Correctly export RIS fields SP and EP if double dash "--" is used for range in bibtex pages

[groenoord]

JabRef version

5.15 (latest release)

Operating system

GNU / Linux

Details on version and operating system

Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS

Checked with the latest development build (copy version output from About dialog)

• I made a backup of my libraries before testing the latest development version.
• I have tested the latest development version and the problem persists

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

1. Use double dash "--" in a page range in bibtex "pages" field. E.g. "pages = {13905--13911}"
2. Export as RIS
3. Fields SP and EP contain the whole range: "SP - 13905–13911" and "EP - 13905–13911"
4. The correct behavior can only be achieved if a single dash "-" is used in the bibtex "pages" field.
