TeX: LaTeX: PCTeX: Url: Create: How to: How to create a clickable url?
[http://www / hyperref]
---
Steps: Overview:
1. -Create the following LaTeX program
--- cut here: begin --------------------------------------------------
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[dvips, bookmarks, colorlinks=true, plainpages = false,
citecolor = green, urlcolor = blue, filecolor = blue] {hyperref}
\begin{document}
\url{ http://www.faqts.com }
\end{ document }
--- cut here: end ----------------------------------------------------
2. -Compile this LaTeX program in PCTeX
3. -Convert it to PDF to see the clickable URL
---
---
Tested successfully on Microsoft Windows XP Professional, running
PCTeX v5.1,
after manually installing the
hyperref package.
---
---
Troubleshooting:
-If you get the error that 'hyperref.sty' is not found,
then install the 'hyperref' package manually in PCTex.
---
---
-Spaces
It is very important that you do
not include spaces around your URL,
otherwise your URL will be interpreted
as a relative URL
(=relative to the site where it is currently stored)
---
e.g.
<URL> http://www.faqts.com </URL>
---
is interpreted like
http://www.knud.info%20/http://www.faqts.com%20
---
---
Thus you should not include spaces around
your URL
---
e.g.
<URL>http://www.faqts.com</URL>
---
is now correctly interpreted like
http://www.faqts.com
---
