biblatex+biber: issue={4es} or number={4es}?












0















Let's assume we want to cite the article



https://doi.org/10.1145/242224.242385



Our LaTeX document contains



usepackage[backend=biber,style=numeric-comp,sortcites=true,maxbibnames=99,useprefix=true,dateabbrev=true]{biblatex}


Both DBLP and the publisher's Web page concerning the document suggest number = {4es} for BibTeX. However, we use biber in this question. Would the answer stay the same (and "4es" considered a "short designator"), or would we switch to issue = {4es}?









share























  • number and issue are not the same, although it's not entirely clear to me how certain journals choose these two. What is the problem you are trying to solve? Is it that biber is complaining about 4es not being only digits?
