Dear all,

My .tex and .bib files are at the end of the email. The commands I run are

   context bibtry && context bibtry

The first `context bibtry` is ok but no .bbl file generated. The second one
complains

   publications   : loading database from bibtry.bbl
   (bibtry.bbl
   ! Text line contains an invalid utf-8 sequence.
   l.22 n=2,s=
              0Š20Š20Š20Š286]

Can t-bib do with Chinese bib entry? or is it just a problem of bibtex?

I'm using MkIV(current trunk) and t-bib(march 2, 2009).


BTW. Is only absolute path can be used in \setupbibtex?


Thanks.

Best wishes,
Wei-Wei Guo

you might want to look into mlbibtex then (it supports context)

Thanks for replying.

I'm just a ordinary user. Studying another package might be too cost for me. :)


Best wishes,

The bib module should be able to handle anything as long as it
is encoded in utf-8 (especially in mkiv). I have no idea what
bibtex does/doesn't accept as input, but I am sure it will not
reencode the database for you, so perhaps it is just a simple
encoding issue.

No, but bibtex needs BIBINPUTS and BSTINPUTS variables that have to be
set up correctly (and probably are not, if you are using garden minimals)

Best wishes,
Taco

I'm sure that the files are encoded in UTF-8. Do you get any error with the
example files posted in my previous email?

I tried now: bibtex outputs rubbish for the 's' key (probably because
it takes the first byte of an utf-8 sequence only). You'll have to
edit or remove those keys by hand in the generated bbl.

Best wishes,
Taco
