What am I doing wrong? Mac + Texmaker

Post by Yeats »

OK I am new to Tex and really need help with this. Here it goes:

1. I use Mac with the MacTeX-2008 Distribution http://www.tug.org/mactex/ and Texmaker.

2. I made my file and it looks like this:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[a4paper]{scrartcl}
\usepackage[ngerman]{babel}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{jurabib}
\usepackage{brechtbib}
%
%
\begin{document}
%
%
\section{Dies ist die ersten Section}
Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text \cite[1]{hermann2001} Text Text Text Text \cite{mustermann2007} Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text \cite[1]{hermann2001}
%
%
%
\clearpage
\bibliography{Literatur}
\bibliographystyle{jurabib}
\end{document}
2. And my Bibtex looks like this:

Code: Select all

@book{mustermann2007,
   author = {Hans Mustermann and Julia Mustermann},
   title = {ber die schne Jahreszeit Winter},
   publisher = {Fachpresse},
   year = {2007},
}
@incollection{hermann2001,
   author = {Gertrud Hermann and Warburg Herman and Inge Kury},
   title = {Was wirklich fr uns zhlt im Leben},
   shorttitle = {Hermann and Hermann and Kurz},
   booktitle = {Sammlung von Gedanken}
   publisher = {Herder}
   year = {2001},
   editor = {Walter Hausman}
   pages = {Walter Hausmann}
   adress = {Berlin}
}
4. I have my brechtbib.sty file in same folder where my main fail is saved so its not that...

5. When i finished entering commands and text I press LaTex and QuickBuild and all the time i get pdf file that doesnt have normal quotes but this:

I don't use Texmaker. Anyway, it seems that Quickbuild only launches LaTeX, but not BibTeX. Somewhere, TeXmaker should have a button or a menu item to run BibTeX. Try to find it. If you are working with, say, foo.tex, BibTeX reads foo.aux to see the citations you do, extracts data from the bib file, formats it and writes foo.bbl, which contains a thebibliography environment. You will also see foo.blg, where BibTeX writes the things or error it finds (useful for debugging incorrect bibliographies). A new LaTeX runs then builds the document with the bibliography and a last LaTeX run finally sets cross-references and citations. So, in few words, discover how to launch BibTeX in TeXmaker.
