Re: Acronym package log entry

Well, you're considerably more learned about this than I am. I therefore feel relief when I find myself in agreement with you in regard to the irrelevancy of the message. It's as though there should be a log entry every time something happens the way it's supposed to! THAT'S keeping life positive ...

Acronym package log entry

Hi,

Thanks for your response.

MWE:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{acronym}

\acrodef{ABC}{A Bit Crazy}

\begin{document}

First time: \ac{ABC}.

Second time: \ac{ABC}.

Third time: \ac{ABC}.

\end{document}

That's not quite minimal in that I invoke \ac{ABC} three times, whereas only the ...

Acronym package log entry

Using the acronym package, every instance of my invocation of \ac{} results in a log entry:

Package acronym Info: Label `acro:ABC' newly defined as it shall be overridden although it is yet undefined on input line 5.

I really am not sure of the meaning of this and am wondering if someone might ...

Page number positions with pdflscape and rotating

Hi,

Thanks for taking the time to ready my posting.

I'm having a problem with moving page numbers when I use the pdflscape and the rotating packages together. In the first MWE, where rotating is included using clockwise rotations:



\documentclass[12pt]{article}

\usepackage{pdflscape ...

epstopdf | Disable Compression

I, too, will do my part to prevent this thread from finally dying.

I suspect the reason your stuff went "berserk" is because you failed to add the switch "--enable-write18" to the command line when executing LaTeX. The need for this is documented in the epstopdf package manual (page 2 of v2.5, for ...

Re: hyperref | Expanding Arguments and PDFLaTeX

Ahhh, but I do need the \lowercase! The reason for this is that there are many, many invocations of \codefilename in my document, and many could have accidentally-added uppercase characters. For the sake of uniformity, I'd like the \codefilename macro to ensure that each code file name comes out ...

hyperref | Expanding Arguments and PDFLaTeX

Hi Thorsten,

As always, thanks very much for your reply.

My apologies; I should have mentioned that I had explored \texorpdfstring already. Perhaps I have missed the obvious, but I'm not sure how using that macro allows me to address all my concerns. I assume you were thinking that I should employ ...

"Floating" longtable, float, and afterpage placement issue

I stuggled with this one quite a while! Eventually, I contacted David Carlise; he was very kind to suggest simply including the remaining floats in \afterpage such as:


\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{array,longtable,lipsum,afterpage,pdflscape}
\begin{document}
\textbf{\lipsum[1]}
\afterpage ...

hyperref | Expanding Arguments and PDFLaTeX

Hello,

Thanks for reading my question.

I've made a command called "\codefilename"; the argument is always set to lower case, uses a specific font, and cannot be hyphenated. The command works great in the body of text, however, when I use it in a section title, hyperref reminds me that it can't ...

"Floating" longtable, float, and afterpage placement issue

Hi,

Thanks for reading my inquiry.

My issue concerns (sideways / landscape) longtable, the afterpage package, and (figure) float placement. In particular, the latter seems to behave in what is, for me at the moment, an undesireable manner.

Having encountered the need to include a large landscape ...
