Missing page numbers on scanning

[grebmar]

I am scanning a Mellel document, using the Chicago 15th A Style. In the list view, the citation looks fine. But when I scan, journal articles are missing the page numbers. Cited pages show up, but not the full pagination (on first citation). The format looks like this:

a, "t," f, v$, no. $i` `(d): p-`.`

That is, the p- part shows up in list view and in the formats manager just fine, but on scanning, it disappears.

Is there something I am missing in the format here?

When you use cited pages, Bookends suppresses any other use of pages (this is a [requested] feature, not a bug). If you want Bookends to output both the page range of the article and the cited page, don't use cited pages, use quoted text, e.g.

{Smith, 2010, #1232323\, p. 13\}

Thank you. I guess this means I will need to retype all my citations in. Do I need to then leave the cited pages fields blank in the citation format?

Is it at all possible to make this a choice in the format? It seems to me that suppressing full pagination is not desirable for a lot of formats.

You don't need retype your citations. You'd just have to edit the ones with cited pages (of course that could be all of your citations I suppose).

Sure that's possible, but I don't want to fill up the UI with lots of rarely-used preferences or options. No one has asked for this before. What do others reading this thread think? Do you need citations (or footnotes) that contain the reference's page range when you specify a cited page?

Another question. I did go through and replace the cited pages for the journals, but I left the book citations with the @ symbol. I scanned it , and it worked, but unscanning replaced all the @ symbols in the books with the quoted text. Do all citations need to be in the same format?

Also, I put in "pp." for multiple page citations, but on unscanning, it replaced them all with "p." again. For all the references (books and articles).

This is getting frustrating!

When Bookends unscans, it reverts to whatever the temporary citation used. Did you edit the temp citations, or did you edit the post-scan citations? If you edited the latter, your edits will be lost when you unscan.
