For Springer, it is sometimes a bit more complicated than just exporting to
LaTeX. You also have to take care of inserting the bibliography into the
main LaTeX file, as they usually don't accept separate bib files. It
depends on the journal/book series, though. In case they don't, you
basically, you have to do the following:
1. Export to LaTeX (to, say "myfile.tex)
2. Run pdflatex (or xelatex or lualatex) on myfile.tex from the command line
3. run bibtex or biber on myfile.tex from the command line
4. Open the myfile.bbl in an editor, copy all the bibitems to clipboard
5. Open the myfile.tex file in an editor and paste all the bibitems you
copied inside the bibliography environment you will find at the end of the
file.
6. Send the myfile.tex file to Springer
See [1] for an example.
