Hi pemfir

Welcome to LaTeX!

I've done some searching and it appears that all the conversion utilities go the other way, bib to XML.

However, I should be able to write a script to do the conversion.

Would you be happy to send me your XML bibliography file? You could sent it by Private Message ...

Hi mmutoo

I would simply use:

(German Help - Hilfe auf deutsch: Undefined control sequence - wie finde ich heraus, was fehlt? - LC editor remark)

I'm trying to include newlines inside a tabular environment.

Following StefanK's answer to this problem here:

For those struggling with this problem caused by a \marginpar inside, for example, a \parbox, try marginnote.

frabjous you are brilliant!

My very silly error was putting the title-verso page after \frontmatter.

It should be:

Code: Select all

Code, edit and compile here:

\begin{document}
\include{titlepage}
\maketitle
\include{title-verso}

\tableofcontents
etc...

I'm using the book class to typeset a book.

The 'standard' is for the title-verso page (aka copyright page) to go on the reverse of the title page.

However, \maketitle inserts a blank page.

I've tried creating both pages as 'ordinary' pages, but then the title page gets a page number.

Thank you, Stefan (once again)

do you use the fontenc package? Not yet :)
