Making Numbered Citations Appear As A Range?

ruchira
Hi all,

I am preparing a manuscript for submission to a journal that has the following requirement:

All references must be cited in the text and should be denoted using numbers in square brackets before the punctuation., e.g. [1, 3–5]. References should be numbered consecutively in the order in which they appear.

However, if I have references as in the example they appear as [1][3][4][5]. Is there a citation style I can use to get them to appear as a range? I have edited Zotero style files before, but am not sure how to solve this issue.

I will be very grateful for any help!

    most numerical styles do this already (e.g. Vancouver with brackets) - you'll have to use the "multiple sources" button in the plugin, though.

    Thanks very much Adam Smith. Now that you told me about "multiple sources", I'll experiment with numerical styles to get the right formatting.

    Thanks,
