I followed Natbib reference sheet and \citet
works as expected. I would like the author's name to appear in small caps, how can I do that?
I guess I should do:
Define
\citenumfont
to be a font declaration or command like
\itshape
or […]\textit
.
but I have no idea what it means.
Before you upvote lockstep's answer: it does not work, the authors name are not in small cap, the renewcommand has no effect. His example code does not compile as it is now.
UPDATE: Here is a minimum working example.
smallcap.tex
\documentclass[fleqn]{article}
\usepackage[numbers]{natbib}
\makeatletter
%\renewcommand*{\NAT@nmfmt}[1]{\textsc{#1}}
\def\NAT@nmfmt#1{\textsc{#1}}
\makeatother
\begin{document}
As mentioned in \citet{Biegler97}~\dots
\bibliographystyle{plainnat}
\bibliography{dummy}
\end{document}
dummy.bib
@BOOK{biegler97,
AUTHOR = {Lorenz T. Biegler and Ignacio E. Grossmann and Arthur W. Westerberg},
TITLE = {Systematic Methods of Chemical Process Design},
YEAR = {1997},
PUBLISHER = {Prentice Hall PTR, Upper Saddle River, NJ}
}

\NAT@nmfmt
in the relevant place of\NAT@test
In order to get
