Re: Need Immediat Help - Citation Conversion

Never mind; false alert; sorry :) I just forgot the highlighting doesn't print. I guess it's been a while!

Need Immediat Help - Citation Conversion

Ok. I scanned my Mellel document using Bookends. Now all of my citations are highlighted in purple! Is this a Mellel or a BookEnds issue? How do I fix? I need to submit my paper and this is the first time this has happened.

Re: Missing Period in Publisher Field

Ok. It was an issue with my code. Now my code looks like (in part):

` (`l: u~,~ d;$ reprint, $u12`).`

Jon, just so I understand, why is the binding of the comma necessary to preserve the period?

Thanks.
Jim

Missing Period in Publisher Field

I need to enter "n.p." in the publisher field because a book I am referencing does not include the information. However, when I check the format, BE is showing ...(London: n.p, 1696). The key here is the period is being removed. I am fairly certain there is a setting for this but I cannot ...

Re: Abbreviations List

Thanks Jon. That was very helpful. Surprisingly (or perhaps not), Apple's Numbers (08) could not open the Journal Glossary, but MS Excel would (2007 in Fusion). Still, this will save me a lot of typing. Thanks again for the tip.

Abbreviations List

I need to create an abbreviations list for my thesis which lists all of the abbreviations for Journals, Series, etc., that are used in the thesis. I am using the SBL Journal Glossary for abbreviations, but I do not need the entire list. Is there an easy way to generate a list of abbreviations used i...

Re: Turabian Formatting Glitch? -Solved?

I have amended the majority of the formats on account of missing fields, like you said. What is the best way for me to send them to you? Some steps on how-to would be helpful. Thanks. Jim

Re: Turabian Footnote Glitch 2 Lack of Space before "And Others"

Thanks, Jon. Perhaps I changed this at some point and I forgot or didn't realize it. All is well now. Thanks again.

Turabian Footnote Glitch 2 Lack of Space before "And Others"

In the Turabian Footnotes format, when the bibliography option "and others" is chosen from the Bibliography Format - Bibliography Options menu, no space is inserted between the editor's name and the phrase "and others." I do not recall this being a problem with previous versions....

Turabian Formatting Glitch? -Solved?

Ok. I previously posted about a comma before the parenthesis in the book format for the Turabian Footnotes format. The standard BE code looks like : a, t,$, ed. $e, $, ed. $u1~,~ $trans. $u3*~, ~u2~ ed.~`, `u13~ vols.~|~ ~f|~, vol. ~v` (`l: u, d;$ reprint, $u12`).` The output looks like this: Henri ...

Re: Turabian--footnotes versus biblio

Thank you so very much for your assistance, Jon. After looking up "format window" in the user guide (sorry, I am learning the names of the various windows in several programs at once), I found the Citation tab with ease. This has solved my problem! Thank you again for your very timely resp...
