Fonts & Character Sets ⇒ Glossaries: abbreviation names in bold

[Matam]

One more help. Please, observe contents in the List of Abbreviations.
Abbreviation is normal font. But, the first letter of each word is in Bold. So, I want the abbreviations in bold.

Example: the first line is in my PDF is
BOP Best Output Power

But, I want
BOP (some gap here) Best Output Power

[Stefan Kottwitz]

Try this:

\renewcommand{\glsnamefont}[1]{\textbf{#1}}

I added the code. But, it did not work. The issue remained same.

THe code is:

Put \renewcommand{\glsnamefont}[1]{\textbf{#1}} before \printglossary, not afterwards.

Check your settings what is different. I see your names are written in italic shape (and uppercase) - where do you set this?

I have reinstalled my Textstudio and then executed the same code. It worked.
Please, find the attached screen shot. However, I need one more help: I want all the full abbreviations come in line. Example,

You could choose some of the tabular styles (longtable), see the glossaries manual, 15.1 Predefined Styles.

Stefan

[Matam]

Thanks for the quick response about the new reference. I have checked the 15.1. They have not given how to use the code or Examples. I am bit poor in understanding those terminology. Could you help me with some code that would be fine. Please,

[nlct]

The glossary style can be set globally using the style package option. For example:

Code: Select all

1
\usepackage[style=long]{glossaries}
 
 
הההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההה
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

or you can set it locally within the optional argument of \printglossary. For example:

Code: Select all

1
\printglossary[title=List of Abbreviations,type=\acronymtype,style=long]
 
 
הההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההה
