You can add my support for putting Bookends into a package. Whether or not it moves to Cocoa or stays as Carbon is something I'll leave to far more knowledgeable users than I ... but I've grown really fond of packaged applications. I don't really know why, but I just think it's so much nicer, certai...

Actually, I've just discovered that Bookends is handling the author names for Journal Articles correctly, but not the other reference types I've got in this document, namely: books, book chapters, and internet ... even though the author name options for every reference type in my "Citations&quo...

Author options for custom in-text citations

Hi there, Bookends experts I hope I can explain this adequately. I'm having a slight issue when trying to use custom in-text citations, which need to be slightly different to my bibliography entries in a few ways: 1. in-text citations use commas in some places where the bibliography has full-stops (...

No problem, I'm quite comfortable with your reasoning.

But I hope you remain willing to put up with lots of questions I shouldn't really be asking ... until I get more familiar with both the program *and* the manual, that is! ;-)

Thanks again

Hi Jon Thanks so much for that, it's just what I was looking for! And I'm really sorry that I wasted your time, although I do appreciate your help. I feel like a bit of an idiot, in fact. I *did* look in the book, I promise! But it's not the first time I was unable to find what I was after until bei...

Formatting page numbers in citations

Hi there, Bookends gurus I hope my question is going to make sense! I'd like to know if there's any way to get Bookends to process the formatting for page numbers that I've entered into a citation inserted into the document. I have been putting page numbers in the reference citation in Mellel using ...

Re: Short Title instead of "op. cit."?

Thanks, Jon. Sorry about the confusion about the "ibid, op cit" situation ... it was a few weeks ago that I gave Bookends a tryout, and I'd forgotten the exact details, other than that I couldn't figure out how to get exactly what I wanted. But I'll give your suggestion a try when I get a ...

Short Title instead of "op. cit."?

Hi, sorry to bother you, but I tried out a demo version of Bookends and was quite impressed, but I couldn't work out how to do one teensy little thing that is very important to me, and without which I will stick with EndNote ... In EndNote, I can format my citations to use the data in the "Shor...
