Multi-columned Bibliography on Poster

Post by pmxrs3 »

I wondered if anyone could help me with the alignment of columns in multicol. I'm using beamerposter and BibTeX. The bibliography contains two column but the first one is lower than the second. An example of code is:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[final]{beamer}
\usetheme{RJH}
\usepackage[orientation=portrait,size=a1,scale=0.5,debug]{beamerposter}
\usepackage[absolute,overlay]{textpos}
\setlength{\TPHorizModule}{1cm}
\setlength{\TPVertModule}{1cm}

\begin{document}
\begin{frame}{} 
 \begin{textblock}{26.7}(30.7,13.5)
\begin{block}{References}
\vspace*{-2ex}
\begin{Large}
\begin{multicols}{2}
     \bibliographystyle{unsrt}
 \bibliography{Periodforcing.bib}
\end{multicols}
\end{Large}
 \vspace*{-2ex}
\end{block}
\end{textblock}

Thanks for your time.

Your example doesn't work. I managed to get something by adding some lines, but I still don't have your bibliography database and there are no \cite or \nocite commands anyway.

You might try the balance package, though I don't know whether that works with beamer.
