You must use pdflatex or lualatex to compile the document.But if you decide to use a different PDF viewer, substitute that viewer's filename for "mupdf". I'd recommend you use mupdf too, because it easily pulls up web pages from PDF URLs. The examples and shellscripts in this document use program mupdf to view PDF files. This route is built upon a few key distinctions. If you use Linux with the TeXLive version of LaTeX, this document shows you an easy route to colored, clickable and correctly wrapping URLs in your PDF document. Meanwhile, as you begin to tear your hair out, your friends imply that you must be stupid or something. Somebody even suggests installing package burl, which you can't even find in CTAN. No, don't do that, it makes different lines non-clickable! Use \sloppy. Use the hyperref package with breaklinks=true. Well, yes, use hyperref but don't set colorlinks=true! No wait, instead of colorlinks=true use some other package. ![]() The advice is plentiful: Use the url package. ![]() What caused all this seeming intermittence is your choice of which Internet advice combination you followed. If that ever happens, save a copy and make it read-only, so you can go back to it. And once in a blue moon, when the stars align exactly right, it's clickable, wrapable and colored. Sometimes it wraps, with some of the lines clickable and others not. Sometimes it clicks just fine but walks right off the right side of the paper. As you experiment, sometimes your URL wraps but won't bring up the URL if you click it. And then your problems start multiplying, big time. No problem, you go online to find an answer. ![]() But nooooo!Īnd what makes it worse is many of your friends say they have no problem doing this - what's wrong with you? All you want is to be able to put colored, clickable, wrapping URLs in your LyX document, so that when you click them, a browser shows the contents of the URL, they're colored to show they're not just more text, and instead of walking off the right side of the paper, they wrap pretty much as other text would wrap.
