In text citation issue when building PDF

[mdtanker]

My in text citations are working fine on the local web server, but when building a PDF, some of the citation options seem to be ignored. For example, none of the prefix or suffixes appear, or options like "-" for only showing the year are ignored.

I've tried add suffix/prefix with both of the following format:

{cite:p}`{see}@https://doi.org/10.1126/science.1235798{fig 1}`

[e.g. @@https://doi.org/10.1126/science.1235798, pg. 22]

Description

Proposed solution

Additional notes

I'm using mystmd v1.1.37, and I've tried both the plain_latex and lapreprint templates.

Thanks for the bug report @mdtanker, it looks like we aren't handling this yet!

Something that would be really helpful if you are game is to give us a few examples to work some test cases out of: e.g. in the sandbox here

The code to modify this it is here if you are feeling like PRs! https://github.com/executablebooks/mystjs/blob/main/packages/myst-to-tex/src/index.ts#L372

[mdtanker]

@rowanc1 no problem, thanks for the response. I'll try and find some time to make some examples!

[mdtanker]

Here are some of the main examples from the NatBib reference sheet. I've added what the mystmd command should be, what the latex rendering should be, and what the output should look like for each example. For cases where the mystmd docs haven't stated a style I've added ??.

Not sure if that sandbox link is permanent, so I'll add the text below as well.

sandbox link

@rowanc1, does that sandbox use the latest release of mystmd, or the head of the main branch?
