inputenc | Unicode Character not available

Post by horschti »

Hi,

I just converted from Bibtex to Biblatex and had to change the input-enconding from utf8x to utf8. Biblatex is incompatible with the package "ucs" that is indirectly loaded by utf8x as far as I can tell. The Latex distribution is Miktex 2.9. Editor: Texstudio.

Here`s the corresponding part of the preambel:

Code: Select all

\documentclass
[
	pdftex,
	a4paper,
	pagesize=auto,
	twoside=true,
	fontsize=12pt,
	chapterprefix=true,
	toc=bibliography,
	toc=listof,
	DIV=13,
]{scrbook}

% ******************************
% *Zeichenkodierung und Sprache*
% ******************************

\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[ngerman,english]{babel}
\selectlanguage{english}
\usepackage[babel]{csquotes}

% ***************
% *Bilbiographie*
% ***************

\usepackage[
	style=ieee,
	bibstyle=numeric,
	citation=numeric,
	sorting=none,
	hyperref=auto,
	isbn=false,
	url=false,
	doi=true,	
]{biblatex}

\bibliography{phdthesis}
So far, everything works fine. Except the error message:
"Package inputenc Error: Unicode char \u8:∕ not set up for use with LaTeX"

I just need to know what character or character combination "∕" is.
I think the error is coming from some author name in the bib-file, but I can not find anything. I already checked each entry manually. Google does not give any useful hints.

Maybe this resolve the second error, too.
"Package keyval Error: citation undefined \blx@processoptions" in biblatex.sty...

Hints and tips are highly appreciated. I already wasted the whole afternoon tracking down this stupid error. :oops:
