General ⇒ References won't compress using "cite" package

[jamasony]

Hello,

I am having trouble getting my references to compress (e.g. [2,3,4] becomes [2-4]). I am using the "cite" package from
http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros ... trib/cite/

which was updated April 09. I've tried it also using the compress option (which the documentation says is active by default), but no luck. I am using Miktex. Any ideas on how to get this functionality to be in effect?

Many thanks,

Jason

Please post an example TeX file, so we can see how you are using it!

Hi Joseph,

Thanks for the response.

UPDATE - post deleted, figured it out. I am using the "newclude" package, this breaks the citation compression. I remove the newclude package and the auxiliary files, and citations now compress properly.

EDIT - it is the "newclude" package which seems to be breaking the citation compression.

maybe you can try the natbib with the option compress. it may be compatible with newclude package, if you still need it.

Thanks Spiegboy. I was able to just remove newclude here.
