How do I horizontally compress or unstretch paragraph text?

My references section sometimes shows a lot of whitespace between words that I would like to remove.



For example, in the following screenshot, I would like to remove the extra spaces within the text "Describing a link":



enter image description here



I know that I can use mbox (for example, mboxDescribing a link), but I'd like to apply some option to avoid this globally.



Update: The main answer worked for url, but now I get the same issue when using href:



bibitemReference2 Some Name, hrefmailto:testlongname@example.comtestlongname@example.com

    Well, packages url and xurl are prepared to work with command url but not with href. Because the second parameter of href is set as normal text you can try hrefmailto:testlongname@example.comtestlongname@example. com (I added an blank in the second parameter to allow there a break) ...

In your case you can simply add usepackagexurl in your preamble. Be sure to call xurl before package hyperref (if you omit that, hyperref itself calls package url with the result you got ...)!

In your case you can simply add usepackagexurl in your preamble. Be sure to call xurl before package hyperref (if you omit that, hyperref itself calls package url with the result you got ...)!



With the following code



documentclass[12pt, a4paper, twocolumn]article

usepackagexurl % <===================================================
usepackagehyperref
hypersetupcolorlinks = true, urlcolor = blue, linkcolor = blue, citecolor = blue

usepackage[super,comma,sort&compress]natbib

usepackageabstract
renewcommandabstractnamefontnormalfontbfseries

  • Update: The main answer worked for url, but now I get the same issue when using href. I updated the question and example document to show the new issue.
