After learning about latexmk I really would love to use it within TexStudio. For bibliography, I'm also using biber.

  • Is this possible?
  • It would be very nice, if perhaps somebody could give me a hint about how to configure this, please? (I am using Ubuntu 16.04 and TexLive)?

Yes it is possible and also quite easy.:

  • Go to Configurate TexStudio and then choose Commands, scroll down and insert in latexmk latexmk -lualatex -silent -latexoption="-synctex=1" %
  • Be carefull with scrolling it may change what you have entered without noticing it (this was my mistake all the time)

Example configuration

  • If using the option -lualatex there is no need for -pdf
  • -synctex=1 flag allows you to jump between the pdf-viewer and the editor by simple clicking on the desired part.
  • Important notice: Latexmk: Run number X of rule 'pdflatex' doesn't mean you are using pdflatex, because the 'pdflatex' is handled as placeholder. It is using lualatex (when you use the -lualatex Option) (See Note 2 in the offical manual)
