In Rmarkdown,
we can generate pdf file if we use the bib file from a url.
For example, we set
bibliography: [https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ChoCho66/test/main/text.bib]
In bookdown, we can also generate html book (gitbook, bs4_book)
if we use the bib file from a url.
But pdf_book doesn't work.
It has the following message.
! Undefined control sequence.
\hyper#normalise ...M{ }\catcode `\%\active \let %
\#percentchar \let \%\#per...
l.430 ...content.com/ChoCho66/test/main/text.bib}}
The tex file has wrong since the following:
\bibliography{\url{https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ChoCho66/test/main/text.bib}}
Is there any way to solve this problem?
I want a common code that can compile both html book and pdf book if we use bib url file.

I am wanting to do in text citations for my dissertation. I will upload a simplified version of what i am seeing. The issue is that i keep getting "undefined citations" where i only get the citation key out in my pdf irrespective of which compiler i use.
I also keep getting an error saying that the bibliography is empty. But when my friend uses the exact code i have and copies the references and everything into his overleaf environment it works. I could not get it working with miktex and texmaker. Please help
I have checked a lot of articles of what is available and i swear im following what they are doing but i cant get any further
Initially, my idea is to pull the citations from another file because ill be using these citations in multiple documents. I have successfully setup the .bib file which will update as i add more references to Zotero (my reference manager). I tried to pull citations from the .bib file by coding in the file directory, but no luck there.
I then tried to not use the "file directory approach" and just have a references file in the same folder as the .tex file. But that didnt work either.
my code is as follows:
\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage{geometry}
\usepackage{latexsym}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage[style=ieee]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{refs.bib} %%updated from References.bib

Extra information:
The following screenshots are of the Project folder
First, latexsym is an old package superseded by amssymb. I looked at the file and its last update was in 1998!
As to your issues, assuming your text file is main.tex, try the following:
Clean your project folder from all auxiliary *.aux; the best way to do that is to issue latexmk -C in your project folder.
Additionally, remove main.bbl
make sure your *.bib file is in the root project folder
add backend=biber to list of options of biblatex.
Then, run:
pdflatex main.tex # or xelatex main.tex or lualatex main.tex etc.
biber main
pdflatex main.tex # see above
Without *.bbl file, the first run of pdflatex does not produce any reference list and latex may issue a warning. With an old *.bbl file, you will get wrong citations. After the whole sequence is executed, main.pdf should have the correct citation and a reference list.
Remember \bibliography is incompatible with biblatex. The correct macro to create bibliography list is \printbibliography. It will issue \section* in article or \chapter* in report/book for a title and format it according to settings in a document class.
Here, I created References.bib with a dummy article:
#ARTICLE{schmidtPreprocessingMethodologyEnhance2019,
author = {Other, Anthony Norman},
title = {Some things I did},
year = {2014},
journal = {J.~Irrep. Res.},
volume = {1},
number = {1},
pages = {1-10}
}
and run the code as suggested, and frankly I get expected results without any errors!
The full code:
\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage{geometry}
\usepackage{amssymb} %superseds latexsym
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage[backend=biber,style=ieee]{biblatex}

The answer as suggested by #samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz
is that I was not using biber.
To do this on textmaker proceed to Options/Configure Textmaker. A configuration window will appear. Under the Commands Window locate "Bib(la)tex" and set the designation to "biber %". This will solve the issue.
Setting Update
A similar procedure can be followed on texstudios
See the below link on how to make sure textmaker uses this setting for reference.

thank you for everyones efforts in solving this problem.
I am having trouble knitting a pdf document with RMarkdown when embedding images. When using the markdown syntax below:
I get the error:
Package pdftex.def Error: File `~/folder/folder/filename.png' not found: using draft setting.
I have also tried:
``` {r results = 'asis'}
knitr::include_graphics(path = "~/folder/folder/filename.png")
```
And, I get the error:
Unescaped left brace in regex is passed through in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m//\nobreakspace { <-- HERE }/folder/folder/filename/ at C:\Users\NAME~1\AppData\Roaming\TinyTeX\texmf-dist\scripts\texlive\tlmgr.pl line 1847.

I have tinytex installed, but maybe I am missing another LaTeX package? Any guidance would be appreciated.
First, as #samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz recommended above, the tilde character cannot be interpreted from Markdown to LaTeX.
Additionally, I had my markdown file in one subfolder and my images in another subfolder. When I was knitting the markdown file, the working directory changes to the subfolder that the markdown file is in causing the file path provided for the images to no longer be understood when using the path folder/folder/filename.png. You can either move the markdown file to the main directory or set the entire file path.
If you move the markdown file to the main directory the file path can look like:
or keep in the subfolder and use:
The same goes for using knitr's include_graphics function.
This is my first time with overleaf. I have a latex template, and when I try to compile it shows the following error:
Emergency stop.

I am not sure what to do.
Can someone please suggest how I can solve this problem?
In case you need some more information, then please let me know. I will add here.
Edit: header file that is throwing error: http://www.itextpad.com/pH0GJ5Bfmg
The document you have provided is simply a preamble file. It does not contain the document body \begin{document} ... \end{document} hence the Emergency stop fatal error.
What you should do is save this file under some name, say mypreamble.tex. Create a new .tex file and have both files under the same file directory. Finally, in the new file
\include{mypreamble.tex}
\begin{document}
\thesistitle
\section{Section 1}
/*
* Write stuff and commands here
*/
\end{document}
The file you have provided does not seem to be a classic template which you copy-paste, change some fields and have your product. It seems to look more like a file containing some functions and predefinitions which helps you structure your file in a certain way. I would suggest looking for another template that includes a document main body, which you would be able to implement and use immediately.
I would like to ask how to write some Chinese characters (simplified) within an English Latex document? I followed some methods suggested online but none of them are working for me. I am using Texworks to compile my document (pdfLatex).
\usepackage{CJKutf8}
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{CJKutf8}
\begin{document}
\begin{CJK}{UTF8}{bsmi}
你好吗
\end{CJK}
\end{document}
another method is mentioned here,
\usepackage{CJKutf8}
\newcommand{\zh}[1]{\begin{CJK}{UTF8}{gbsn}#1\end{CJK}}
insert whatever Chinese characters you like into the document by typing
\zh{中文}
The error I receive is as following when using the method of CJKutf8 with pdfLaTeX mentioned here,
The log file hopefully contains the information to get MiKTeX going again:
C:\Users\muhd_\AppData\Local\MiKTeX\2.9\miktex\log\miktex-makepk.log
)
!pdfTeX error: miktex-pdftex.exe (file bsmiu30): Font bsmiu30 at 600 not found
==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!
Log file is attached here.
The first error in the log file
The process terminated due to an access violation.
suggests that there are some problems with permissions while trying to create the necessary files to use the font for the Chinese letters.
Based on this answer https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/419809/36296 the problem can be fixed by either runing updmap from the command line or Refresh font map files from within the miktex console (in user mode).
I'm working with a Windows machine. I use Rstudio/knitr to write and convert a (R)markdown file to an html file. The source markdown file contains some mathematics typed in the LaTeX language hence the html file contains some Mathjax.
For instance there is the following LaTeX code in the markdown file is:
$H_0:= \{|\mu_x-\mu_y|>S\}$
hence the expected output is:
This output correctly appears in the html file.
But now I try to convert this html file to a tex file:
pandoc -s myfile.html -o myfile.tex
And then I get the following code in the output tex file:
\textbackslash{}( H\_0:=
\textbackslash{}\{\textbar{}\textbackslash{}mu\_x-\textbackslash{}mu\_y\textbar{}\textgreater{}S\textbackslash{}\}
\textbackslash{}) où \textbackslash{}( S \textbackslash{})
which gives the following rendering after compiling with (pdf)latex:
