In the final step, you let TextMaker generate the bibliography at the end of the document. This lists all the records in the bibliography database for which you have inserted references into the text (as described in step 3).
To insert a bibliography, proceed as follows:
| 1. | Position the text cursor at the beginning of the line in which the bibliography should be placed. |
| 2. | Choose the ribbon command References | group Bibliography | Generate  . |
| 3. | Specify whether a new bibliography is to be generated at the current position or whether an existing bibliography is to be updated by selecting the appropriate option for Placement. |
| Note: Placement options are only available once a bibliography has been initially generated. Generate new bibliography is thus initially predefined by TextMaker. |
| 4. | In the large input field below, you can also change the appearance of the bibliography (see below). |
When you confirm with OK, TextMaker inserts the bibliography into the text.
Note: As mentioned at the beginning, only those records of the bibliography database for which you have actually inserted references into the text appear in the bibliography (see step 3).
Changing the appearance of the bibliography
Before clicking on OK to close the aforementioned dialog box, you can change the appearance of the bibliography if necessary:
Editing text: You can edit the text specified in the input field at any time. The well-known editing commands are available for this purpose.
Changing formatting: The formatting can also be changed. To do so, first select the desired section of text in the input field, and then use the miniature formatting toolbar displayed above it to change the character format.
Inserting fields: Fields from the bibliography database are indicated with curly braces. You can also insert additional fields into the input field by simply typing them (for example, {AUTHOR}) or by double-clicking on the desired field in the list Fields.
Tip: The first item in the list Fields is a field named {#REF}. This field is created automatically and has the following special feature: It contains either the abbreviation or an automatically generated number for the source, depending on which of these two options you selected for Reference style in the bibliography settings dialog box.
