Has anyone encountered a problem displaying page ranges that are broken, as is often the case for magazines. For example, in the page field, I've input the following for the bibliography:

27, 36-42 (the article is begins on page 27 and is continued on pp. 36-42)

Although I've selected the page range to be displayed in the format, the formatted bibliography outputs this data as follows:

27, 36-27, 42

Is this a bug, or have I missed something special I'm suppose to do to get this to display as I've input it into the page field?

Looks like a bug. I'll see what's happening...

FYI: It only seems to be happening in the reference type for Newspaper articles, which was one of the default types with BE. In the type I created for magazine, I don't seem to have this problem.

It happened because Bookends was trying to insert the "complete" second page (as called for in the format), and of course it is not a single number.

This will be fixed in the next update.

Hello Jon,
I’m running Bookends 11 and I have the same problem reported here (see below).
It seems that this bug has been reintroduced at some point after the fix announced then.
Thanks for checking this and keeping me informed.
