Hi all, a) I've reported this before; I ca1n't seem to wrap long URLs across lines in XeTeX
$ pdfinfo x.pdf Title: x Subject: x Author: Mohamed Bana Creator: ConTeXt - 2008.10.31 13:58 Producer: xdvipdfmx (0.7.3) CreationDate: Tue Dec 1 17:19:25 2009 ModDate: Tue Dec 1 00:00:00 2009 Tagged: no Pages: 1 Encrypted: no Page size: 595.28 x 841.89 pts (A4) File size: 37209 bytes Optimized: no PDF version: 1.5 If I do this in LuaTeX it seems to work fine. \useURL[doilink][http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/32.689404][][\hyphenatedurl{ http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/32.689404}] \from[doilink] But with XeTeX it insists on overflowing into the margins or into another column. Does anyone have a workaround? $ pdfinfo x.pdf Title: x Subject: x Author: Mohamed Bana Creator: ConTeXt - 2009.12.01 17:09 Producer: LuaTeX-0.46.0 CreationDate: Tue Dec 1 17:30:14 2009 ModDate: Tue Dec 1 00:00:00 2009 Tagged: no Pages: 2 Encrypted: no Page size: 595.276 x 841.89 pts (A4) File size: 32262 bytes Optimized: no PDF version: 1.5 In this latest version I don't even need the \hyphenatedurl macro :). b) And please, guys, will you just include a macro that will take a URL as a parameter and typeset it. Having to do \useURL[doilink][http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/32.689404][][\hyphenatedurl{ http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/32.689404}] \from[doilink] is just unnecessary. I'm thinking \typeurl[<url>], that's it. c) Is there something wrong with using \footnote{<text>} whilst in a column? I can send the full example off-list. Just ping me. Thank you, —Mohamed
