2 problems : a little one and a big one

Hi, I'm editing with Visual CSL Editor... a little problem that I have is that when there's more than one page in a footnote, the hyphen between the numbers is in the wrong font. I'm in Word (mac) and everything in my doc is in Times New Roman, my footnote style is in Times New Roman... even if I highlight only the hyphen and put it the Times font it doesn't change... the font of the hyphen is "Monaco"... no idea why... all the hyphen in the footnotes.

And the big one, is... if I'm citing book sections and a lot of sections are in the same book, so the first footnote is long and have all the details and all the subsequent sections that I cite in the same book are not "shortened"... it make sense cause the author and the sections are different but they 're all in the same book, how can I do to "shorten" the editors and the long name of the book after the first citation?! Is there a way to do that!?

Thanks!
  • Does the hyphen issue occur in every citation style or just in a particular one (i.e. the one you're editin)?

    Unfortunately there is no solution for the second issue. Zotero has no well of telling that two chapters are published in the same book, sorry.

    It"s for all the citation, in all the footnotes, I just replace them with the longer hyphen and it's stay in Times, so it's just when it's the normal one that Zotero changes the font... it's weird, probably a bug...
  • I understand it's every _citation_, but I was asking if this occurs with every citation _style_
  • Even English citation styles? And same thing in a new document?
  • (It looks like a known issue with the fr-FR localizaton, @adamsmith, as you probably know. But do the OPĀ use the fr localeĀ ?)
