latexdiff overfull boxes due to bold font

Post by rgu »

Hello,

I was using the latexdiff command to view the differences between 2 tex files. In the earlier version, there was a very long sentence with bold font (i.e. \textbf bracketed the entire sentence). In the later version, \textbf{} was not used for the sentence in question. The file output by latexdiff showed the original sentence in bold crossed off, but it spanned an entire line, thereby creating an overfull box, instead of filling multiple lines. I checked the options that came with the latexdiff command, but none seemed to help.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Regards,

Richard

Hi Richard,

welcome to the board!

There was no answer yet, perhaps there were not enough details. If the problem hasn't been solved yet, perhaps post your (possible reduced) files in a way so that we can verify the problem. Of course, if you managed to solve it, we would be happy to read what was the cause.
