I'm trying to set up BibDesk's preview function to work with biblatex. I've
copied the biblatex.bst file to the appropriate BibTex folder, and I've
added the line "\usepackage[style=authoryear]{biblatex}" to the TeX template
file. It seems that the biblatex installation itself is also set up
correctly--the log indicates that it's finding the .cbx, .lbx etc. files.
The hangup (one of the hangups?) seems to be that the .aux file is not
producing a \bibdata line as biblatex expects it to (I've pasted the log
below).
Has anyone gotten preview working with biblatex? I'm a newbie and I may be
missing something important (maybe something else in the TeX template?).
Thanks for any help!
