For my scientific article I need to use some sources that are in Korean, which is why I've switched from using pdflatex\bibtex to xelatex and biber.
I've managed to get biblatex with apa style working (through other posts on this site). But I've encountered several problems so far and I am not sure whats causing them.
I am facing the following four problems now:
- The bibliography is not sorted (even though I used sorting=nyt).
- If there is more than one source from one year, biblatex automatically adds an sorting system (by adding an a, b, c and so on), how can I disable this?
- The issue of the journal is not displayed in the bibliography.
- The text is not adjusted correctly, as can be seen in the pdf.
My MWE:
\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{article}
\usepackage{polyglossia}
\usepackage{csquotes}
\usepackage[backend=biber,style=apa,sorting=nyt]{biblatex}
\DeclareLanguageMapping{american}{american-apa}
