Xelatex, biblatex and polyglossia

Post by timtico »

Hi,

I tried to look for a similar problem but could not find any. I hope that anybody with abit more experience can get me abit more insight in how I should be using biblatex with xelatex.

The problem lies somewhere that biblatex does not support UTF-8, a problem that i thought could be circumvented using polyglossia instead. however it's not working and I keep getting the following errors:

Code: Select all

Package csquotes Warning: Using preliminary 'polyglossia' interface.
(csquotes)                Some of the multilingual features may not
(csquotes)                work as expected.

Code: Select all

Latex warning Citation 'Wu2004' on page 1 undefined on input line 15
Minimal working example (but not working since you don't have the lib i'm using. Note that \citep probably won't be working since I didnt load the natbib package?

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{polyglossia}
\setmainlanguage{english}
\usepackage{csquotes}
\usepackage[bibstyle=numeric, citestyle=numeric-comp, sorting=none]{biblatex}%this style compresses the numbering 
\bibliography{cluster}
\begin{document}
sometext sometextsometextsom
test \citep{Wu2004}
\printbibliography
\end{document}

All help is really appreciated!

I've just seen your post, so maybe it's really to late.
Anyway, you should use the biber package, and it will support utf-8

best regards
