Compiling the document

Run the following command, when your main TeX document is document.tex:

$ lualatex document.tex

If you use a bibliography, you will have to execute the following commands:

$ lualatex document.tex
$ bibtex8 document.aux
$ lualatex document.tex

Otherwise, if you use TeXStudio, you could also use following magic comments:
