In particular, I was looking for a way to include a multiple reference such as [1-4] with the dash in the middle. To do that I found out two options:
- \usepackage[numbers,sort&compress]{natbib} % multiple reference
That works but it has a small issue. I noticed that the "reference" title was written in lower case, left-aligned and not anymore in capital at it was before including this package.
or - \usepackage{cite} % for multiple references with the dash as separator
This was the answer I was looking for.
By the way to write multiple references:
\cite{ref1, ref2, ref3, ref4}
\cite{ref1, ref2, ref3, ref4}
Another small hint. While writing:
\begin{thebibliography}{number}
*
*
\end{thebibliography}
the number represents how many \bibitem entries you want to include. If this number if less than the real entries you will have a space formatting issue.
Hope it helps.
