Subject: Bilbiography Configuration
Hello,
Unfortunately, we forgot to describe the bibliography configuration in
the OOo spec. Here's what it does:
The bibliography configuration is contained in the document's style
section. It contains essentially two bibliography-specific information
items, namely 1) how an entry is displayed in-line, and 2) how entries
are put into the bibliography index.
The first item is handled by prefix and suffix strings, and boolean
value for numbering. With prefix and suffix "[" and "]" a bibliography
item "Abc123" would be displayed as "[Abc123]" in the document body. The
boolean entry for numbering determines whether a bibliography entrie's
short form or a number is used to identify the entry. In the former case
an entry would be [5], in the latter it would be [abc123], provided the
entry has a short name of abc123.
The second item contains primarily the sorting information for the
bibliography entries. Entries can be sorted eitehr by document position
(in particular useful for numbered entries), or by an arbitrary
selection of entry fields, e.g. author name or publication date. The
collating order for entries is determined by the triplet
language/country/sort-algorithm. The latter is not usually used for
European languages, but is a necessity for some Asian languages that
have no 'natural' order for their ideographic characters. In such
countries, different sorting algorithms (e.g. by pronounciation) may be
in use.
