Hey there,

I’m really new to JabRef and I’d like to create a LaTeX document with my files, but I only want to have the author’s name(s) and titles. How can I do it?

Until now i’m marking all entries and press “copy”, then insert it in latex.

Several possibilities:

- the best way is probably to leave your .bib file as it is, and use a specific bibliography style. I do not think there is currently a bibliographic style that match your needs, but it should not be much complicated to simplify an existing one.
- an alternative is to define a custom export filter in JabRef. See [https://help.jabref.org/en/CustomExports](https://help.jabref.org/en/CustomExports) .
