Re: Superb improvement of Journal Glossary

I think I mistakenly assumed the following words to have something to do with importing references into my own custom glossary, that’s why I asked. “For me, the biggest improvement is the massive increase in journals the Medline glossary, which now contains over 19000 journals, compared to a bit ove...

Re: The Bookends Guide to the SBL format

For those working with BibLaTeX, the second edition of the SBL style is updated and well maintained by David Purton on GitHub. https://github.com/dcpurton/biblatex-sbl This means you would use BE only to build the Bib file with Format Manager. All the rest is compiled automatically in LaTeX. No mor...

Re: Superb improvement of Journal Glossary

For a future version it would be nice if we could import abbreviations into our own glossaries

Superb improvement of Journal Glossary

Version 15 brings a welcome search feature to journal glossary. Thank you! I was missing that. I notice that one has to choose a column sort by clicking the bar prior to using search. For next version a global search on the glossary would be an added convenience, without having to sort a column. But...

Re: Bookends 14.1.7: Citekeys

It is important not to use accent marks or symbols in the citekey due to the nature of LaTeX and Biber. As an alternative, you could create a field that will help you classify or organize your references with non-roman characters. For example, in the reference below I have two fields (SBLHS and FMT)...

Re: Problems with macros in Bookends 14.2.7

I’m using two keyboard maestro macros without a problem. These macros I built to generate a bib file for LaTeX from a selected static folder.

Re: No Journal Glossary update for BibTex files

Jon wrote: Mon Feb 19, 2024 11:03 am In addition to what I told you, only references that were modified since the last "sync" are updated. Changing the glossary doesn't modify any references. You'd have to remove the old .bib file and recreate it.

Re: No Journal Glossary update for BibTex files

If you edit an entry in the journal glossary but not in the reference itself, Bookends may see them as matching anymore. The glossary can be used when entering journal names manually (an abbreviation defined by you is expanded to the short or full journal name). But it's main use is for formatting....

Re: No Journal Glossary update for BibTex files

How are you using the glossary to be able to make these changes exactly? I probably don't understand exactly the ins and outs, but i thought the glossary files only worked when editing a reference to add to the database or generating a finished bibliography? Then again bibtex is exported using a fo...

No Journal Glossary update for BibTex files

My Sync Linked Bibtex File does not seem to update changes made in my Journal Glossary file. I removed some white spaces and Sync does not seem to register the changes. The other fields are updating fine so far.
