Hello,

I'd like to include a BibTeX logo in my LaTeX document (the one that looks
analagous to the TeX and LaTeX logos produced by \TeX and \LaTeX). I've
tried \BibTeX, \bibtex, and various other uppercase/lowercase permutations,
and they all result in "Undefined control sequence".

Is there a package that's required to do this?

I'm using the TeTeX 0.4pl8 package that comes with Red Hat Linux.

Thanks,

I think the "official" way of doing this is saying "\textsc{Bib}\TeX

i thought it was the magnificently complex,

{\rmfamily B\kern-.05em \textsc{i\kern-.025em b}\kern-.08em
T\kern-.1667em\lower.7ex\hbox{E}\kern-.125emX}

but that includes the `standard' definition of \TeX written out.

my view is, blow the officialdom, write something simple (like pelle's
suggestion) or something simpler still such as Bib\TeX

these `logos' are merely the tex community's way of giving into the
marketing men's insanity. just (don't) do it...
