Strange author field output on Bibtex-Export

Hi, I have a problem:

the Zotero Bibtex-Export creates me entries such as:

@misc{denso_wave_qr_2010,
title = {{QR} Code Patent {FAQ}},
url = {http://www.qrcode.com/en/faqpatent.html},
urldate = {2013-01-27},
author = {\{{Denso} Wave\}},
year = {2010},
howpublished = {http://www.qrcode.com/en/faqpatent.html},
},

Take a look at the author field! There are strange slashes and 2 more curly brackets than I expect. These are totally breaking my BibLatex-Support. I now get "{Denso Wave}" in the Footnotes.

I think the field should look like:

author = {{Denso} Wave},

Can anyone help me?

PS: Using Zotero Standalone 3.0.11.1 on Linux
  • Second that on Windows 7 and Zotero Standalone 3.0.11.1.

    All corporate authors (e.g. "World Bank") shouldn't be treated as combinations of first and last name. And matter of fact, they aren't. It's just that biblatex preserves on pair of brackets within the citation and the bibliography.
  • we're aware of this and hope to have a fix out shortly.
  • I can confirm this output handling on Mac OS X 10.8.2 Zotero Standalone 3.0.11.1.
    Hoping for a bugfix soon.

    Keep the good work going!
  • I pushed a temporary fix for this, while I finish the new BibTeX translator.

    In single field mode (i.e. corporate authors) you should now see exports like {{Denso Wave}}. You will also get {{Toys R {US}}} however, but that doesn't harm anyone, so this will just have to do in the mean time.
  • Thanks! The fix works just fine!
  • Perfect, Thank you!
