Hi,

I am working on a minimal style: http://jens.allmer.de/downloads/minStyle.xml
When I install it and try to update my document then I get the following error:
Cryptic error message: Zotero experienced an error updating your document. The measurement must be between 0.7 pt and 1584 pt.
I would be more happy if I knew which particular measurement is referenced here so that I could fix it.

I am using chrome://zotero/content/%20tools/csledit.xul to develop it from a copy of some other style. It works fine in this environment.

What am I doing wrong?
Thank you,
Jens
  • It's probably the line-spacing="0" on cs:bibliography that is giving the problems. Try removing this attribute or using a value of one or higher.
  • Thank you very much, it worked when I set line-spacing and entry spacing to 1.

    Is there a way to have no entry spacing?
    Currently, the references are separated by an empty line and are on separate lines.
    What I would like to have is to have the references directly following each other separated by one space.
  • I changed entry spacing back to 0 and now there is no empty line between reference entries.

    Is there a way to replace the line break between entries with a space?
  • I get that same error when I try to edit a document that had some changes made in Word through track changes. Even after accepting all the changes to the document, I still get that error when I try to do anything: refresh zotero, edit a citation, etc. Help?
  • dustynrobots: Not related to this thread. Start a new one. And make sure Track Changes is turned off—just accepting changes isn't enough (though recent plugin versions are supposed to work with Track Changes, though that hasn't been extensively tested).
