two bib file problem

Post by pallav »

I have two bib files namely abc and xyz to be used in a tex. The 1st bib file contains a large no of BibTeX entries and citation of a portion of it is made in my tex. The second bib file has only 3 BibTeX entries and I want to want referencing all the BibTeX entries without citing using another bst file. I have used the following code.

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{multibib}
\begin{document}
Here is \cite{zipf}.
\emph{1st references}
\bibliographystyle{alpha}
\bibliography{abc}
\newpage
\emph{2nd references}
\bibliographystyle{plain}
\bibliography{xyz}
\nocite{*}
\end{document}

The problem is that, the pdf file contains two references list (1) All citation references from my 1st bib file, (2) All the BibTeX entries from my 1st bib file. The second BibTeX entries are not shown in the pdf.

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Using the example, if I write the code

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{multibib}
\newcites{ltex}{\TeX\ and \LaTeX\ References}
\begin{document}
\bibliographystyleltex{alpha}
\bibliographyltex{xyz}
\nocite{*}
\renewcommand{\refname}{Postscript References}
\bibliographystyle{plain}
\bibliography{abc}
\nocite{*}
\end{document}
then also I am not getting the desired result.

Then read again Section 1 of the manual and pay special attention to the newly defined commands. Sorry, busy at the moment. More detailed answers tomorrow (perhaps).
