% A style file to provide various types of underlining that can stretch
% between words and be broken across lines. Use with LaTeX or plain TeX.
% In LaTeX this style replaces italics with underlining in \em-phasized text.
% It is most suitable for simple text such as {\em ibid.} or {\em \LaTeX:
% A Document Preparation System\/} that may need to be underlined in a
% manuscript submitted for publication. This is ONLY to be used when emphasis
% is delimited by braces. A declaration \normalem (or the \usepackage
% option "normalem") restores the normal \em behavior.
%
% Full instructions appear after \endinput. In summary:
% \uline{important} underlined text
% \uuline{urgent} double-underlined text
% \uwave{boat} wavy underline
% \sout{wrong} line drawn through word
% \xout{removed} marked over with //////.
% {\em phasized\/} | In LaTeX, by default, these are underlined; use
% \emph{asized} | \normalem or [normalem] to restore italics
% \useunder{\uwave}{\bfseries}{\textbf}
% use wavy underline in place of bold face

ULEM is a package for LaTeX or plain TeX which provides various types of
underlining that can stretch between words and be broken across lines.
In LaTeX this style replaces italics with underlining in emphasized text
given by \em or \emph -- but only if the text is delimited by braces. A
declaration \normalem (or the \usepackage option [normalem]) restores the
normal \em behavior. For underlining in plain TeX, \input ulem.sty, and
use the \uline command.
Unlike regular underlining, ulem allows line breaks, and even primitive
hyphenation, within the underlined text; but it is far from perfect. It is
most suitable for simple text like {\em \LaTeX: A document preparation
system\/} that may need to be underlined in a manuscript submitted for
publication. Again, ulem will only replace \em and \emph when the text is
delimited by explicit braces.
The thickness of the underline rule is given by \ULthickness; use
\renewcommand or \def (not \setlength) to change it. The depth of the
underline is controlled by the length \ULdepth. The default value is a
special flag which lets the current font control the depth. You can set
a particular value to \ULdepth (using \setlength) to force a particular
depth, either locally for a special purpose, or for the document as a
whole. See the definition of \sout.
Every word is typeset in an underlined box, so automatic hyphenation is
normally disabled, but explicit discretionary hyphens (\-) will still be
obeyed. Several text-formatting commands are specially supported within
the underlining: \-, \ , ~, \\, \newline, \linebreak, \nolinebreak,
\penalty, \hskip, \hspace, \hfil, \hfill, \hss. Displayed math and \par
are deliberately not supported to aid in the detection of runaway arguments
(missing braces). The special commands do have a problem: they end a
group so any local assignments are lost.
The underlines continue between words, and stretch just like ordinary
spaces do. Since spaces delimit words, there may be some difficulty
with syntactical spaces (e.g. "2.3 pt"). Some effort is made to handle
such cases, but sometimes (such as \let\x= y) the space is interpreted
incorrectly. You can usually solve the problem by enclosing the offending
command in braces or in a macro (\newcommand\xeqy{\let\x= y}), but...
One important incompatibility with braces and macro replacement:
ALL THE TEXT IN BRACES OR COMING FROM A MACRO IS TYPESET IN A BOX.
That is, braces will suppress stretching and linebreaks in the text they
enclose. Moreover, the specially-taken-care-of commands \-, \\, \newline
and \linebreak are usually ignored if they appear inside extra braces.
They operate only when the braces delimit a command parameter without
introducing a level of grouping. (Even though braces delimiting command
parameters do not normally imply grouping, many commands will add their
own grouping.) Thus, you should try to limit inner braces to short bits of
text or for delimiting parameters to commands. For emergency repairs, see
the "Marat/Sade" example below. Syntactical spaces inside braces never
cause a problem, nor do spaces in math mode.
Text produced by expansion of a command (macro) is boxed too, but \\, \
and \- still work properly in the expansion text:
\newcommand\iff{if and only if} {\em \iff}
does not allow any stretching or linebreaking between words, but
\newcommand\iff{if\ and\ only\ if} {\em \iff}
allows stretching and linebreaking. There is a problem though: the
\ between words closes a group and any local assignments will be lost,
in particular, font changes and color changes.
This loss of local assignments will break some other standard commands,
(e.g., \cite) which produce multiple `words' using local assignments.
The way to protect such commands is to bury them in an \mbox:
{\em every\-one agrees~\mbox{\cite{you,me}}.}
Nested \em commands produce multiple underlining, but heed the warnings
about braces above. To get italics without underlining, use \it. Nesting
of other types of underline is also possible, but the `underlines' may
overlap.
HERE IS A SIMPLE EXAMPLE.
\noindent 'Twas {\em brillig\/} and the {\em slithy~toves\/}
did {\em gyre\/} and {\em gim\-ble\/} in the {\em wabe,\\[2pt] }
All {\em mim\-sey\/} were the {\em boro\-goves\/} and
the {\em mome raths outgrabe}.
HERE IS A DIFFICULT EXAMPLE.
\usepackage{ulem}
\setlength\textwidth{3.3in}
\begin{document}
% \large
No, I did {\em not} act in the movie {\em \emph{The} % <<<<<<< Nested
\emph{Persecu}\-\emph{tion} \emph{and} \emph{Assassination} \emph{of}
\emph{Jean-Paul} \emph{Marat}, as per\-formed by the Inmates
of the Asylum of Charenton under the Direc\-tion of the
Marquis de~Sade!} But I {\em did} see it.
\end{document}
In the nested emphasis, \emph had to be given for each word separately
so the spaces between could stretch and break into lines. Even the
discretionary hyphen (\-) in `Persecution' had to be outside the braces,
but the hyphen in Direction was just fine because it was not in nested
braces. The same applies to other special commands like \ and ~. Also,
the spaces are printed with only a single underline because they are
outside the nested \emph commands. This example really illustrates that
ulem does not handle nested emphasis very well! Nevertheless, it is fine
for simple things.
Underlining can also be done according to \uline{this text}. To use this
type of underlining, but have \em still produce italics, put the command
\normalem in the preamble of the document or load ulem with
\usepackage[normalem]{ulem}.
Some variations on underlining are provided, including a wavey underline
(\uwave{under-wave}), double underlines (\uuline{two lines under this}),
a line through text rather than under it (\sout{strike out}), text
crossed-out with /////// (\xout{cross out, X out}). You can define your
own styles following the examples provided. The definition should be
something like:
\newcommand\command{\bgroup \markoverwith{something}\ULon}
The "something" can be as simple as a single character, or as complex as
you can keep track of.
The various underlining commands are essentially textual, and will not
work quite the same in math mode. But since some font commands, like \bf,
serve both for text and math, math mode is handled (in an approximate way).
The performance in math mode is somewhat different from in text: there will
be no line breaks or stretching in the underlined text, and the vertical
positioning may not be right. The results should be best for \uline,
\uwave, \uuline, and any other truly UNDER-line you define.
Any type of underlining can be substituted for any font-selection command
by issuing a proper \useunder declaration:
\useunder{\underlinecommand}{\fontdeclaration}{\fontcommand}
e.g., \useunder{\uuline}{\bfseries}{\textbf} gives a double underline
instead of bold face in LaTeX. The commands \normalem and \ULforem switch
underlining for \em off and on, respectively, and so do the \usepackage
options [normalem] and [ULforem]. There is also the \usepackage style
option [UWforbf] to replace boldface with a wavey underline.
UWforbf does handle \bf in math mode, but it doesn't work in section titles,
unfortunately, because the titles are not delimited by explicit braces when
printed by the \section command. For the present version, the \bfseries
command still produces bold face, but \bf makes an under-wave. To get under-
waved section titles you can do
\renewcommand\@seccntformat[1]{\uwave{\csname the#1\endcsname}\hskip 1em}
and later specify \section[...]{\uwave{...}}.
In plain TeX there is no \textbf so you should use \useunder{\UWave}{\bf}{}.
You can even skip a step and define the underline or overprint with \useunder:
\useunder{\bgroup\markoverwith{!}\ULon}{\sf}{}
All the underlining commands are robust in LaTeX.
