<p>I have created a review paper with over 190 references using the IEEE (Alphabetical) Style sheet. In Word 2007 and 2010, there are no issues with using a .docx file. However, if I try to create a pdf of the file, the pdf converter often crashes. As well, I cannot convert the file into an .doc file as it will crash the programme. There seems to be some issues with this particular style sheet, since if I change the style sheet say to APA everything is okay and there are no problems with creating a pdf or converting to .doc file. As well, if I try to convert all the references to static text, I get blank results or general failures in the conversion.</p>

<p>Thank you.</p>

There is a bug on IEEE style (the one sorted by numbers at least), regarding URLs. When they are long enough that they need to be broken in order to pass to the second line, the column of numbers breaks, because the link was not actually broken by word and I think it creates problems on the table formatting. Probably that is what is causing the crashes.
I am devolipng that style for my own use and my university and I solved it with the option to break by "\" character. ;-)
I already sent an email two months ago to Yves, offering to publish this style, but I haven't received an answer yet...
