TeX - LaTeX Asked on December 19, 2020
I am using biblatex
with the biber
-backend. Is there a possibility, to limit the number of items listed in the bibliography to a given number per page? E.g., I want to have a new page after 10 bibliography items.
Thanks a lot.
One simple way of doing this that should work for most setups is the following.
documentclass[british]{article}
usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
usepackage{babel}
usepackage{csquotes}
usepackage[style=numeric, backend=biber]{biblatex}
newcounter{bibitemcount}
renewbibmacro{finentry}{%
finentry
ifbibliography
{stepcounter{bibitemcount}%
ifnumless{value{bibitemcount}}{10}
{}
{newpage
setcounter{bibitemcount}{0}}}
{}%
}
addbibresource{biblatex-examples.bib}
begin{document}
nocite{*}
printbibliography
end{document}
It may, however, be a bit nicer to add the code to start a new page in the bibliography environment. That is style dependent, so less portable. The example below is for style=numeric
. The original defbibenvironment{bibliography}
for that style can be found in numeric.bbx
(ll. 20-33 in biblatex v3.15a).
documentclass[british]{article}
usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
usepackage{babel}
usepackage{csquotes}
usepackage[style=numeric, backend=biber]{biblatex}
newcounter{bibitemcount}
defbibenvironment{bibliography}
{list
{printtext[labelnumberwidth]{%
printfield{labelprefix}%
printfield{labelnumber}}}
{setlength{labelwidth}{labelnumberwidth}%
setlength{leftmargin}{labelwidth}%
setlength{labelsep}{biblabelsep}%
addtolength{leftmargin}{labelsep}%
setlength{itemsep}{bibitemsep}%
setlength{parsep}{bibparsep}}%
renewcommand*{makelabel}[1]{hss##1}}
{endlist}
{stepcounter{bibitemcount}%
ifnumless{value{bibitemcount}}{11}
{}
{newpage
setcounter{bibitemcount}{0}}%
item}
addbibresource{biblatex-examples.bib}
begin{document}
nocite{*}
printbibliography
end{document}
