FrameMaker Technical Paper Template

9 Bibliographical items and references

Bibliographical items are collected together in a reference section and tagged with the special Bibliographical Item paragraph format. The rules to be observed are:

  1. Items are ordered alphabetically according to the last name of the author.
  2. Titles of publications and periodicals are italicised.
  3. Titles of articles in periodicals are enclosed within single quotation marks.
  4. Volume numbers of periodicals are displayed in bold.
  5. References to WWW documents should have the WWW address put in the special paragraph format, Bibliographic URL . This may then be automatically hyperised if the paper is converted to WWW, see Section 10 .

Making a bibliographical reference in FrameMaker is nothing more than inserting a cross-reference that uses the Bibliographic item cross-reference format, the destination paragraph being the paragraph containing the information on the publication. Bibliographical references appear in the text with a number between square brackets.

Example: FrameMaker users find Lamport's LaTeX reference guide [3] fascinating. J. Butcher [2] shows how to write articles with style. Reference [1] is an example of how you should typeset a reference to an article in a journal. Electronic documents such as the web for CSC'96 [4] , are not intended to be read while listening to music after dinner.
