URL too long for PDF - how to break?

Post by kickdown »

Hi,

I got a bibtex entry looking similar to this:

Code: Select all

@Misc{Key1,
author = {Name Name},
title = {The Title Book},
howpublished = {online},
year = {2009},
note = {\url{http://www.slideshare.net/FuquaMarketing/cmo-survey-february-2009-highlights-and-insights-1064716} - last checked 24.09.2010},
}
But if I convert this into a PDF via PDFLatex the part "cmo-survey-february-2009-highlights-and-insights-1064716" is does not fit on the page and excesses the page border.

How do I break this URL?
I does not work with \\ or \newline.

thank you for help

Try the breakurl package or the corresponding command from the hyperref package. See package manuals for details.


Best regards and welcome to the board

Thank you for the answer, but the breaklinks from \hyperref does not work and the breakurl is only for dvips driver and not for pdflatex.

I dont know if I explaind it the right way. The URL are broken at each / but it is not broken at the filename (see picture).

Any other suggestions?
