Change font of \citet and \citep

Post by scenox »

Hello,

I have the natbib package with natdin style and want to change the font of the references (in my case the author and the year). I've searched in the natbib documentation but I only found a way to change the font of \bibliography and of the ref numbers, but not author and year (I'd like small capitals).
Is there a possibility or any other style to do this? In Word it is done automatically; there has to be a way in LaTeX.

I've found a partial solution - writing the authors name in the bib-file with \textsc{last name}. Anyone who knows an easier, automatic way?

Adding styling information in the bib-file is not a solution. What fonts are used for the different parts of the reference should be up to the bibtex style. If you're not able to find a style you like you can either make some changes to an existing style or use custom-bib to generate a new one.
