Introduction

The package derives from, and builds on, the work of the HyperTEX project, described at http:
//xxx.lanl.gov/hypertex/. It extends the functionality of all the LATEX cross-referencing commands (including the table of contents, bibliographies etc) to produce \special commands which
a driver can turn into hypertext links; it also provides new commands to allow the user to write
ad hoc hypertext links, including those to external documents and URLs.
This manual provides a brief overview of the hyperref package. For more details, you should read
the additional documentation distributed with the package, as well as the complete documentation

INTRODUCTION

by processing hyperref.dtx. You should also read the chapter on hyperref in The LATEX Web
Companion, where you will find additional examples.
The HyperTEX specification1 says that conformant viewers/translators must recognize the
following set of \special constructs:
href: html:
name: html:
end: html:
image: html:
base_name: html:
The href, name and end commands are used to do the basic hypertext operations of establishing
links between sections of documents. The image command is intended (as with current HTML
viewers) to place an image of arbitrary graphical format on the page in the current location. The
base_name command is be used to communicate to the DVI viewer the full (URL) location of the
current document so that files specified by relative URL’s may be retrieved correctly.
The href and name commands must be paired with an end command later in the TEX file—the
TEX commands between the two ends of a pair form an anchor in the document. In the case of
an href command, the anchor is to be highlighted in the DVI viewer, and when clicked on will
cause the scene to shift to the destination specified by href_string. The anchor associated with a
name command represents a possible location to which other hypertext links may refer, either as
local references (of the form href="#name_string" with the name_string identical to the one in
the name command) or as part of a URL (of the form URL#name_string). Here href_string is
a valid URL or local identifier, while name_string could be any string at all: the only caveat is
that ‘"’ characters should be escaped with a backslash (\), and if it looks like a URL name it may
cause problems.
However, the drivers intended to produce only PDF use literal PostScript or PDF \special
commands. The commands are defined in configuration files for different drivers, selected by
package options; at present, the following drivers are supported:
hypertex DVI processors conforming to the HyperTEX guidelines (i.e. xdvi, dvips (with the -z
option), OzTeX, and Textures)
dvips produces \special commands tailored for dvips
dvipsone produces \special commands tailored for dvipsone
ps2pdf a special case of output suitable for processing by earlier versions of Ghostscript’s PDF
writer; this is basically the same as that for dvips, but a few variations remained before
version 5.21
tex4ht produces \special commands for use with TEX4ht
pdftex pdfTEX, Hàn Thế Thành’s TEX variant that writes PDF directly
dvipdf produces \special commands for the DVI to PDF driver dvipdf
dvipdfm produces \special commands for Mark Wicks’ DVI to PDF driver dvipdfm
dviwindo produces \special commands that Y&Y’s Windows previewer interprets as hypertext
jumps within the previewer
1 This

is borrowed from an article by Arthur Smith.

IMPLICIT BEHAVIOR

vtex produces \special commands that MicroPress’ HTML and PDF-producing TEX variants
interpret as hypertext jumps within the previewer
textures produces \special commands that Textures interprets as hypertext jumps within the
previewer
Output from dvips or dvipsone must be processed using Acrobat Distiller to obtain a PDF
file.2 The result is generally preferable to that produced by using the hypertex driver, and then
processing with dvips -z, but the DVI file is not portable. The main advantage of using the
HyperTEX \special commands is that you can also use the document in hypertext DVI viewers,
such as xdvi.

2

Implicit behavior

This package can be used with more or less any normal LATEX document by specifying in the
document preamble
\usepackage{hyperref}
Make sure it comes last of your loaded packages, to give it a fighting chance of not being
over-written, since its job is to redefine many LATEX commands. Hopefully you will find that all
cross-references work correctly as hypertext. For example, \section commands will produce a
bookmark and a link, whereas \section* commands will only show links when paired with a
corresponding \addcontentsline command.
In addition, the hyperindex option (see below) attempts to make items in the index by hyperlinked back to the text, and the option backref inserts extra ‘back’ links into the bibliography
for each entry. Other options control the appearance of links, and give extra control over PDF
output. For example, colorlinks, as its name well implies, colors the links instead of using boxes;
this is the option used in this document.

3

Package options

All user-configurable aspects of hyperref are set using a single ‘key=value’ scheme (using the
keyval package) with the key Hyp. The options can be set either in the optional argument to
the \usepackage command, or using the \hypersetup macro. When the package is loaded, a file
hyperref.cfg is read if it can be found, and this is a convenient place to set options on a site-wide
basis.
As an example, the behavior of a particular file could be controlled by:
• a site-wide hyperref.cfg setting up the look of links, adding backreferencing, and setting
a PDF display default:
\hypersetup{backref,
pdfpagemode=FullScreen,
colorlinks=true}
• A global option in the file, which is passed down to hyperref:
\documentclass[dvips]{article}
2 Make sure you turn off the partial font downloading supported by dvips and dvipsone in favor of Distiller’s own
system.

3

PACKAGE OPTIONS

4

• File-specific options in the \usepackage commands, which override the ones set in
hyperref.cfg:
\usepackage[pdftitle={A Perfect Day},colorlinks=false]{hyperref}
Some options can be given at any time, but many are restricted: before \begin{document},
only in \usepackage[...]{hyperref}, before first use, etc.
In the key descriptions that follow, many options do not need a value, as they default to the
value true if used. These are the ones classed as ‘boolean’. The values true and false can always
be specified, however.

boolean

true

In the hypertex driver, the height of links
is normally calculcated by the driver as simply the base line of contained text; this options forces \special commands to reflect the
real height of the link (which could contain a
graphic)
Allows link text to break across lines; since
this cannot be accommodated in PDF, it is
only set true by default if the pdftex driver is
used. This makes links on multiple lines into
different PDF links to the same target.
Determines whether every page is given an implicit anchor at the top left corner. If this is
turned off, \tableofcontents will not contain hyperlinks.
Forces page anchors to be named by the arabic form of the page number, rather than the
formatted form.

If you use dviwindo, you may need to redefine the macro \wwwbrowser (the default is
C:\netscape\netscape) to tell dviwindo what program to launch. Thus, users of Internet
Explorer might add something like this to hyperref.cfg:
\renewcommand{wwwbrowser}{C:\string\Program\space
Files\string\Plus!\string\Microsoft\space
Internet\string\iexplore.exe}

the table of contents, requiring two passes of LATEX. Some
postprocessing of the bookmark
file (file extension .out) may
be needed to translate LATEX
codes, since bookmarks must be
written in PDFEncoding. To
aid this process, the .out file
is not rewritten by LATEX if
it is edited to contain a line

thickness, but the colorlinks option resets it to produce no border.

Note that the color of link borders can be specified only as 3 numbers in the range 0..1, giving
an RGB color. You cannot use colors defined in TEX.
The bookmark commands are stored in a file called jobname.out. The files is not processed by LATEX so any markup is passed through. You can postprocess this file as needed; as
an aid for this, the .out file is not overwritten on the next TEX run if it is edited to contain the line

Each link in Acrobat carries its own magnification level, which is set using PDF coordinate
space, which is not the same as TEX’s. pdfTEX works by supplying default values for XYZ (horizontal × vertical × zoom) and FitBH. However, drivers using pdfmark do not supply defaults, so
hyperref passes in a value of -32768, which causes Acrobat to set (usually) sensible defaults. The
following are possible values for the pdfview and pdfstartview parameters.
XYZ

Additional user macros

If you need to make references to URLs, or write explicit links, the following low-level user macros
are provided:
\href{URL}{text}

The text is made a hyperlink to the URL; this must be a full URL (relative to the base URL, if
that is defined). The special characters # and ˜ do not need to be escaped in any way.
\url{URL}

Equivalent to \href{URL}{URL}.
\nolinkurl{URL}

Write URL as plain text, without creating a hyperlink.
\hyperbaseurl{URL}

A base URL is established, which is prepended to other specified URLs, to make it easier to write
portable documents.
\hyperimage{imageURL}

The image referenced by the URL is inserted.
\hyperdef{category}{name}{text}

A target area of the document (the text) is marked, and given the name category.name
\hyperref{URL}{category}{name}{text}

text is made into a link to URL#category.name

4

ADDITIONAL USER MACROS

12

\hyperlink{name}{text}

\hypertarget{name}{text}

A simple internal link is created with \hypertarget, with two parameters of an anchor name, and
anchor text. \hyperlink has two arguments, the name of a hypertext object defined somewhere
by \hypertarget, and the text which be used as the link on the page.
Note that in HTML parlance, the \hyperlink command inserts a notional # in front of each
link, making it relative to the current testdocument; \href expects a full URL.
\autoref{label }

This is a replacement for the usual \ref command that places a contextual label in front of
the reference. This gives your users a bigger target to click for hyperlinks (e.g. ‘section 2’ instead
of merely the number ‘2’).
The label is worked out from the context of the original \label command by hyperref by
using the macros listed below (shown with their default values). The macros can be redefined
in documents using \renewcommand; note that some of these macros are already defined in the
standard document classes. The mixture of lowercase and uppercase initial letters is deliberate
and corresponds to the author’s practice.
For each macro below, hyperref checks \*autorefname before \*name. For instance, it looks
for \figureautorefname before \figurename.

For instances where you want a reference to use the correct counter, but not to create a link,
there are two starred forms:
\ref*{label }

\pageref*{label }

A typical use would be to write
\hyperref[other]{that nice section (\ref*{other}) we read before}

4

ADDITIONAL USER MACROS

13

We want \ref*{other} to generate the correct number, but not to form a link, since we do
this ourselves with \hyperref.
\pdfstringdef{macroname}{TEXstring}

\pdfstringdef returns a macro containing the PDF string. (Currently this is done globally,
but do not rely on it.) All the following tasks, definitions and redefinitions are made in a group
to keep them local:
• Switching to PD1 or PU encoding
• Defining the “octal sequence commands” (\345): \edef\3{\string\3}
• Special glyphs of TEX: \{, \%, \&, \space, \dots, etc.
• National glyphs (german.sty, french.sty, etc.)
• Logos: \TeX, \eTeX, \MF, etc.
• Disabling commands that do not provide useful functionality in bookmarks: \label, \index,
\glossary, \discretionary, \def, \let, etc.
• LATEX’s font commands like \textbf, etc.
• Support for \xspace provided by the xspace package
In addition, parentheses are protected to avoid the danger of unsafe unbalanced parentheses
in the PDF string. For further details, see Heiko Oberdiek’s EuroTEX paper distributed with
hyperref.

4.1

Replacement macros

hyperref takes the text for bookmarks from the arguments of commands like \section, which can
contain things like math, colors, or font changes, none of which will display in bookmarks as is.
\texorpdfstring{TEXstring}{PDFstring}

For example,
\section{Pythagoras:
\texorpdfstring{$ a^2 + b^2 = c^2 $}{%
a\texttwosuperior\ + b\texttwosuperior\ =
c\texttwosuperior}}
\section{\texorpdfstring{\textcolor{red}}{}{Red} Mars}
\pdfstringdef executes the hook before it expands the string. Therefore, you can use this
hook to perform additional tasks or to disable additional commands.
\expandafter\def\expandafter\pdfstringdefPreHook
\expandafter{%
\pdfstringdefPreHook
\renewcommand{\mycommand}[1]{}%
}
However, for disabling commands, an easier way is via \pdfstringdefDisableCommands, which
adds its argument to the definition of \pdfstringdefPreHook (‘@’ can here be used as letter in
command names):

Acrobat-specific behavior

If you want to access the menu options of Acrobat Reader or Exchange, the following macro is
provided in the appropriate drivers:
\Acrobatmenu{menuoption}{text}

The text is used to create a button which activates the appropriate menuoption. The following
table lists the option names you can use—comparison of this with the menus in Acrobat Reader
or Exchange will show what they do. Obviously some are only appropriate to Exchange.

About

PDF and HTML forms

You must put your fields inside a Form environment (only one per file).
There are six macros to prepare fields:
\TextField[parameters]{label }

\CheckBox[parameters]{label }

\ChoiceMenu[parameters]{label }{choices}

\PushButton[parameters]{label }

\Submit[parameters]{label }

\Reset[parameters]{label }

The way forms and their labels are laid out is determined by:
\LayoutTextField{label }{field }

\LayoutChoiceField{label }{field }

\LayoutCheckboxField{label }{field }

These macros default to #1 #2
What is actually shown in as the field is determined by:

PDF AND HTML FORMS

16

\MakeRadioField{width}{height}

\MakeCheckField{width}{height}

\MakeTextField{width}{height}

\MakeChoiceField{width}{height}

\MakeButtonField{text}

These macros default to \vbox to #2{\hbox to #1{\hfill}\vfill}, except the last, which
defaults to #1; it is used for buttons, and the special \Submit and \Reset macros.
You may also want to redefine the following macros:
\def\DefaultHeightofSubmit{12pt}
\def\DefaultWidthofSubmit{2cm}
\def\DefaultHeightofReset{12pt}
\def\DefaultWidthofReset{2cm}
\def\DefaultHeightofCheckBox{0.8\baselineskip}

Special support for other packages

hyperref aims to cooperate with other packages, but there are several possible sources for conflict,
such as
• Packages that manipulate the bibliographic mechanism. Peter William’s harvard package is
supported. However, the recommended package is Patrick Daly’s natbib package that has
specific hyperref hooks to allow reliable interaction. This package covers a very wide variety
of layouts and citation styles, all of which work with hyperref.
• Packages that typeset the contents of the \label and \ref macros, such as showkeys. Since
the hyperref package redefines these commands, you must set implicit=false for these
packages to work.
• Packages that do anything serious with the index.
The hyperref package is distributed with variants on two useful packages designed to work
especially well with it. These are xr and minitoc, which support crossdocument links using LATEX’s
normal \label/\ref mechanisms and per-chapter tables of contents, respectively.

History and acknowledgments

The original authors of hyperbasics.tex and hypertex.sty, from which this package descends, are Tanmoy
Bhattacharya
(tanmoy@qcd.lanl.gov)
and
Thorsten
Ohl
(thorsten.ohl@physik.th-darmstadt.de). hyperref started as a simple port of their work to
LATEX 2ε standards, but eventually I rewrote nearly everything, because I didn’t understand a lot
of the original, and was only interested in getting it to work with LATEX. I would like to thank
Arthur Smith, Tanmoy Bhattacharya, Mark Doyle, Paul Ginsparg, David Carlisle, T. V. Raman
and Leslie Lamport for comments, requests, thoughts and code to get the package into its first
useable state. Various other people are mentioned at the point in the source where I had to
change the code in later versions because of problems they found.
Tanmoy found a great many of the bugs, and (even better) often provided fixes, which has made
the package more robust. The days spent on RevTEX are entirely due to him! The investigations
of Bill Moss (bmoss@math.clemson.edu) into the later versions including native PDF support
uncovered a good many bugs, and his testing is appreciated. Hans Hagen (pragma@pi.net)
provided a lot of insight into PDF.
Berthold Horn provided help, encouragement and sponsorship for the dvipsone and dviwindo
drivers. Sergey Lesenko provided the changes needed for dvipdf, and Hàn Thế Thành supplied all
the information needed for pdftex. Patrick Daly kindly updated his natbib package to allow easy
integration with hyperref. Michael Mehlich’s hyper package (developed in parallel with hyperref)
showed me solutions for some problems. Hopefully the two packages will combine one day.
The forms creation section owes a great deal to: T. V. Raman, for encouragement, support and
ideas; Thomas Merz, whose book Web Publishing with Acrobat/PDF provided crucial insights; D.

GNU Free Documentation License

Version 1.2, November 2002
Copyright c 2000,2001,2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

Preamble
The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other functional and useful document
“free” in the sense of freedom: to assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,
with or without modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially. Secondarily, this License
preserves for the author and publisher a way to get credit for their work, while not being considered
responsible for modifications made by others.
This License is a kind of “copyleft”, which means that derivative works of the document must
themselves be free in the same sense. It complements the GNU General Public License, which is
a copyleft license designed for free software.
We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free software, because free
software needs free documentation: a free program should come with manuals providing the same
freedoms that the software does. But this License is not limited to software manuals; it can be
used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or whether it is published as a printed
book. We recommend this License principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.

10.1

Applicability and definitions

This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, that contains a notice placed
by the copyright holder saying it can be distributed under the terms of this License. Such a
notice grants a world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, to use that work under
the conditions stated herein. The “Document”, below, refers to any such manual or work. Any
member of the public is a licensee, and is addressed as “you”. You accept the license if you copy,
modify or distribute the work in a way requiring permission under copyright law.
A “Modified Version” of the Document means any work containing the Document or a portion
of it, either copied verbatim, or with modifications and/or translated into another language.
A “Secondary Section” is a named appendix or a front-matter section of the Document that
deals exclusively with the relationship of the publishers or authors of the Document to the Document’s overall subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall directly within
that overall subject. (Thus, if the Document is in part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary
Section may not explain any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of historical connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal, commercial, philosophical, ethical or
political position regarding them.
The “Invariant Sections” are certain Secondary Sections whose titles are designated, as being
those of Invariant Sections, in the notice that says that the Document is released under this
License. If a section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it is not allowed to be
designated as Invariant. The Document may contain zero Invariant Sections. If the Document
does not identify any Invariant Sections then there are none.
The “Cover Texts” are certain short passages of text that are listed, as Front-Cover Texts or
Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that the Document is released under this License. A
Front-Cover Text may be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may be at most 25 words.
A “Transparent” copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy, represented in a format
whose specification is available to the general public, that is suitable for revising the document

10 GNU FREE DOCUMENTATION LICENSE

21

straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text
formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input to text formatters.
A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file format whose markup, or absence of markup, has
been arranged to thwart or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent. An
image format is not Transparent if used for any substantial amount of text. A copy that is not
“Transparent” is called “Opaque”.
Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain ASCII without markup,
Texinfo input format, LATEX input format, SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and
standard-conforming simple HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human modification. Examples of transparent image formats include PNG, XCF and JPG. Opaque formats include proprietary formats that can be read and edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML or XML
for which the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally available, and the machine-generated
HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word processors for output purposes only.
The “Title Page” means, for a printed book, the title page itself, plus such following pages as
are needed to hold, legibly, the material this License requires to appear in the title page. For
works in formats which do not have any title page as such, “Title Page” means the text near the
most prominent appearance of the work’s title, preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
A section “Entitled XYZ” means a named subunit of the Document whose title either is precisely
XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses following text that translates XYZ in another language.
(Here XYZ stands for a specific section name mentioned below, such as “Acknowledgements”,
“Dedications”, “Endorsements”, or “History”.) To “Preserve the Title” of such a section when you
modify the Document means that it remains a section “Entitled XYZ” according to this definition.
The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice which states that this
License applies to the Document. These Warranty Disclaimers are considered to be included by
reference in this License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other implication that
these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and has no effect on the meaning of this License.

10.2

Verbatim copying

You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License
applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the
reading or further copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, you may accept compensation in exchange for copies. If you distribute a large enough number of copies you must also
follow the conditions in section 10.3.
You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and you may publicly
display copies.

10.3

Copying in quantity

If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly have printed covers) of the
Document, numbering more than 100, and the Document’s license notice requires Cover Texts,
you must enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover Texts: FrontCover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on the back cover. Both covers must also
clearly and legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies. The front cover must present the
full title with all words of the title equally prominent and visible. You may add other material on
the covers in addition. Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve the
title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in other
respects.

10 GNU FREE DOCUMENTATION LICENSE

22

If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit legibly, you should put the first
ones listed (as many as fit reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent
pages.
If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering more than 100, you must
either include a machine-readable Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or
with each Opaque copy a computer-network location from which the general network-using public
has access to download using public-standard network protocols a complete Transparent copy of
the Document, free of added material. If you use the latter option, you must take reasonably
prudent steps, when you begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that this
Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated location until at least one year after
the last time you distribute an Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that
edition to the public.
It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the Document well before
redistributing any large number of copies, to give them a chance to provide you with an updated
version of the Document.

10.4

Modifications

You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under the conditions of sections 10.2 and 10.3 above, provided that you release the Modified Version under precisely this
License, with the Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution
and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy of it. In addition, you must
do these things in the Modified Version:
A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct from that of the Document,
and from those of previous versions (which should, if there were any, be listed in the History
section of the Document). You may use the same title as a previous version if the original
publisher of that version gives permission.
B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities responsible for authorship
of the modifications in the Modified Version, together with at least five of the principal
authors of the Document (all of its principal authors, if it has fewer than five), unless they
release you from this requirement.
C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the Modified Version, as the publisher.
D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications adjacent to the other copyright
notices.
F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice giving the public permission
to use the Modified Version under the terms of this License, in the form shown in the
Addendum below.
G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections and required Cover Texts
given in the Document’s license notice.
H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.
I. Preserve the section Entitled “History”, Preserve its Title, and add to it an item stating at
least the title, year, new authors, and publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title
Page. If there is no section Entitled “History” in the Document, create one stating the title,
year, authors, and publisher of the Document as given on its Title Page, then add an item
describing the Modified Version as stated in the previous sentence.

10 GNU FREE DOCUMENTATION LICENSE

23

J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise the network locations given in the Document
for previous versions it was based on. These may be placed in the “History” section. You
may omit a network location for a work that was published at least four years before the
Document itself, or if the original publisher of the version it refers to gives permission.
K. For any section Entitled “Acknowledgements” or “Dedications”, Preserve the Title of the
section, and preserve in the section all the substance and tone of each of the contributor
acknowledgements and/or dedications given therein.
L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document, unaltered in their text and in their
titles. Section numbers or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.
M. Delete any section Entitled “Endorsements”. Such a section may not be included in the
Modified Version.
N. Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled “Endorsements” or to conflict in title with
any Invariant Section.
O. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.
If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material copied from the Document, you may at your option
designate some or all of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their titles to the list of
Invariant Sections in the Modified Version’s license notice. These titles must be distinct from any
other section titles.
You may add a section Entitled “Endorsements”, provided it contains nothing but endorsements
of your Modified Version by various parties–for example, statements of peer review or that the
text has been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a standard.
You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a passage of up to
25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version.
Only one passage of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or through
arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document already includes a cover text for the
same cover, previously added by you or by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting
on behalf of, you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit permission
from the previous publisher that added the old one.
The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License give permission to use
their names for publicity for or to assert or imply endorsement of any Modified Version.

10.5

Combining documents

You may combine the Document with other documents released under this License, under the terms
defined in section 10.4 above for modified versions, provided that you include in the combination
all of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and list them all as
Invariant Sections of your combined work in its license notice, and that you preserve all their
Warranty Disclaimers.
The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and multiple identical Invariant
Sections may be replaced with a single copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same
name but different contents, make the title of each such section unique by adding at the end of
it, in parentheses, the name of the original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a
unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of Invariant Sections
in the license notice of the combined work.

10 GNU FREE DOCUMENTATION LICENSE

24

In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled “History” in the various original
documents, forming one section Entitled “History”; likewise combine any sections Entitled “Acknowledgements”, and any sections Entitled “Dedications”. You must delete all sections Entitled
“Endorsements”.

10.6

Collections of documents

You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents released under this
License, and replace the individual copies of this License in the various documents with a single
copy that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for
verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other respects.
You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute it individually under
this License, provided you insert a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow
this License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document.

10.7

Aggregation with independent works

A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate and independent documents
or works, in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an “aggregate” if the
copyright resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the legal rights of the compilation’s
users beyond what the individual works permit. When the Document is included in an aggregate,
this License does not apply to the other works in the aggregate which are not themselves derivative
works of the Document.
If the Cover Text requirement of section 10.3 is applicable to these copies of the Document,
then if the Document is less than one half of the entire aggregate, the Document’s Cover Texts may
be placed on covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the electronic equivalent
of covers if the Document is in electronic form. Otherwise they must appear on printed covers
that bracket the whole aggregate.

10.8

Translation

Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 10.4. Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires
special permission from their copyright holders, but you may include translations of some or all
Invariant Sections in addition to the original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include
a translation of this License, and all the license notices in the Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also include the original English version of this License and the original
versions of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a disagreement between the translation and
the original version of this License or a notice or disclaimer, the original version will prevail.
If a section in the Document is Entitled “Acknowledgements”, “Dedications”, or “History”, the
requirement (section 10.4) to Preserve its Title (section 10.1) will typically require changing the
actual title.

10.9

Termination

You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document except as expressly provided
for under this License. Any other attempt to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document
is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who
have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated
so long as such parties remain in full compliance.

10 GNU FREE DOCUMENTATION LICENSE

10.10

25

Future revisions of this license

The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of the GNU Free Documentation
License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but
may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/.
Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number. If the Document specifies
that a particular numbered version of this License “or any later version” applies to it, you have the
option of following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or of any later version
that has been published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If the Document does
not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not as
a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.

Addendum: how to use this license for your documents
To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of the License in the document
and put the following copyright and license notices just after the title page:
Copyright c YEAR YOUR NAME. Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or
modify this document under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with no
Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover Texts. A copy of the
license is included in the section entitled “GNU Free Documentation License”.
If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover Texts, replace the
“with...Texts.” line with this:
with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with the Front-Cover Texts being
LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts being LIST.
If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other combination of the three,
merge those two alternatives to suit the situation.
If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we recommend releasing these
examples in parallel under your choice of free software license, such as the GNU General Public
License, to permit their use in free software.
