Rich text formatting in bibtex exports

β with utf8 is correct. I'll see if I can replicate the ? in ISO - obviously that shouldn't happen.

nitesh · December 12, 2012

while β with utf8 maybe be correct, it is causing problems with biber/biblatex/pdflatex (though i'm not sure what is breaking it).

on the other hand, the previous $\beta$ (also with utf8) seemed to work well.

@noksagt, aurimas - does either of you have any thoughts on the $/beta$? I don't see how this could have ever worked, but I might be missing something? Otherwise, do we need to import a mapping for greek letters?

There are many UTF-8 entitites that we miss. Some are exceedingly difficult to transliterate to TeX entitites. That being said, I see no reason we shouldn't transliterate greek. spartan had implemented these in his patch. We just never separated out the parts of the patch we found useful from those that had behavior that we disagreed with:

@nitesh - greek letters should now work in bibtex output in ISO-8859 mode.

The translator fix is now up. Your version of Zotero will automatically update within 24hs, or you can update manually using the "Update Now" button in the "General" tab of the Zotero preferences.

Any problems let us know.

same applies for Phillip Gurman above - should now be fixed.

Thanks m8. Works like a charm. Now if only we can fix the escaping of authors names when a single field is used that would be wonderful.

adamsmith · December 20, 2012

doh - will fix that over the break.
