Formatting of footnotes

Post by hormiga123 »

I am not quite happy with the default format of the footnotes, i.e. if possible I'd like them to be not indented and instead with a vertical space between them. Is that possible?

Thanks already...

The footmisc package could be useful. Refer to the documentation.

This is a nice hint and I tried it to solve a different bunch of problems, but it introduces a new one. The footmisc package doesn't doesn't split long URLs that are wider than the page. I tried the standard trick of adding white space inside \url{} but it didn't work. A standard footnote does correctly split the URL with or without added white space.

I used it like this:
\usepackage[perpage,para,symbol*]{footmisc}

and the place footmisc failed to split the URL was:
\footnote{\url{http://www.realclimate.org/index.php/archives/2008/05/how-to-cook-a-graph-in-three-easy-lessons/}}

Any ideas?

Hi!

This is interesting for me too. Either

Code: Select all

\usepackage[breaklinks=true]{hyperref}
neither breakurl package

Code: Select all

\usepackage{breakurl}
with

Code: Select all

\burl{http://www.realclimate.org/index.php/archives/2008/05/how-to-cook-a-graph-in-three-easy-lessons/}
gives no result in my «footmisc» footnotes! Although in text body long hiperlinks are breakable fine without any of above additions.

May be, I need to set driver somehow otherwise?

Code: Select all

\ifx\pdfoutput\undefined
\usepackage[unicode,dvips]{hyperref}
\else
\usepackage[bookmarks=true,bookmarksopen=true,bookmarksnumbered=true,
backref=true,pagebackref,hyperfigures=true,hyperfootnotes=true,unicode,
pdfstartview=Fit,pdfpagemode=UseOutlines,
colorlinks,linkcolor=red165,citecolor=green102,urlcolor=blue153]{hyperref}

\AtBeginDocument{\renewcommand{\ref}[1]{\mbox{\autoref{#1}}}} % Автоматически именует плавающие объекты и заголовки (по умолчанию пишет "Figure" и т.д.)

\fi
