The discussion revolves around changing the bibliography style in a LaTeX document from bracketed numbering (e.g., [1]) to plain numbering (e.g., 1.). The user initially sought assistance in creating a custom .bst file using the "latex makebst" command but was unable to find the necessary option for modifying the numbering style. However, the user later resolved the issue by using a specific LaTeX command: \makeatletter \renewcommand \@biblabel[1]{\bf{#1}.} \makeatother, which successfully changed the bibliography numbering format.

Hi all,

I have to change the bibliography style in an "article"-type tex document from

[1] Author1, Author2, etc...
[2] Author3, Author4, etc.
...

to

1. Author1, Author2, etc.
2. Author3, Author4, etc.
...

and I want to create my own .bst file using "latex makebst" command. The problem is that I do not find any option there in order to change the numbering style from [1] to 1.

Can anyone help me to solve this?

Nevermind. Just figured out:

\makeatletter \renewcommand \@biblabel[1]{\bf{#1}.} \makeatother
