein.  \textit{Zur Elektrodynamik bewegter K{\"o}rper}. (German)  [\textit{On the electrodynamics of moving bodies}].  Annalen der Physik, 322(10):891–921, 1905.  \bibitem{knuthwebsite}  Knuth: Computers and Typesetting, \\\texttt{http://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/\~{}uno/abcde.html} \end{thebibliography}   What does {9} do here? As explained in the article: A parameter inside braces, 9 in the example, indicates the number of entries to be added; this parameter can not be greater than 99.  However, in a previous document with over 50 citations/entries. I only needed to do {1} and not {50}. Can someone solve this contradiction to me?

I was reading the explanation about  and was totally confused:     The thebibliography environment has an argument which should be a string at least the length of the widest entry label in the source list. Instead of using the numbers generated by the environment as entry labels, you can specify your own by using an optional argument to \bibitem, but remember to increase the length of the argument to the thebibliography command.    What does "widest entry label" mean? Practically, what should I put as the argument in   \begin{thebibliography}{?}   or is the argument not necessary?

I've almost figured out how to cite a multi-volume book (as per ). I've separated it into 3 entities - and then used Set to put it into bibliography.  @Book{Boncompagni_2_vol,   author="Boncompagni, Baldassarre",   title="Scritti di Leonardo Pisano matematico del secolo decimoterzo.",   address="Roma",    publisher="Tipografia delle scienze matematiche e fisiche",   date={1857/1862},   volumes = {2},   note="(in Lat.)" } @Book{Boncompagni_vol_1,   volume = {I},   title="Leonardi Pisani, Liber Abbaci = Il Liber Abbaci di Leonardo Pisano.",   date={1857},   pagetotal={459}, } @Book{Boncompagni_vol_2,   volume={II},   title= "Leonardi Pisani Practica geometriae ed opuscoli = La Practica Geometriae di Leonardo Pisano; Opuscoli di Leonardo Pisano.",   date={1862},   pagetotal={283}, }  @Set{Boncompagni_collection,   entryset={Boncompagni_2_vol, Boncompagni_vol_1, Boncompagni_vol_2}, }   However, the problem is that now I have 4 references showing up - 3 originals and 1 set. I've used the \nocite{*} to always show all references.  Is there a way to hide only 3 of those references while printing everything else?  EDIT: Well it seems that by using @Set I automatically get all the individual entries hidden. So this question itself is wrong. But it still applies if the @Set is not present.

I am building a bibliography using biblatex and biber (\usepackage[backend=biber,minnames=2,backref,firstinits,sortcites]{biblatex}) with a lot of cited papers. Therefore I often have the case of a journal name, volume, issue, month and year, all necessary.   Now the strange thing is, if I have a bibitem such as:  @article{item,   title = {Some Nice Scientific Title},   author = {Doe, Jane},   journal = {Important Journal},   volume = {50},   issue = {20},   pages = {1877--1879},   year = {1984},   month = {Jun},   publisher = {Important Society},   doi = {00.0000} }   the bibliography looks like this:    Can you spot it? The issue number 20 is in the brackets with the date. Now it looks like it is the day in the date.  So, how do I get around this?  Here's the full MWE:  \documentclass{scrartcl}  \usepackage[backend=biber,minnames=2,backref,firstinits,sortcites]{biblatex}  \usepackage{filecontents} \begin{filecontents}{item.bib}   @article{item,     title = {Some Nice Scientific Title},     author = {Doe, Jane},     journal = {Important Journal},     volume = {50},     issue = {20},     pages = {1877--1879},     year = {1984},     month = {Jun},     publisher = {Important Society},     doi = {00.0000}   } \end{filecontents}  \addbibresource{item.bib}  \begin{document}  \printbibliography[title = {References},heading=bibintoc] \nocite{*}  \end{document}

So for a report my teacher gave us exact prerequisite for the layout. He wants in text footnote citations in the author-year style and the bibliography in  the APA (5th) style. EDIT: The reference list should be numberd and sorted according to the appearence and I think corresponding to the footnote number.  Because I do not want to merge 5 .doc (MS Word) files from my group members and format everything in MS Word I need to get this to work in LaTeX.  Currently I am trying to get this to work with biblatex and Biber, but the combination of the two styles turns out to be very difficult to me. I am not set on biblatex. So, if it can be done with BibTeX or whatever, that is fine.

My bibtex style outputs      Newton, S. I. Opticks, or a treatise of the reflections, refractions,   inflections and colours of light [Text] / Sir Isaac Newton. [S. l.],   1730. 382 p. Google Books : XXu4AkRVBBoC.   for the following BibTeX entry  @BOOK{IsaacNewton, author = {Newton, Sir Isaac}, title = {Opticks, or a treatise of the reflections, refractions, inflections and colours of light}, publisher = {William Innys}, url = {http://books.google.com/books?id=XXu4AkRVBBoC}, year = {1730}, numpages = {382}, eprint = {XXu4AkRVBBoC}, eprinttype = {Google Books}, }   How should I change the field   author = {Newton, Sir Isaac},   obtain something reasonable rather than Newton, S. I.? Note that second occurrence of Newton's name (Sir Isaac Newton) is correct.  Incidentally, what would be the correct address: "Sir Isaac" or "Sir Newton"?

I'm using  bibstyle=alphabetic, maxnames=3,. minnames=2, maxalphanames=1,    In one section, I have some citations I wish to \fullcite. For these, I'd like to have every author listed (annoyingly, they contain between 4 and 9 authors). If I set maxnames higher, \citet makes the in-text citation difficult to read in the rest of the document.   Can I set maxnames for a specific section of the document, then change it back later?     Here's a MWE, showing the \fullcite that does not list all author names. In this example, the behaviour of \citet is good, but I want to increase maxnames as indicated.    \documentclass{article}  \usepackage{filecontents} \begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib} @article{A+04,   author = {Author, Aa and Buthor, Bb and Cuthor, Cc and Duthor, Dd},   title = {Title},   journal = {Journal title},   year = {2001},   volume = {1},   number = {2},   pages = {101--109},   month = jan,   note = {This is an article entry}, } @article{A+02,   author = {Author, Aa and Buthor, Bb},   title = {Title},   journal = {Journal title},   year = {2001},   volume = {1},   number = {2},   pages = {101--109},   month = jan,   note = {This is an article entry}, } @article{A+03,   author = {Author, Aa and Buthor, Bb and Cuthor, Cc},   title = {Title},   journal = {Journal title},   year = {2001},   volume = {1},   number = {2},   pages = {101--109},   month = jan,   note = {This is an article entry}, } \end{filecontents}  \usepackage[bibstyle=alphabetic,maxnames=3,minnames=2,maxalphanames=1,natbib=true]{biblatex} \addbibresource{\jobname.bib}  \begin{document}  \section{Fullcite} % I want to increase maxnames here somehow: % maxnames=10 \fullcite{A+04} % and then I want to drop it again for the rest of the document.  % maxnames=3  \section{In-text} \citet{A+04} says interesting things.  \citet{A+02} says other things.   \citet{A+03} disagree. \end{document}

My goal is adding more than one author with different affiliations, it will look like something:  Author A, Author B, Author C, Author D and Author E        A,B,C Department of Computer Science       D,E Department of Mechanical Engineering          Email A,B,C,D,E @university.edu                  Latex University   is that possible to do it without using any packages, if not packages are welcome.  Thanks  Edit: i came up with Thorsten Donig's solution however i have the problem of symbols that appear weirdly.

I am trying to learn how to use bibtex. I found this  and created two files:  % Untitled.tex  \documentclass[12pt]{article} \usepackage{natbib}  \begin{document}  \title{BibTeX in action} \author{Martin J. Osborne} \date{2008-1-13}  \maketitle  \section{Introduction} This document illustrates the use of BibTeX\@.  You may want to refer to \cite{ahu61} or \cite{ab94} or \cite{m85}.  Or you may want to cite a specific page in a reference, like this: see \citet[p.~199]{m85}.  Or perhaps you want to cite more than one paper by Maskin: \cite{m85, m99}. Or you want to make a parenthetical reference to one or more articles, in which case the \verb+\citealt+ in the \texttt{te.bst} bibliography style omits the parentheses around the year (\citealt{ahu61}).  \bibliographystyle{te}  \bibliography{bibl}  \end{document}  % bibl.bib @article{ahu61,        author={Arrow, Kenneth J. and Leonid Hurwicz and Hirofumi Uzawa},        title={Constraint qualifications in maximization problems},        journal={Naval Research Logistics Quarterly},        volume={8},        year = 1961,        pages = {175-191}      }  @book{ab94,        author = {Charalambos D. Aliprantis and Kim C. Border},        year = {1994},        title = {Infinite Dimensional Analysis},        publisher = {Springer},        address = {Berlin}      }  @incollection{m85,        author={Maskin, Eric S.},        year={1985},        title={The theory of implementation in {N}ash equilibrium: a survey},        booktitle={Social Goals and Social Organization},        editor={Leonid Hurwicz and David Schmeidler and Hugo Sonnenschein},        pages={173-204},        publisher={Cambridge University Press},        addess={Cambridge}      }   Now the question arises what should I do with them?  I didn't find any manual for BibTex with TexWorks.  I compiling Untitled.tex into pdfLaTeX and see ? instead of citations. I compiling bibl.bib into BibTeX and see error   I couldn't open file name `bibl.aux'.

I am writing my CV in LaTeX. I am using biblatex and want my name (and only my name) to be bold for every reference. Is there a magic way to do this?  A similar question  was asked, but that answer used BibTeX. While I use the BibTeX backend, I use biblatex.  Any suggestions?

I need two bib-like sections: a "References" giving works explicitly cited in my text, and a "Bibliography" (or "Further reading" if you prefer) giving everything from my bibfile that didn't already appear in "References". The first is of course completely standard, but the second... I'm stumped.  Further loose constraints: I'm somewhat committed to biblatex and the biblatex-apa style. But I'll happily accept an answer not related to them if there's any chance I can adapt it.

Can someone please explain in a clear and concise way how am I supposed to enter the names of authors in a BibTeX file? I have entries with something like   @article{someid,    author = {Juan A. Navarro P\'erez, Ra\'ul de la Garza and Andr\'es Espinoza},    ...   but somehow the output seems kind of wrong!

The question I want to ask is related to the answer of this question:  .   My aim is to separate my bibliography into two parts : one part for a personnal bibliography, and a second one for the regular bibliography.  To do that, I use the technique of the post I cited :  \documentclass{article} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage[french]{babel} \usepackage[style=alphabetic,maxnames=6,natbib=true]{biblatex} \bibliography{biblatex-examples}  % Variants of each could be added \newcommand{\firstname}{Donald~E.} \newcommand{\lastname}{Knuth}  \DeclareBibliographyCategory{byname}  \DeclareIndexNameFormat{byname}{% Test could be refined   \ifboolexpr{ test {\ifdefstring{\lastname}{#1}}            and test {\ifdefstring{\firstname}{#3}}               } {\addtocategory{byname}{\thefield{entrykey}}} {}}  \AtDataInput{%   \indexnames[byname]{author}}  \begin{document}  \section{Knuth's books}  \begin{refsection}  \nocite{*}  \printbibliography[category=byname,heading=none]  \end{refsection}  \section{Not Knuth's books}  \printbibliography[notcategory=byname,heading=none] \end{document}   The problem is that only the second bibliography appears, and when I remove the refsection, then all the bibtex entries of my input files are printed, separated as they should.  EDIT: the aim is to have all publications (even the ones not cited) by author knuth in the first section and all the other cited publications in the second one.

I am constructing a bibliography of as much of the prior research in a field I am working in. I would like to use BibTeX to print the citation in the pdf, and then I would like to add the details of the paper after the citation. Only then would I like to print the next citation. For example:  [1] Jahan M. Dawlaty and Yunquing Chen. Measurement of the optical absorption of graphene in the terahertz. Applied Physics Letters, 2008. Research Group: Cornell Pump Wavelength: 500 nm. Probe Wavelenth: 7 microns. Relaxation Time: 50 fs. [2] Paul George and Dmitry Vekslar, Measurement of Ultrafast Carrier Dynamics in Graphene. Applied Physics Letters, 2009.  . . . and so on. Does anyone know how this could be done?

I wrote a text using :  \documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{report},  and \begin{thebibliography}{99}.   Now I have to change and use ''bibtex''. I am completely unfamiliar with bibtex, What is a simple way that I can change it? ( what userpakage should I add ,... )

I have an old document written in LaTeX which I need to edit/re-write. The document has hundreds of citations without using BibTex but just old style thebibliography environment and \bibitem's. Now I would like to re-use the old bibliographic references and add new ones but using BibTex. Is there a way I can re-use my old references? The thing that comes to mind is a script or something which translates \bibitem's entry and put them into BibTex format, but any solution is welcome. By the way, a (admittedly superficial) search on google and stack exchange did not provide any solution.

I'm using Jabref to manage my Bibliography.  Sometimes, I put directly:     First Author et al.   when adding the article author's name in Jabref.  When compiling my .tex file, LaTeX doesn't recognize the et. al as more names. It takes it as a name/surname.  This is an example of a Bibliography entry in Jabref.  @ARTICLE{Wolf2003,     author = {Wolf, K.et al.},     title = {Compensation mechanism in tumor cell migration: mesenchymal–amoeboid     transition after blocking of pericellular proteolysis},     journal = {J. Cell Biol.},     year = {2003},     volume = {160},     pages = {267–277},    }   This is a .texMWE with the bib entry mentioned:  \documentclass[11pt]{book}   \usepackage{cite}   \bibliographystyle{unsrt} \begin{document}   Here is the bib entry mentioned\cite{Wolf2003}    \bibliography{bibfile}  \end{document}   Here's the output:   How can I solve this problem?

Thank you in advance. So apparently I spent a lot of time editing Citavi styles to find out I cannot use them in LATEX :D  What I need is a bibliography with several authors being in this order: last name, first name, last name, first name and first name last name -> instead of "and" an "und" would be great (german)  what I get in Bibliography:       what I need it to look like (created with Citavi):
