Re: [Jabref-users] workaround for exporting author and/or editor

[Mark S. <ms...@ca...>]

this feature was updated and improved in JabRef 2.7.1. The "Custom Export  
Filters" section help files contains a description, but in summary there  
are two options:

\begin{author&editor} this text appears if there is an author AND editor  
field.\end{author&editor}

\begin{author|editor} this text appears if there is an author OR editor  
field.\end{author|editor}

Hope this helps,

Mark
