Have You checked out the file to be sure the conversion of special characters worked correctly? > Could it be that by entering the bibfile by lyx it > checks the first line of the bibfile which still says: > This file was created with JabRef 1.7.1. > Encoding: UTF-8 > and could I just through these lines out or replace it with the iso-8859-1? First, maybe You should upgrade Jabref to 2.0.1? It's really worth upgrading. Second, I'm not sure if replacing the header really helps. My own Jabref bibliography begins with: This file was created with JabRef 2.0.1. Encoding: ISO8859_1 You may try replacing the encoding definition manually, maybe it helps... Kind regards, Kimmo
