References for poster
sfwolfphys opened this issue · 5 comments
Some may want to use references with their poster. I tried it, but had unsatisfying results. I've put a MWE here:
https://gist.github.com/sfwolfphys/e3580f1e24d5dda515c99fb91f21be37
The short version is that:
- The references heading that adding a bibliography usually generates is small (not using
\fontsizesection
. - It puts an
*
right before the references. See screenshot near the references:
I have the same issue, is there any way to fix it? Even a hacky one?
It has to do with un-numbered sections. If you put a \section*{example} you will find the same behaviour. Maybe forcing a white box in that specific space could temporarily fix it? I am not an expert with latex hacks.
Found a temporal fix: Add to you preamble
\makeatletter
\renewenvironment{thebibliography}[1]
{\section{\bibname}% <-- this line was changed from \chapter* to \section
\@mkboth{\MakeUppercase\bibname}{\MakeUppercase\bibname}%
\list{\@biblabel{\@arabic\c@enumiv}}%
{\settowidth\labelwidth{\@biblabel{#1}}%
\leftmargin\labelwidth
\advance\leftmargin\labelsep
\@openbib@code
\usecounter{enumiv}%
\let\p@enumiv\@empty
\renewcommand\theenumiv{\@arabic\c@enumiv}}%
\sloppy
\clubpenalty4000
\@clubpenalty \clubpenalty
\widowpenalty4000%
\sfcode`\.\@m}
{\def\@noitemerr
{\@latex@warning{Empty `thebibliography' environment}}%
\endlist}
\makeatother
I had the same problem.
For my citations I use biblatex so I put:
\usepackage[]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{biblio.bib}
at the preample, and where I want to print the bibliography I put this code:
\section{References}
\printbibliography[heading=none]
The heading=none
parameter removes both the asterisk *
and the heading. I add the heading with the \section{References}
command.
I hope this helps someone.
