BTgX resource limitations should upgrade their BIBTEX installation B Nonstandard Extensions Another related issue is that EEEtran bst provides exten sions beyond the standard BIBTpX entry types and fields These additional features are necessary for IEEE style work and were designed to closely follow the existing as well as probable future releases of the standard BIBTpX styles Nevertheless HOW TO USE THE IEEETRAN BIBTEX STYLE users should be aware that many current BIBTpX styles may not be compatible with BIBTgX databases that employ ad vanced features of IEEEtran bst BIBTEX will generate an error if it encounters a cited entry type that the style file does not support but unsupported fields within an entry will simply be ignored For this reason users are encouraged to keep all nonstandard entry types in a BIBTEX database bib file of their own The nonstandard IEEEtran bst entry types are 1 electronic which is used for internet references 2 patent which is used for patents 3 periodical which is used for journals and magazines and 4 standard which is used for published standards The most important extensions to the supported fields will now be briefly mentioned 1 The URL Field Every entry type supports an optional URL entry field for documents that are available on the internet URLs will appear at the end of the bibliography entry and proceeded by the words Online Availa

14. URLs To avoid this problem be sure that the url sty used is at least version 1 6 If used hyperref sty should be at least version 6 70s 2000 08 31 for the same reason Finally users should be aware that hyperref hyperlinked text including URLs cannot normally be broken across lines or pages under DVI but not PDF output To get around this limitation use the breakurl sty package 13 with hyperref sty under DVI output Even with intelligent URL breaking formatting an entry with a URL can still pose challenges as URLs may contain long segments within which breaks are not possible or at least strongly discouraged In its publications the IEEE deals with this problem by allowing the interword space to stretch more than usual To accomplish this IEEEtran bst automatically engages a super stretch feature for every entry that contains a URL The interword spacing within entries that contain HOW TO USE THE IEEETRAN BIBTEX STYLE URLs is allowed to stretch up to four times normal without causing underfull hbox warnings Reference 7 illustrates this feature Section VII discusses how users can control the amount of allowed stretch in entries with URLs Alternatively the default value of this stretch factor can be adjusted via a BIEX command which must be placed before the bibliography begins newcommand BIBentryALTinterwordstretchfactor 2304 However these adjustment mechanisms are of limited use for reducing the stretch f

18. ble as is shown in 1 The IEEE does not place any punctuation at the end of a URL as this could be mistaken as being part of the URL URLs are notoriously difficult to break properly IEEEtran bst places all URL text within a url command so as to provide plug and play use with packages that provide such a command It strongly suggested that when using entries with URLs the popular TEX package url sty 11 is also loaded to provide some intelligence in URL line breaking Alternatively the hyperref sty package 12 also provides a hyperlinked u rl command which can work in conjunction with url sty Remember that unless a url handling package is loaded BIEX will require that special characters such as _ etc be escaped _ Failure to do so will result in compilation errors Oren Patashnik BIBTpX s author recommends that a URL package such as url sty be loaded so that URLs can be conveniently entered in natural unescaped form The u rl command of hyperref sty version 6 72y 2002 09 12 and later also does not require unescaped URL characters Note that it is not safe to escape URL characters in conjunction with url sty or hyperref sty as the url commands of these packages will retain the backslash as is in the formatted URL Users should be aware that version 1 5 and prior of url sty interacts with BIBTgX version 0 99c and prior in way that can result in the anomalous appearance of symbols within the
