Hallo, I've started to add bibliography to my documents. Now I have some questions: 1. How can I handle multilanguage bibtex files (entries in German and English)? I'm writing english texts but I need to cite german documents and in all german references all capital letters are trasfered to small ones. 2. How to encode glyphs/german umlaute (öäüß) in the bibtex file? It seems that I can not use utf for that. 3. I have in the bibtex field: "comment = {genauere Analyse des Papers nötig!}," some comments. They are added at the end the individual reference. Is there a possibility to suppress this field? 4. is there a way of citing by bibtex key? (to get (Hameury2005) for the entry @ARTICLE{Hameury2005,...)). I think that is nice to have during writing the document and only to change this in the final version. Many thanks Wolfgang

These questions have nothing to do with ConTeXt, only with bibtex, which is still a seven-bit application, so you can't use anything outside ASCII. On Dec 2, 2005, at 1:03 PM, Wolfgang Zillig wrote:

I don't understand what you have and what you want.

For a more detailed description: I use Jabraf to organise my literature. The output is a bib file. As example: @ARTICLE{Hameury2005, author = {Hameury, S.}, title = {Moisture buffering capacity of heavy timber tructures directly exposed to an indoor climate: a numerical study}, journal = {Building and Environment}, year = {2005}, volume = {40}, pages = {1400-1412}, abstract = {sehr interessante Zusammenstellung von Holz-Eigenschaften!}, comment = {genauere Analyse des Papers nötig!}, owner = {zillig}, pdf = {literatur-holz\moisture buffering capacity of heavy timber structures directly exposed to an indoor climate - a numerical study.pdf}, } I have to check if it's possible to add extra braces to capital letters automatically but I thik doing this is archatic. Is there a multilanguage feature available? This is probably needed to get the right hyphenation patterns. Wolfgang Thomas A. Schmitz schrieb:

Hi Wolfgang, For 1. and 2., see Thomas' reply. Wolfgang Zillig wrote:

In the bibl-apa.tex file, you can simply remove all the \insertcomment commands. Or you can delete the \comment lines from <\jobname>.bbl (probably easier).
4. is there a way of citing by bibtex key? (to get (Hameury2005) for the entry @ARTICLE{Hameury2005,...)). I think that is nice to have during writing the document and only to change this in the final version.
Sure you can: \cite[key][Hameury2005] will give you "Hameury2005" Greetings, Taco
