How would I in the case of multiple authors cite in the pdf output only 3 followed by /and others/ or /et.al./? Should I do it in the reference manager (in my case JabRef) or in Lyx? There in the Latex preamble?

If you are using Biblatex, then the mincitenames=3 option gives you what you want.

See https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/69028/set-limit-to-one-author-when-using-et-al-in-biblatex.

Minimal example attached.

Btw. it is always helpful if you can include a minimal example, so one does not need to guess what your setup is when answering.

Daniel

Thanks, Daniel

I have asked in a separate mail for a biblatex template for a book. I am a bit lost with the requirements. Do you happen to have one or a link to the Internet?

Wolfgang



I am a bit lost with what you are after. What do you mean by "a biblatex template"?

Daniel

A template (>file>template) which I can use for starting a book with biblatex settings.

Wolfgang



I see "File > New From Template" on my end. I take it that is what you mean.
yes, well guessed

You can easily create your own template. Just create a new document and make all the settings you would like to have in your document. Then save it in the template folder.

Daniel

/You can easily create your own template/

Sorry, Daniel, /I/ can't do it easily.

Here is what I did:

-Wrote a mail to Springer asking for a Lyx layout file, but no answer so far

-Checked the Springer publisher pages for a layout. There is svvorl.dtx (a lengthy docu) and svvorl.ins, which gives me tex template files and a .cls file. To convert it is to a lyx layout file is described in https://wiki.lyx.org/Layouts/CreatingLayouts and in Help>Customization>ยง5

I thought there is perhaps somebody around who has already used a svvorl.layout for writing a book for the Springer publisher.
