Making a bibliography fit on one page in Beamer through Quarto
When using Quarto, you can add a bibliography with something like
### References
::: {#refs}
:::
https://quarto.org/docs/authoring/footnotes-and-citations.html#bibliography-generation
However, if producing slides via
Beamer, the number of
references can cause the text to run off the slide. You can use the shrink
option to automatically reduce the font size to fit everything, or the
allowframebreaks
option to split the bibliography onto multiple pages.
### References {shrink=5}
::: {#refs}
:::
The numeric argument of shrink
is the minimum shrink size - making it too high
can yield strange results, so start with it small and increase if necessary.
### References {allowframebreaks=.9}
::: {#refs}
:::
The numeric argument of allowframebreaks
controls how much of a given frame is
allow to be filled. E.g. a value of “1” would use every inch of the slide - very
cluttered.
