Adjust author font in bibliography, alphabetic style

Post by Mathias90 »

Dear all,

I am using BibTeX for managing my bibliography, style alphabetic, backend bibtex8.
Currently I am struggling with my author font, which is different from the remaining text in my printed bibliography.

I would like to adjust the author style to the rest of the text. Additionally, the author names should always be written with the first letter of both first and last name capitalized while the remaining letters are in lower case.

I would highly appreciate your help!
Thanks in advance.

Attached you find a picture of my current problem.

Adjust author font in bibliography, alphabetic style

Post by Stefan Kottwitz »

Hi Mathias,

welcome to the forum!

For helping in modifying the style, we need to know which style that is. Or attach a copy of the style file to a forum post. Somewhere there's an \scshape or \textsc in the style, I think. This if for the small caps font, and it needs to be changed.

If you don't use any small caps on other places, a hack would be setting the small caps shape right to the normal font shape or overriding \scshape and \textsc so they won't have effect at all.

Dear Stefan,

thank you very much for your warm words.
By using your hint, I found a \textsc{} in my style preamble. By removing it, I solved my problem.

Thank you very much indeed!

Have a nice day!
