Development repository for biblatex support for the ACM article class (acmart).

This is a working space to develop proper biblatex support for the ACM article class, that can be found at https://github.com/borisveytsman/acmart/

Relevant files

The bibliography style files are the following:

  • ACM-Reference-Format.bst : the official ACM BibTeX style
  • acmnumeric.* : biblatex support based on the one shipped with acmart, where it is called ACM-Reference-Format.{bbx,cbx,dbx}, and only supports numeric citation style.
  • acmauthoryear.* : biblatex support for authoryear citation style

Support files

The software.* and the *.lbx files are part of the biblatex-software package. They are needed only if you do not have a recent TeXLive distribution.

Test files

In order to test the biblatex implementations, comparing with the bibtex one, the following files are included:

  • main-bibtex.tex : sample document that uses bibtex for a journal like PACMPL
  • main-acmnumeric.tex : the same document, adapted to use the biblatex support included with the acmart standard distribution, that uses a numeric citation style
  • main-acmauthoryear.tex : the same document, adapted to use the new acmauthoryear biblatex style

These files use the samplebody.tex and samble-base.bib files extracted from the official acmart distribution.

Compiling

Typing make will compile all these files, making it easier to see the differences between the original bibtex version and the new biblatex version.
