[] A friend of mine was typing a paper in Portuguese using LaTeX, and only noticed after handing it in that when she did \begin{thebibliography}, it gave the References title (section title of the bibliography) in english!! Does anyone know how to specify that the title be in another language? Thank you very much. -- Mark Galassi rosalia@mozart.UUCP ...!icus!mozart!rosalia These opinions are mine and should be everybody else's :-) -- Mark Galassi rosalia@mozart.UUCP ...!icus!mozart!rosalia These opinions are mine and should be everybody else's :-)

Someplace on your system you should have article.doc, book.doc and report.doc. At the very beginning of each is a note on how to make a foreign language version % PREPARING A FOREIGN LANGUAGE VERSION: % % This document style is for documents prepared in the English language. % To prepare a version for another language, various English words must % be replaced. All the English words that required replacement are % indicated below, where we give the name of the command in which the % words appear, and the entire line containing the word(s), with the % actual words underlined. You should edit the corresponding .sty file (eg. for article.doc edit article.sty) to make the changes. It should be pretty obvious what to do. Also you should probably call it something other than article.sty. -- Michael DeCorte // (315)265-2439 // P.O.
