I use apacite to create a bibliography according to APA guidelines for my article. Some of the references contain URLs. By default, LaTeX shows these in a different, monospace font than the rest of the article. I dislike this, so wish to use the url package with \urlstyle{same}. This does not work however in combination with apacite.

Here is a little reference document.

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{url}
\urlstyle{same}
\usepackage{apacite}

\begin{document}
\url{http://www.google.com}
\end{document}

Leaving out the apacite package will render the link in the document font. It will currently render in the monospace font however. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to fix this, so I can have APA references and good looking URLs?

apacite uses \AtBeginDocument to switch to the APACtt URL style, but one may also switch to APACsame. See section 8.2 of the apacite manual for details.

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{url}
\usepackage{apacite}
\AtBeginDocument{\urlstyle{APACsame}}

\begin{document}
\url{http://www.google.com}
\end{document}

  • I don't get how it exactly works, but that does the trick indeed. Thanks for the help and warm welcome! – Pino May 22 '13 at 17:57
