I personaly think a minimal example is not that helpfull since everything compiles without any errors unless iam using a build directory.

#Biblatex with jabref windows
bib-file saved by JabRef on either Windows or Linux, Notepad++ says (in the lower right) it is encoded Ansi as UTF-8 so I'm quite confused what is actually causing this if there aren't any encoding issues. I am running on Windows 7, 64 bit, miktex, texmaker, jabref mainly and also on xubuntu, 32 bit, texlive, texmaker, jabref. bib-file which is already encoded in utf-8 but when I add something, it produces the faulty parts. bib-file in utf-8 and still use the DOI to BibTeX feature? It's a bit odd JabRef can load the. JabRef can search by DOI, along with a number of other sources (arXiv, ISBN, Library of Congress, etc.): this is offered in the 'New entry' dialog from the Library menu for example. However I'd like to stay with utf-8-encoded files and try not to rework the faulty entries. Here are my options, which are equal for both installations (imported the options file into the other installation): In Ubuntu I installed the packages: biblatex texlive-latex-extra texlive-bibtex-extra. Setup JabRef to use the default encoding as UTF-8. It is working on Linux (Xubuntu 13.10 with version 2.10 beta): Step 1: Reconfigure encodings in Zotero and JabRef.

Here is a screenshot of the saved file opened in Notepad++: and the same for the final release for 2.10 for the doi 10.1051/jp2:1995145: it's the same with 2.10 beta3 on Windows:

I get this result on Windows (version 2.9): When I use the DOI to BibTeX feature in Jabref and import any DOI that leads to a source with special characters in its properties, say this one.
