Fonts & Character Sets ⇒ registered trademark symbol in section

[_DoEasy]

Hi,

it's the first time for me having a trouble with latex for which i didn't find a solution.

I try to use the registered trademark symbol inside of a section, like following:

Code: Select all

\section{Test\textsuperscript{\textregistered}Test}

Which works, but my Latex environment (Kile) shows multiple warnings:

Code: Select all

I already found out that the problem concerns the trademark symbol. Trying out some hints I found in the internet didn't remove the warning (for example using the math environment for the symbol).

Does anyone know a solution or could give me hint !?

Welcome to the LaTeX community!

As you can see most are hyperref warnings. They tell you that the registered trademark symbol and superscripted text can not be used in the PDF bookmark. For such cases hyperref offers \texorpdfstring{TeX code}{PDF code}

Code: Select all

\documentclass{scrartcl}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\begin{document}

\section{Test\texorpdfstring{\textsuperscript{\textregistered}}{ (R)} Test}

\end{document}

The remaining warning tells you that the symbol is not available in the current font and that TeX uses another one instead for the symbol.

Regards

PS: for future questions: please try to always include a minimal working example.

Thanks a lot.

Now the warnings are gone, but the hyperref in the pdf shows

text(R)text

, isn't there a trademark symbol which can be used within the hyperref?
Inside the text the section looks perfect, a real trademark symbol is shown.

[cgnieder]

Quite to my surprise there is:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{scrartcl}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\begin{document}

\section{Test\texorpdfstring{\textsuperscript{\textregistered}}{\textregistered} Test}

\end{document}

I would have believed that the trademark symbol is not allowed in the PDF string but apparently it is.

Again, thanks a lot.

That is exactly what I was looking for!
