Upgrade StorageBibliography output: first page only, and abbreviated container name?
Hi,
I'm a newbie to Zotero, and trying to create a custom CSL. Three Qs on bibliography output:
(1) Is it possible to extract the first page only from "inclusive pages" data, like:
"1456-1467" -> "1456"
(2) Is there any standard procedure to abbreviate container (journal) names, like:
"Physical Review Letters" -> "Phys. Rev. Lett." etc
(3) I also noticed that the bibliography output into OpenOffice Writer is double-spaced, i.e., there are two newlines (\n) after each entry. Is it configurable to one newline somehow?
If not, I'd like to put these three on the desirable features list, as they are pretty common to all kinds of reference lists.
Please advise. Cheeeeeeers

(2) There is a Journal Abbrev field which you can fill in. This is not actually used until version 1.0.2 though.
(3) Don't know.
On 2, since a court reporter and a code are basically periodicals, they need abbreviated fields as well.
I want to use journalAbbreviation if it's filled, and container-title otherwise:
<if journalAbbreviation is_not_empty>
<text variable="journalAbbreviation" suffix=" "/>
<else>
<text variable="container-title" suffix=" "/>
<endif>
but I only found conditionals like "type=". Is this kind of thing possible?
