When both a citation (or reference of equations) and a math object appear in the same line in a paragraph, the frame of the citation is higher than normal. Any ideas how to fix this but keep the frame? Thank you in advance!

Since $X_noverset{p}{to}X$ as $ntoinfty$, we then have...

The size of links is dependent on the size of other things in the same line (roughly) as the link, and so since your inline math causes the line height to be larger (which it does) then the box will be larger. For a more detailed discussion of the problem, see the following question:

• Constant height and depth of hyperref link boxes

As a workaround, you can put your citation or reference into an mbox but this will have the problem of not allowing the link to break across lines, yielding overfull boxes. Here's an example of this. (This is also an example of how to make a minimal example with a bibliography.)

% !BIB TS-program = bibtex

This is a line that contains a reference cite{Westerstahl1998}.



This is a line that contains $X_noverset{L}{to}X$ as $ntoinfty$ and a reference cite{Westerstahl1998}.



This is a line that contains $X_noverset{L}{to}X$ as $ntoinfty$ and a reference mbox{cite{Westerstahl1998}}.



setlength{emergencystretch}{2.5em} This is a line that contains $X_noverset{L}{to}X$ as $ntoinfty$ and a reference mbox{cite{Westerstahl1998}}.

end{document}

This document produces the following warning because the mbox containing the citation overlaps into the right margin. We can cause the line to wrap by increasing the emergency stretch but this will make the math look quite ugly, as in the fourth line.

Overfull hbox (6.43889pt too wide) in paragraph at lines 27--1
