Strange, I tossed your reference into an existing .bib file and the
Umlaute came through just fine when I exported to text and to html.

Sorry, off topic,
but I have two questions re Jabref
1. If I want to save or select a file, the menu opens BEHIND the Jabref.
How can I get it in the forground?
2. I can't get Jabref (it's 4.3.1) to export Umlaute (neither in UTF8
nor in Din1505 nor in html.
Example:
@Article{Buenning1932c,
author = {Bünning, E.},
title = {Über die {E}rblichkeit der {T}agesperiodizität bei den
\emph{{P}haseolus}-{B}lättern},
journal = {Jb. wiss. Botanik},
year = {1932},
volume = {77},
pages = {283-320},
}
Note, that I talk just about the Jabref export itself, not via lyx.
I could not find help in the net, it just says it would work. But not
for me.

Thanks, John. I have, by the way, tried also to use biblatex in
Jabref. Same problem. I also tried German as the language- no cure.
Could it be due to a general language setting on my PC? And where
would I check for it? I am using
Downloads$ cat /etc/issue Linux Mint 18.3 Sylvia \n \l and the KDE version
This is the keybord input configuration:
Current configuration for the input method:
* Active configuration: missing (normally missing)
* Normal automatic choice: none (normally ibus or fcitx or uim)
* Override rule:
zh_CN,fcitx:zh_TW,fcitx:zh_HK,fcitx:zh_SG,fcitx:ja_JP,fcitx:ko_KR,fcitx:vi_VN,fcitx
* Current override choice: (de_DE)
* Current automatic choice: none
* Number of valid choices: 1 (normally 1)
The override rule is defined in /etc/default/im-config.
The configuration set by im-config is activated by re-starting X.
Explicit selection is not required to enable the automatic
configuration if the active one is default/auto/cjkv/missing.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
I had started the new Jabref (4.3.1) from the folder in which I keep it
by using
~/JABREF-4.3.1$ java -jar JabRef-4.3.1.jar
I noticed that synaptic has an old jabref, which I now removed
completely via synaptic. Now the export of Umlaute works. No idea, what
went wrong before.
MY FIRST QUESTION REMAINS:
1. If I want to save or select a file, the menu opens BEHIND the Jabref.
How can I get it in the forground?
Thanks for help,
Wolfgang
