I am using biblatex, style=ieee, to create my bibliography.
In text I want the following cite with page number to look like this [1:123]
, but all online resources seem to insist that I should use \cite[p.~123]{keyword}
giving the output [1, p. 123]
. How do I get the format I want?
Edit
To make clear what my code looks like
\documentclass[12pt,titlepage,a4paper,draft]{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[style=ieee]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{References.bib}
\begin{document}
\section{Introduction}
This is a very nice introduction \cite[123]{Ref1}
\printbibliography
\end{document}
And my .bib file looks like this
@book{Ref1,
address = {North pole},
author = {Ann Author},
edition = {1},
publisher = {Name},
title = {{This is a very nice title}},
year = {2017}
}
biblatex
package.biblatex
the online resources you consulted have it wrong. You should normally use\cite[123]{sigfridsson}
(i.e. no manualp.~
) and then usebiblatex
options to control whether you automatically want to add 'p.' or not.
