• Bug fixes
Fixed a bug where a period following cited pages would not be removed before semicolons in grouped footnotes after a Mellel scan. Fixed a rare bug where secondary Ibid. citations could have misplaced style information with formats containing a secondary order. Fixed a bug where Word and NWP scans would output Ibid in formats with secondary orders even though the preceding matching citation was in a group. Fixed a bug where the first reference would always be used to display an Author-Date citation example in the Format Manager, regardless of which reference was selected.
