I read the posts about adding accents in Biber this way:

\{'a}

but this is not working with the letter i. What can I do?

The correct syntax is {\'a} and {\'i}:

\begin{filecontents*}{\jobname.bib}
@article{gh,
  author = {Gonzalo Higua{\'i}n},
  title = {How to score goals},
  journal = {Naples Journal of Soccer},
  year = 2016,
}
@article{mc,
  author = {M{\'a}rtin C{\'a}ceres},
  title = {How not to be scored goals},
  journal = {Hurr{\`a} Juventus},
  year = 2016,
}
\end{filecontents*}

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{biblatex}

\addbibresource{\jobname.bib}

\begin{document}

\cite{gh} and \cite{mc}

\printbibliography

\end{document}

enter image description here

On the other hand, direct input is possible by using UTF-8:

\begin{filecontents*}{\jobname.bib}
@article{gh,
  author = {Gonzalo Higuaín},
  title = {How to score goals},
  journal = {Naples Journal of Soccer},
  year = 2016,
}
@article{mc,
  author = {Mártin Cáceres},
  title = {How not to be scored goals},
  journal = {Hurrà Juventus},
  year = 2016,
}
\end{filecontents*}

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{biblatex}

\addbibresource{\jobname.bib}

\begin{document}

\cite{gh} and \cite{mc}

\printbibliography

\end{document}

  • Is the {\'i} syntax specific to bibliographies? I was familiar with \'\i, but it appears that the dotless i \i doesn't work here, even when wrapped in curly brackets. – PatrickT Jul 03 '18 at 17:08
