General ⇒ Overfull hboxes

[theo moore]

I've always gotten these overfull hbox warnings when I've used Beamer:

test.tex:25:Overfull \hbox (54.66515pt too wide) detected
test.tex:0:Overfull \hbox (54.66515pt too wide) has occurred while \output is active

and I usually just ignore them.

However, today, I wanted to deal with them. But I can't seem to figure out what these warnings pop up. It's not a matter of text overrunning the boundaries (as is sometimes the case in a regular document). These warnings seem at odd places. Like for example, line 25 refers to \begin{document}. And what does it mean that there is an overfull on line 0?

Help me get rid of these annoying warnings!

Please post a minimum working example. Thanks!

Try to set \overfullrule to a nonzero length (like 5pt). Normally this causes thick black rectangles to be shown where the overfull boxes are.
