Page Layout ⇒ Bibliography page layout

[vortex3]

Hello everyone,

I need to change the page loyout of the bibliography. I need to put the page number in the upper right corner, insted of the bottle center.

I'm using the bibtex packet.

I try to use the \thispagestyle{}, but it didn't work.

This is what it did:

\thispagestyle{titulos}
\begin{singlespace}
\bibliographystyle{unsrt}
\bibliography{./Bibliografia/Referencias}
\end{singlespace}


I put the \thispagestyle{} command in other lines too, but didn't work.

Anyone knows how to do this?

Thank you very much

Hi,

you can redefine the thebibliography environment as defined in the document class that you are using; the following code shows how to do this when using article to use empty as the page style:

Code: Select all

\makeatletter
\renewenvironment{thebibliography}[1]
     {\section*{\refname}%
      \thispagestyle{empty}% change the style to suit to your needs
      \@mkboth{\MakeUppercase\refname}{\MakeUppercase\refname}%
      \list{\@biblabel{\@arabic\c@enumiv}}%
           {\settowidth\labelwidth{\@biblabel{#1}}%
            \leftmargin\labelwidth
            \advance\leftmargin\labelsep
            \@openbib@code
            \usecounter{enumiv}%
            \let\p@enumiv\@empty
            \renewcommand\theenumiv{\@arabic\c@enumiv}}%
      \sloppy
      \clubpenalty4000
      \@clubpenalty \clubpenalty
      \widowpenalty4000%
      \sfcode`\.\@m}
     {\def\@noitemerr
       {\@latex@warning{Empty `thebibliography' environment}}%
      \endlist}
\makeatother

If your document class in not article, of course, you will have to redefine the
corresponding thebibliography environment.

Hello:

I need to change my bib layout in a different way. The default indentation of the bibliography is too far to the right. How can we shift it to the left a bit? The syntax that I use to output my latex file from TeXnicCenter to .pdf was

\begin{thebibliography}{breitestes 1}
\bibitem{}...
.
.
.
\end{thebibliography}

ThanQ!

Learn more about the thebibliography environment to get its appearance right.


Best regards

I went the doc per the link. But it doesn't say anything about the natural indentation of \bibliography ... ???

Hi,

the \thebibliogrpahy environment uses a LaTeX list, so the list parameters can be used to change, for example, the bibitems indentation.

Ok, can you post a sample code for this. I don't see it in the documentation (unless there is another one from the previous post) of how to change the indentation... Would like to save page space. ThX!

Of course. Here's an example, using article as document class:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{lipsum}% just to automatically generate some text

\makeatletter
\renewenvironment{thebibliography}[1]
     {\section*{\refname}%
      \thispagestyle{plain}%
      \@mkboth{\MakeUppercase\refname}{\MakeUppercase\refname}%
      \list{\@biblabel{\@arabic\c@enumiv}}%
           {\settowidth\labelwidth{\@biblabel{#1}}% 
            \setlength\itemindent{10pt}% modified
            \setlength\leftmargin{0pt}% modified 
            \setlength\labelsep{10pt}% modified 
            \advance\leftmargin-30pt% modified
            \@openbib@code
            \usecounter{enumiv}%
            \let\p@enumiv\@empty
            \renewcommand\theenumiv{\@arabic\c@enumiv}}%
      \sloppy
      \clubpenalty4000
      \@clubpenalty \clubpenalty
      \widowpenalty4000%
      \sfcode`\.\@m}
     {\def\@noitemerr
       {\@latex@warning{Empty `thebibliography' environment}}%
      \endlist}
\makeatother

\begin{document}

\lipsum[1]

\begin{thebibliography}{9}
  \bibitem{one} \lipsum[1]
  \bibitem{two} \lipsum[1]
\end{thebibliography}

\end{document}

The changes made to the thebibliography environment are marked with % modified. Use the length commands (and change their value) according to your needs.

Here's the original definition of the environment as given in the file article.cls:

Code: Select all

\newenvironment{thebibliography}[1]
     {\section*{\refname}%
      \@mkboth{\MakeUppercase\refname}{\MakeUppercase\refname}%
      \list{\@biblabel{\@arabic\c@enumiv}}%
           {\settowidth\labelwidth{\@biblabel{#1}}%
            \leftmargin\labelwidth
            \advance\leftmargin\labelsep
            \@openbib@code
            \usecounter{enumiv}%
            \let\p@enumiv\@empty
            \renewcommand\theenumiv{\@arabic\c@enumiv}}%
      \sloppy
      \clubpenalty4000
      \@clubpenalty \clubpenalty
      \widowpenalty4000%
      \sfcode`\.\@m}
     {\def\@noitemerr
       {\@latex@warning{Empty `thebibliography' environment}}%
      \endlist}

Please don't mix several topics in one thread. Regarding your problem you should avoid any special characters (blank spaces, underscores, ...) in the name and the path of the file. As an alternative you can try the grffile package from the oberdiek bundle.
