latex - How to order citations by appearance using BibTeX? -


by default (using plain style) bibtex orders citations alphabetically.

how order citations order of appearance in document?

there 3 answers question.

  • use unsrt bibliography style, if you're happy formatting otherwise
  • use makebst (link) tool design own bibliography style

and personal recommendation:

  • use biblatex package (link). it's complete , flexible bibliography tool in latex world.

using biblatex, you'd write like

\documentclass[12pt]{article} \usepackage[sorting=none]{biblatex} \bibliography{journals,phd-references} % journals.bib , phd-references.bib bibtex databases \begin{document} \cite{robertson2007} \cite{earnshaw1842} \printbibliography \end{document}
