[solved] Numbered Springer book style: page numbers not handled as expected?!
Hello,
for a Springer book I am using a Springer style (duh!): "Springer - Basic (numeric, brackets, no etal, alphabetical)"
Now I just realized two problems:
1) For a direct quote from p13 of a book, call it ref #19, I only see "[19]" in-text. Yet, I expected to see the page number included like "[19, 13]".
2) The bibliography at the end only shows the book #19 -without- any page numbers. That is not at all what I expect?!
3) Finally, what should happen in the bibliography when I cite two -different- pages from the same ref #19, for example [19, 13] and later [19, 121]? How would the entry or entries in the bibliography look like?
What can I do to solve 1) and 2)? Do I need another Springer style or can I adjust the one I am using? Or do bracketed, numbered styles not show page numbers by default?
Thank you very much for any hints!
Best, digisus

For (1), if I recall correctly, the Springer style guide doesn’t include any guidance on formatting page numbers for citations. I believe the guide may even explicitly say to not include page numbers. Do you have an example book or article from Springer with in-text page numbers for numeric citations?
In general, I think the style is following Springer’s guidelines correctly.
I was aware that I am not familiar with numeric styles; this confirms it. ;-) I am also somewhat unhappy about not being able to cite pages directly, but alas, then so be it...
Thanks, digisus
