Re: Editing bibliography to something non-standard

This is very strange! It doesn't seem to work with my installation. I have sent you a screen video via WeTransfer.com.

Re: Editing bibliography to something non-standard

Many thanks for the quick fix of the subject bibliography! I was wondering if it would be possible to also add "Smart Groups" if the subject criterion is "Groups". Only "Static Groups" are currently offered.

Re: Editing bibliography to something non-standard

Jon, you totally got what I was saying! I think the subject bibliography is exactly what I'm looking for! But I'm really not sure if I'm missing something. I've put together a quick screen movie to show you what I'm talking about: https://www.dropbox.com/t/s9cARdLP59myijeQ 1. When I create a regular...

Re: Editing bibliography to something non-standard

I’m revisiting this older topic and I would like your assistance. For a regulatory document, I need to compile two separate bibliographies within a single document: one bibliography for literature found using specific search terms and another for additional publications known to the author. Is this ...

Highlight all matching words of a live search

It might be possible to offer a drawer on the side rather than on the bottom, but although drawers work in Carbon apps (see Internet Search), there are some interface glitches I don't like. So I'm not keen on this (for other reasons as well). As for highlighting results -- I'm not sure of what you ...

Re: A dot at the end of a title leads to double dots in the bibliography

It would be preferable to illustrate this issue with an example. Within the Bookends library DemoLibrary.bdb, there are two references imported from distinct databases: https://file.io/TnzwriKPyYPb The reference by Baird et al. was retrieved from EMBASE in RIS format. The reference by Bergmeister et...

Re: A dot at the end of a title leads to double dots in the bibliography

The problem is that references imported from PubMed have a trailing dot, references imported from EMBASE do not. If I remove the dot in bibliography format, it is missing in EMBASE references. I would like to find an option that respects both title formats or find a simple solution to remove the dot...

A dot at the end of a title leads to double dots in the bibliography

Hi Jon, The titles of a PubMed search are imported with a trailing dot. This leads to double dots in bibliography formats, if the title is separated from the following information with a dot. The automatic replacement of duplicate characters when one or more fields are missing obviously does not wor...

Creation of a bibliography not at the end of the document

I have a large Word document with a long appendix with several chapters. The sections of the appendix also appear in the automatically generated table of contents. I would like to place the bibliography before the appendix. Is this possible?

Re: [Feature Request] Automatically Apply Word Paragraph Template When Scanning

Unfortunately, Word does not preserve the assigned paragraph style (Bookends 14.2 -- Word 16.73). The style sheet is always reset to "Normal + Left 0cm, Hanging: 0.95cm, After: 0pt, Line spacing: single". In addition, the Word Bookends add-in always adds one additional carriage return at t...

[Feature Request] Automatically Apply Word Paragraph Template When Scanning

It would be great if Bookends could automatically apply a custom paragraph template to the citations in the biography when running "Word > Bookends > Scan Document" from Word.

Re: [Feature Request] Helpful Features for BibTeX Users

I found another tiny issue. Institutions are not exported correctly. For example, an author like "European Commission," (with a comma after the last character) is exported as author = {European Commission}, It should be exported as author = {{European Commission}}, Or is this again somethi...
