I want to protect my email address from automatic web crawlers.
Is there a way to put an image of an email address instead of typed one in the author field and use it for \maketitle
?
I want the following format, so that the email (and affiliation) is in the footnote:
\documentclass[a4paper,10pt]{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\title{Titulo}
\author{Socrates\thanks{Email picture file here: }}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\end{document}
The following throws an error:
\author{Socrates\thanks{Email: \includegraphics{email.png}}
\maketitle
Thanks to the pointer by egreg, \protect
addresses the issue:
\author{Socrates\thanks{Email: \protect \includegraphics{email.png}}
\maketitle
Thanks in advance.
UPD: Edited to add the screenshot.
UPD2: Added solution I was looking for.
Best Answer
The command
\includegraphics
is fragile, so you have to\protect
it in footnotes.
