-If \emph{Arial} is not installed, however, \emph{Helvetica} (which is part of the \LaTeX\ core packages) is used as a fallback. This is usually a suitable alternative, since \emph{Arial} and

+\subsection{Using a different style or not using \textsf{biblatex}}\label{sec:bib-different}
 
 If you do not want or are not supposed to use neither the default Unified nor the APA/DGPs style, you can disable automatic \textsf{biblatex} loading via the class option \joption{biblatex=false} (see sec.~\ref{packageloading}). In this case, you will need to load
 your own style manually, by entering the respective \textsf{biblatex} or Bib\TeX\ commands.
 
 One case where you need to do that is if you prefer classic Bib\TeX\ over \textsf{biblatex}.
-If you want to follow the Applied Linguistics conventions, but prefer classic Bib\TeX\ over \textsf{biblatex}, a Bib\TeX\ style file \textsf{unified.bst} that implements the \emph{Unified Style Sheet for Linguistics} is available on the Internet.\footnote{\url{http://celxj.org/downloads/unified.bst}} Note, though, that this package does not have specific support for German, so it is only really suitable if you write in English. Thus, if you want to follow the Applied Linguistics conventions, it is strongly recommended that you use \textsf{biblatex} with the preloaded \textsf{univie-ling} style.
