Kornel,

I hadn't thought to look at the .bst files. I did find deprecated font
encodings (e.g., \sc, \bf) in the authordate series but did not look further
in them.

I've used authordate3 or 4 for years so the font encodings were not an issue
before, but I hadn't encountered the 'Tech. rept.' string before now.

Think it's time to send a message to TUG about these.

Thanks,

Rich
