The Custom format option on the
Bibliography and
Generate Citations dialogs lets you
write information from your datafile in formats other than those
provided as compiled Standard
Publishing Style Formats.
Citation installs several custom format files you can use to print
your records, or use as templates for writing your own custom
format files. These files are located in your citation folder, and
have the extension *.cf.
