Hello, May I hope to have a solution to the problem mentioned in point 2, about interference of meaning of symbols used for superscript and conditional formatting? By the way, the User Guide that is referred to in the Help Menu of version 2.7.8 is still the user guide of version 2.7.7 (with the erro...

I think your last point will be implemented in the next update. Thanks. Is it my last point about not excluding the first letter of last name under /scaps format (even if the first letter is still visualized as full cap) or the issue in my last post about applying small caps also to institution nam...

Hello, Another question about small caps when I choose "small cap surname" for the authors or editors in the Format Manager, it does not apply it to the name of institutions (followed by a comma). Since "small cap surname" somehow means "put the main part of the full name in...

Hello, I suppose this difficulty is mainly about the first point about "Copy formatted" I don’t understand why it would be more complicated not making this exception for the first letter. So, may I hope my second point (about applying the code for Small Caps to the whole word and not excep...

Hello, 1- In the Bookends User Guide for version 12.7.7, on page 264, in the section "Superscript & subscript", I can read: The symbols you may use are: Superscript: ^, @, or ~ In the Bookends Preferences, "Scan and Bib" pane, the symbols that I can choose from the "Supe...

Hello, In a previous post about Small Caps, after having noticed the improvement already done about Small Caps, I also suggested further im improvements: - having the same \scaps format applied also for bibliography and "Copy formatted"; - having the \scaps format applied to the whole word...

The half-width fields can only be moved together. There are both programmatic and UI reasons for this. Jon Sonny Software Hello, This limit of arranging half-width fields make this feature useless for all the users who need to move those fields. I hope the editability of fields order will soon be a...

Hello, Rearranging field order is a much welcome new feature, that I have been waiting for. It is particularly useful when one enter data manually. So, thanks a lot for having implemented it. Let me suggest to enhance again the flexibility of the UI. 1- Now we can’t move separately the fields that a...

Hello, I apologize for not having noticed the real improvement. I hadn’t checked scanning a temporary citation, but I rather used "Copy formatted", thinking that it would give the same result. But it did not. Now, I checked for citations, in primary and secondary order, for bibliography, a...

Hello, As soon as I saw "Improved small cap handling in Word and Nisus Writer Pro citations" in the Update history for version 12.0.6 of Bookends, I checked whether Bookends finally implement Small Caps in MS Word as, in my opinion, it should do. I find bad formatting having 2 different fo...

How many other people have to fix style violations manually due to this (relatively minor, I admit) limitation? I would appreciate such a feature. I’m now working on a long MS Word document (as I have to do quite often) and it would be immediately useful in various cases. I want to keep the documen...

Hello,

I can confirm that this metacharacter to suppress author and title would be useful to me. It is quite frequent in the styles used in Europe.
Thanks

Hello, On page 312 of Bookends 11.3.3 User Guide, I can read: "If the reference has an ISBN and no pmid or doi, Bookends will use the ISBN to find the book on Amazon.com." I would suggest to extend this search capabilities to other sources, at least Amazon.it, Amazon.fr and so on. I’m usin...

Hi Jon, I'm using BE 11.3.2. When I use "Copy Notecard And Citation" for a notecard that has citation, the cited pages are not included in the citation. It seems that in order that cited pages are included, the indication of the cited pages (beginning with @) should be on the firs line of ...

Hello John, I just sent (through automatic error reporting) a problem that happened when I was using the feature "Show with Chapters". Since you might be looking in the workings of this feature, I take the occasion to tell about an extension of it that would be practical: extend this featu...
