General ⇒ List of Acronyms

[S_David]

Hello all,

I have the following segment of code in latex

Code: Select all

\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{article}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{acronym}
\begin{document}

\section*{Acronyms}
\begin{acronym}
\acro{MRC}{Maximal Ratio Combining} \acro{QoS }{Quality of Service}
\acro{MIMO}{Multiple Input Multiple Output} \acro{RF }{Radio
Frequency} \acro{TAS }{Transmit Antenna Selection}
\acro{VAA}{Virtual Antenna Array} \acro{ASER}{Average Symbol Error
Rate} \acrodef{SC}[SC]{Selection Combining} \acro{CSI }{Channel
State Information} \acro{AF  }{Amplify and Forward}
\acro{SNR}{Signal-to-Noise Ratio} \acro{CDF }{Cumulative
Distribution Function} \acro{PDF }{Probability Distribution
Function} \acro{MGF }{Moment Generating Function}
\acro{AWGN}{Additive White Gaussian Noise}
\end{acronym}

\end{document}

to create and generate a list of acronyms. Is there another elegant method to do this? I mean executing the above code does generate a list of acronyms, but the full names are not aligned under each other.

Thanks in advance

A short look at the acronym manual (Section 2.3 - Defining Acronyms, p. 3f) reveals that you have to add the longest entry as optional argument to the acronym environment.


Best regards

Thanks alot, the alignement problem is resolved. But I have two problems yet:

1- How to remove the page numbers from the acronym list?

2- Is there anyway to arrange the acronyms alphabetically automatically?

1- How to remove the page numbers from the acronym list? [...]

Your MWE doesn't produce page numbers in the list.

2- Is there anyway to arrange the acronyms alphabetically automatically? [...]

If so, the manual should furnish particulars.
