[Tex/LaTex] Question marks instead of quotation marks in references

babelbiblatexcsquotes

I am using BibLaTeX and Babel (catalan) and I get a weird error in the bibliography:the quotation marks are replaced by question marks. If a deactivate Babel everything works.

Babel:

Code:

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{csquotes}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{setspace}
\usepackage[backend=bibtex,sorting=none]{biblatex}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage[margin=2cm]{caption}
\usepackage[catalan]{babel}
\usepackage{float}
\usepackage{wasysym}
\usepackage{pifont}
\onehalfspacing
\usepackage[top=0.79in, bottom=0.79in, left=1.18in, right=0.79in]{geometry}
\renewcommand{\thefootnote}{\arabic{footnote}}
\addbibresource{bib.bib}
\begin{document}
[...]
\printbibliography
\end{document}

Result:

Without Babel:

Code:

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{csquotes}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{setspace}
\usepackage[backend=bibtex,sorting=none]{biblatex}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage[margin=2cm]{caption}
%\usepackage[catalan]{babel}
\usepackage{float}
\usepackage{wasysym}
\usepackage{pifont}
\onehalfspacing
\usepackage[top=0.79in, bottom=0.79in, left=1.18in, right=0.79in]{geometry}
\renewcommand{\thefootnote}{\arabic{footnote}}
\addbibresource{bib.bib}
\begin{document}
[...]
\printbibliography
\end{document}

Best Answer

The problem comes from csquotes. Either set the quoting style on loading, via

 \usepackage[style=english]{csquotes}

or if this is only a problem in the bibliography itself, issue 

\setquotestyle{english}

just before \printbibliography.

Sample output

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article}

\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[style=english]{csquotes}
\usepackage[backend=bibtex,sorting=none]{biblatex}
\usepackage[catalan]{babel}

\begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib}
@Article{test,
  author =   {Author, A. N.},
  title =    {Title},
  journaltitle = {J. J.},
  year =     2000,
  volume =   15,
  number =   1,
  pages =    {4-8}
}
\end{filecontents}
\addbibresource{\jobname.bib}

\begin{document}
\nocite{*}
\printbibliography

\end{document}

Note that it would be better style to load babel before both csquotes and biblatex. Both these packages will use the options passed to babel when possible. Unfortunately csquotes doesn't know catalan, yet.
