This is a description of the conventions that .bib files must adhere to in order for the bibutils package to work optimally. Basically, all the standard types of entry (article, inproceedings, book, etc.) and all the standard fields (author, title, publisher, etc.) are supported by bibutils. Some of these fields are required for the correct operation of bibutils (see Section section Standard Fields Required in BiBTeX Files). In addition, some new fields which particular to bibutils can (and, in some cases, must) be added to the BiBTeX entries for full operation of bibutils. These new fields are described below. In particular, the main restriction is that typically every entry in the .bib file which is elligible to appear in the generated documents must contain the field butype.
