While -this is not unreasonable by BibTeX’s lights (the rules come from -the <em>Chicago Manual of Style</em>) it can be troublesome, since -BibTeX fails to recognise special uses (such as acronyms, chemical -formulae, etc.). -<p/>The solution is to enclose the letter or letters, whose capitalisation -BibTeX should not touch, in braces, as: -<blockquote> -<pre> -title = {The {THE} operating system}, -</pre> -</blockquote><p> -Sometimes you find BibTeX changing the case of a single letter -inappropriately. No matter: the technique can be applied to single -letters, as in: -<blockquote> -<pre> -title = {Te{X}niques and tips}, -</pre> -</blockquote><p> -If your document design specification requires a different style of -capitalisation, you should acquire a bibliography style that doesn’t -enforce BibTeX’s default rules. It is definitely <em>not</em> a good -idea to enclose an entire title in braces, as in -<blockquote> -<pre> -title = {{TeXniques and tips}}, -</pre> -</blockquote><p> -though that does ensure that the capitalisation is not changed. Your -BibTeX database should be a general-purpose thing, not something -tuned to the requirements of a particular document, or to the way you -are thinking today. -<p/>There’s more on the subject in the - -<a href="FAQ-BibTeXing.html">BibTeX documentation</a>. -<p/><p>This question on the Web: <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=capbibtex">http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=capbibtex</a> -</body> |
