How to add an email address

Post by kuki »

Hi, doesn't anybody know how to put an email address into latex document?

my email is "name.surname@gmail.com", but if I use plain text only without any command and then I click on it in final pdf file, it offers me only link ".surname@gmail.com" which is also used in email client. I have absolutely no clue what to do with it.

Thank you for any advice

Hi kuki,

welcome to the board!
You could use the hyperref package, for example:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{hyperref}
...
\href{mailto:name.surname@gmail.com}{name.surname@gmail.com}
