Document Classes ⇒ Customizing BibLaTeX

[R. Geppert]

Hi,

I would like to get BibLaTeX customized in the following way, but can't find anything in the docu.
I hope somebody has got some hints for me.

a) Authorname in the bibliography should be small caps instead of normalfont
b) recurring authors shall not be abbreviated by an em dash but rather a long line
both should be formatted in the way the style siam does

here two examples:

BibLaTeX:

Code: Select all

Code, edit and compile here:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
\documentclass[a4paper,english]{scrreprt}
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage[babel,english=american]{csquotes}
\usepackage[style=verbose]{biblatex}
\bibliography{references}
\begin{document}
abc\footcite{Ryan2007}
def\footcite{Ryan2008}
\printbibliography
\end{document}
