Vertical Delimiters become horizontal

Post by FrankCPP »

Dear all,

I use vertical delimiters to separate items in my article.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[10pt]{article}
\begin{document}
\section{Research Interests}
corporate strategy | technology strategy | operations strategy
\end{document}
However, in the output PDF, the vertical delimiters unfortunately become horizontal. Why do the vertical delimiters change to horizontal ones? Please kindly help me on this issue.


Thank you.

Frank

Hi FrankCPP,

That seems strange. What if you replace | in your LaTeX code by \vert?

Use the right font encoding to get the desired output.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[10pt]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}   % Enable Cork Encoding

\begin{document}
  \section{Research Interests}
    corporate strategy | technology strategy | operations strategy
\end{document}

Best regards and welcome to the board
