This is fine for human readers, but it confuses +<i>hyperref</i> since there are pages which seem (to +<i>hyperref</i>) to have the same page number. Fortunately, there are +configuration options to make <i>hyperref</i> "do the right +thing". +<p>The two options in question are: +<dl> +<dt><code>plainpages=false</code><dd> Make page anchors using the + formatted form of the page number. With this option, + <i>hyperref</i> writes different anchors for pages 'ii' and '2'. + (If the option is set '<code>true</code>' - the default - + <i>hyperref</i> writes page anchors as the arabic form of the + absolute page number, rather than the formatted form.) +<dt><code>pdfpagelabels</code><dd> Set PDF page labels; i.e., + write the value of <code>\</code><code>thepage</code> to the PDF file so that + <i>Acrobat Reader</i> can display the page number as (say) 'ii (4 + of 40)' rather than simply '4 of 40'. +</dl> +The two should be used whenever page numbering is not just +'1<code>..</code>n'; they may be used independently, but usually are not. +<p>The recipe isn't perfect: it relies on <code>\</code><code>thepage</code> being different +for every page in the document. A common problem arises when there is +an unnumbered title page, after which page numbers are reset: the +PDFTeX warning of "<a href="FAQ-hyperdupdest.html">duplicate destinations</a>" +will happen in this case, regardless of the options. +<dl> +<dt><tt><i>hyperref.sty</i></tt><dd><a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/hyperref.zip">macros/latex/contrib/hyperref</a> (<a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/hyperref.tar.gz">gzipped tar</a>, <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/hyperref/">browse</a>) +</dl> +<p> +<p><p><p><p>This question on the Web: <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=pdfpagelabels">http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=pdfpagelabels</a> +</body> |
