Bib formatting, next line indent
      #599 - 08/11/05 07:45 PM

Hi, i was testing sente's word integration and found that when inserting bibs, if the bib is longer than 2 lines, the second line doesn't indent in word. This is strange as the bib format editor showed otherwise. Is this a Word format issue?

Another question is for the Publication Date field, i need to have only the numbers bold, with the surround brackets normal. Is that possible?

cheers.

You are right that the second line indent is a Word issue. Sente creates a paragraph format called SenteBibliography and all entries in the bibliography use this style. If you edit this style in Word, you will be able to get the result you are looking for. (This is how all paragraph-wide attributes are set in the bibliography entries in Word; for example, this is where the font should be set.)

For the date field, the best that you can do is to create a static text entry just before and after the date field and set them not to be bold. The problem with this approach is if the date field is occassionally missing, the brackets will show up with nothing in between, which may not be what you want.

thanks for the tips, static text is pretty handy.
