The critical thing is that the encoding match the encoding of the output LaTeX file. I also was finally able to match encodings... It seems that LyX UTF8 and utf8 are different and that only this last one matches JabRef's UTF8... Go figure! Thanks, Roberto -- Roberto Gor

Hi, I've selected JabRef as a references manager to work with LyX. I've selected it after a small web research, but, as I'm a newbie on LyX, I would like your opinion: was JabRef a good choice or are there better references managers to work with LyX? I'm on Win XP. Thanks! Roberto -- -
