Custom Bibliography title doesnt work for typst rendering

[ejjunju]

This is my yaml. Note under language i have section-title-references: "Referanser" but it seems that Quarto rendering to typst doesnt change the "Bibilography" title to what i want i.e "Referanser" which is expected for norwegian. it keeps Bibliography as the title.

I am working with RStudio 2026.08.1 Build 195

Converting to discussion.

First, if you want to change the language, it's easier to use lang rather than providing multiple translations which might already exist in Quarto.

• https://github.com/quarto-dev/quarto-cli/tree/main/src/resources/language

Regarding Typst Bibliography. The default is to use the Typst native built-in tooling as described in the documentation: https://quarto.org/docs/output-formats/typst.html#bibliography

language.section-title-references is not used for Typst.
You can easily add it modifying the biblio.typ partial: https://quarto.org/docs/journals/templates.html#typst-partials
