koma-biber-minimal-example

Purpose of this project

This is a mininal LaTeX document testing KOMA Script class with biber.

Requirements

This example uses up-to-date technology like pdflatex, biblatex (instead of BibTeX-Format), and biber (instead of bibtex-compiler). You should be familiar with compiling LaTeX documents by yourself. If you are new to LaTeX please get basic knowledge from tutorial pages such as this one.

Why?

Unfortunately, biber is not that popular yet. This leads to software version incompatibilities I faced multiple times with MiKTeX or MiKTeX portable.

To test these software packages, I use this minimal example here with:

pdflatex bibtex-minimal-example
biber bibtex-minimal-example
pdflatex bibtex-minimal-example
pdflatex bibtex-minimal-example

If the software is working properly, you should get bibtex-minimal-example.pdf with correct citations. In order to compare this PDF result to the way is should look like, I have added the file expected-result.pdf.
