Style problems: Analytica Chimica Acta

The style Analytica Chimica Acta uses bold for the citation markers in my document, yet the style csl itself doesn't include bold here. I have tried editing it to include style-weight = "normal" in the citation section, and yet the citations are still bold!!

Is this a known problem and is there any solution??

Thanks in advance.
  • I can't reproduce this in Word 2007. Maybe you can try to select another style and then switch back to Analytica Chimica Acta. Does that change anything?
  • Looks fine in OpenOffice.org too. The output of this style is very close to the elsevier-without-titles style. You might see if this latter style works for you.
  • Hmm, switching styles doesn't help, but it seems like this is some sort of global issue - all the styles that I have tried are coming up in bold. I recently finished a document using Zotero and had no problems, so I'm not sure what could have caused this switch to bold. Is there a global switch somewhere?

    In case it is useful, I am using Word XP, and still have Endnote (blech) installed until I can switch over completely.

    Cheers

    Perhaps the citations are formatted by a style selected in Word. If you place the cursor within a citation box, what text style does the formatting-toolbar indicate? If the style that is used differs from that of the rest of the text, open the styles and formatting-toolbar ("Format">"Styles and Formatting..." in Word 2003) and modify the style used for the citations to no longer use bold.
  • It does show up as bold on the Word formatting icon, and I can switch it back to normal by turning bold off there. Unfortunately, as soon as I do anything in Zotero after that that requires reformatting, the bold is back.
  • Does the problem also occur in new documents?

    P.S. I updated my previous post.
  • Aha, that fixes it - it was the style that was causing the problem. Not sure why the citations were in a different style to the body text, but it is better now.

    Thanks for your help Rintze!
