Optional: Create a help text to describe the style's distinctive features. Enter the source information for the style guidelines you used to create the style. |
|
Optional: Choose the language for the style and the citation system. Choose a subject area for the style. |

For all styles: determine how the bibliography should look. For the font size, line breaks, and paragraph formatting, Citavi uses the "Standard" style in your document. |

Most author-date styles require a letter to be appended to the year: Miller 2013a, Miller 2013b. |
