3.4.1. Edit a bibliography

The bibliography is made up of the bibliographic entry elements.

When created, the bibliographic entry element is composed of a few default elements: author, reference, bibliographic identifier, title, abstract etc.

It is possible to compose an entry from the combination of relevant items for a bibliography. These items are found in the ToolsInsert Item menu (To customize).

[Tip]

The description of the elements is available in the DocBook guide.

A bibliographic reference makes it possible to make the link between the bibliographic entry and its reference in the text.

  1. Place your cursor where you want to insert the bibliographic reference.

  2. Click on the Links and referencesBibliographic reference menu:

    [Note]

    The link between the reference and the bibliographic entry is made via the identifier of the latter.

    If the bibliographic entry does not have an identifier, Calenco generates one.
