Re: Abbreviating Author Lists in Bibliography with "et al"

I am having the same problem you described. I'm using document class "article", natbib, "jneuros" (instead of plainnat). In the text, the "et al" works, but in the bibliography, all the authors' names show up.

exclude list of figures from table of contents

Hello,

I get the same problem: list of tables AND list of figures in my TOC, and I don't want it.
It probably comes from a package and layout that I'm being forced to use.
Here's my preamble:

\documentclass[english,brazil,ruledheader]{abnt}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin9]{inputenc ...

References in other languages

Hello,
I am writing a document in Portuguese (Brazil), and I am using the Natbib Author-Year citation style.
I would like to know if there is a way to translate the way citations are made. I mean this for the text body, not the references at the end of the document.
For example, this is how it ...

Multiple abstracts

Thanx for your help. I know there is probably a way to use the information you sent for LaTeX on LyX, but I don't know it.
If anyone else has any ideas: I tried adding gmedina's suggestion to LyX's preamble, but it didn't work.

Re: Error messages when trying to view pdf

Hey people,

I figured out the problem.
Turns out that I searched for what "\mbox{pp. 298--306}" from the error messages I posted above meant.

I went through the last references that I had inserted and found out that "298-306" were the pages of an article whose reference was one of the last I ...

Re: Error messages when trying to view pdf

Indeed, I am working on LyX. It is very strange that I suddenly started to get these errors, because until 2 days ago, tre .pdf conversion was working fine.
What happens is when I try to view in .pdf Lyx gives me a list of errors. Unfortunately, I have no idea what they mean (I posted some of the ...

The error messages I get are:

Re: Language issues during preview in DVI and PDF

I successfully changed the color and format of the table/figure labels.

Also, in case someone reads this discussion looking for the same answers, I found, in the documentation of the package you recommended above, info on another package (floatrow) which allows you to align pictures to the notes ...
