BUG: 4.1 RC2 Citation format in Print/Export is not correct

I set citation format to Turabian, but found the citation format is not shown correctly in Print/Export function (I tried to use Print function in Clipping). And also, no matter what kind of format I set in Print preview, it does not make any change.

BTW, do we expect citation format for footnote in Clipping / Copy&paste to MS Word is different from citation format for Bibliography? As I know, they should be a bit different.

Thanks,
Nelson

    Hi Nelson,

    We'll look into this. Thanks.

    I'm not finding that the Turabian citation format is inconsistent. I did find that if I choose 'Bibliography only' and there are clippings from more than one reference in the same Bible, only the passage from the first clipping will appear in the citation. I will see if that can be changed to include all the references.

    Could you perhaps attach a screenshot of where it isn't correct?

    Not sure am I right, I think Turabian format should be like, (page number sits at the last) :-

    Book, single author:
     
    First note: 1. M. A. R. Habib, A History of Literary Criticism and Theory: From Plato to the Present

    Logos bibliographies don't support articles, only whole books. Perhaps that's the problem.

    Yeah.. there is some examples I found from web, just copy and paste here, but i think it shows the format in print/export is not correct even for book. (if copy&paste to MS Word its format is correct)

    And should I expect when copy & paste to Word, its citation in footnote, should be in First note format. But if I select "Bibliography only", it will show Bibliography format.
