1. Open a new document in Lyx. Ensure that Pybliographic is also running with the appropriate bibliography file open. Without the two applications simultaneously running, citations cannot be inserted into the Lyx document.
2. Before inserting citations, the writer should insert the bibliography first. In most cases, the list is at the end of a section, chapter, or article. In the Lyx document window, place the insertion point to where the bibliography will be displayed.
3. Click Insert, List/TOC then click Bibtex Bibliography.
4. In the Database window, click Add. Ignore the list of sample bibliographies listed. Click Browse and navigate to the .bib file created from Pybliographic.
5. Click Add. The database should now display the bibliography filename from Pybliographic.
6. The Style box lists numerous bibliography styles included with Lyx. Select an appropriate Style for the document. Otherwise, use the default Style plain.
7. After clicking Ok, the Lyx document window will now display highlighted text indicating the BibTeX Generated Bibliography.
 |
| The generated bibliography is displayed formatted when the Lyx file is exported to PDF, however, in the Lyx Document window it only displays "BibTeX Generated Bibliography." |
Inserting Citations into Lyx
1. With the generated bibliography now inserted into the document, writers can now add as many citations as they need.
2. Place the insertion point to where a specific citation is required. Click Insert then Citation.
3. A list of Available Citations will be displayed as Keys defined during the creation of the bibliography. Writers can also search for specific citations in the list.
4. Select a citation from the list and click the Add button.
5. If more than one book is cited, use the Up and Down buttons to arrange the sequence of citations.
6. Writers can also change the Citation style or add text before or after the citation. Click Apply or Ok.
 |
| The Lyx Document window will only display the Key once a citation is inserted. Mousingg over displays the citation details. |
Inserting Citations directly from Pybliographic
1. A writer may have difficulty remembering the Keys for each book. Pybliographic can insert Citations directly into a Lyx document via Lyx Pipe.
2. Ensure that both Lyx and Pybliographic are open with the document and file open.
3. In the Lyx document window, place the insertion point to where the Citation should appear.
4. In Pybliographic, select an entry from the list. Click Cite then Cite or use the Cite button from the control bar.
 |
| To use Pybliographic to add citations via Lyx Pipe, both Lyx and Pybliographic need to be running. |
