@pkgw I confirm: _there's an even newer version of biber:_ [`2.18`](https://github.com/plk/biber/releases/tag/v2.18) _that requires a newer version of biblatex_. We're good on the next to last one, see: https://github.com/tectonic-typesetting/tectonic/issues/893#issuecomment-1270156377. I can...

@pkgw You make great questions! TeX Live 2022 has `biber 2.17` and `biblatex 3.17`: the version numbers match each other, so a minor version would be compatible with the equivalent...

@pkg Additional info can be found under the [documentation](https://ctan.fisiquimicamente.com/macros/latex/contrib/biblatex/doc/biblatex.pdf) search for the _"compatibility matrix"_ table. `biber` releases lag `biblatex` ones, but if you match both minor versions you're good to...

ping @davidmjones, is this fixed under `tectonic 0.11.0`?

@davidmjones See: https://github.com/tectonic-typesetting/tectonic/issues/41#issuecomment-305508631 I feel you, XeTeX is not actively maintained... 😢

Idea: _a configuration file for every project that allows a `paper-size` value._ This could be integrated with the current `Tectonic.toml` V2 architecture, and would make tectonic projects as closed bundles,...

In the TeX Live world, most classes have size options like letterpaper and a4paper, so you can directly specify it `\documentclass[a4paper]{article}` together with type of document. Another choice, as @lluchs...

@lluchs passing `a4paper` to both the document class or the `geometry` package should work. You’re telling that the first of them doesn’t work for neither tectonic nor TeX Live, can...

About the default, I know that `letter` is huge in some countries. It was huge when I was in Latin America and I'm aware that is in the U.S. too....

Hey @andronat, there's also the possibility of changing that directly in the package, like: `\usepackage[mincrossrefs=1000]{biblatex}` The issue seems fixed with the new `-Z min-crossrefs` option above. Are you ok with...
