Post by dbI know about setting \newcommand{cyr}... and then using \cyr{text}, but
the text is inside a bib-file. So if I set that command in the
manuscript and cite an article for which the bib-file contains the
cyrillic word in a note, will BibTeX know about it? Or how do I do it?
I need more help. I put in
\newcommand{cyr}{\fontencoding{OT1}\selectfont}
but this doesn't work. How should it be?
It might be easier to use XeLaTeX with biblatex and biber than BiBTeX
and OT1
