Ibid. (in repeated citations) appearing with a space following (footnote styles)

[jiporter]

Oddly, in my self-designed style, “Ibid.” appears with a trailing space. There is no extra space in the style specification. In fact, it seems identical to Chicago 15A, which produces no trailing space. I have checked “Replace repeated data with” under both categories, and no short form checked at the top. (Checking it makes no difference.)

I wonder where else EndNote is getting the instruction to add a space?  

Thanks in advance.
Looking more closely, I see that this is intermittent: some refs add spaces, others don’t, but consistently so. No idea why.

See this thread.

I’m glad that this issue is being raised fairly frequently now. This suggests that EndNote is being used more widely in the humanities. I hope this will give the developers some incentive to fix the long-standing problems with footnote styles, such as the “trailing space” and the “floating bracket.”
