Bibliography with certain Style

Post by Davidislm »

Hi everyone !

I'm doing my first report with LaTeX. My output is quite finished but I have a little problem with my bibliography.

I've done it with BibTeX and it worked very well with \bibliographystyle{plain}, but the point is that my professor told me that he expected a bibliography's form like the following example:
[3] Patashnik, O. (1988) Using BibTeX, documentation for general BibTeX users.
So with the Name, Initial and the year in parenthesis. I've found that this corresponds to the style "cj".

But I do not know why, when I put "cj" instead of "plain", my bibliography does not appear anymore (after compiling .tex file, then BibTeX and LaTeX twice again). The point is that it works very well with "plain" but nothing appears with "cj".

My question is: Am I supposed to use a package of something like that?

I don't know if it may help but I attached my BibTeX database.


Thank you very much. :)

Bibliography with certain Style

Make sure that the corresponding bibliography style is part of your TeX system. You can check that on the command line by typing the following line (confirmed by "Enter").

Code: Select all

kpsewhich cj.bst
If that yields no output, the style file is not in your TeX installation tree. You should get a corresponding error message if you try to use it nonetheless. Download cj.bst and place it in the same directory as your document source (*.tex).
