I have a report in LaTeX, and i have used the following commands to create my Appendix, however, my lecturer states that any divider pages should be unnumbered.
\documentclass{report}
\usepackage{appendix}
\begin{document}
\include{chap1}
\include{appendix}
\end{document}
Then in appendix.tex
\appendix
\pagestyle{empty}
\appendixpage
\noappendicestocpagenum
\addappheadtotoc
This creates the Appendices divider page, but still puts a page number on it in the footer. There is no page number in the TOC, as expected.
How can I remove it from the footer?
I looked at the appendix.sty source, and I see the problem: line 74, in the definition of \#chap#pppage, issues a \thispagestyle{plain} command, thus overriding your \pagestyle{empty} for this page. The inelegant but direct way to fix this is to redefine the command without this line - issue the following code after importing the package.
Revised, tested version
\documentclass{report}
\usepackage{appendix}
%==== The action ================
\makeatletter
\def\#chap#pppage{%
\clear#ppage
\if#twocolumn\onecolumn\#tempswatrue\else\#tempswafalse\fi
\null\vfil
\markboth{}{}%
{ \centering \interlinepenalty \#M
\normalfont \Huge \bfseries \appendixpagename\par}%
\if#dotoc#pp\addappheadtotoc\fi
\vfil\newpage
\if#twoside
\if#openright \null \thispagestyle{empty}\newpage\fi
\fi
\if#tempswa \twocolumn\fi
}
\makeatother
%==== Back to the document ========
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\chapter{Blah}
Rhubarb, rhubarb, rhubarb.
\appendix
\pagestyle{empty}
\appendixpage
\noappendicestocpagenum
\addappheadtotoc
\chapter{Boff}
Cabbages, cabbages, cabbages.
\end{document}
The TeX FAQ might come in handy here:
I asked for “empty”, but the page is numbered
If you use \pagestyle{empty} and you
find some pages are numbered anyway,
you are probably encountering one of
the style decisions built into the
standard LaTeX classes: that certain
special pages should always appear
with \pagestyle{plain}, with a page
number at the centre of the page foot.
The special pages in question are
those (in article class) containing a
\maketitle, or (in book and report
classes) \chapter or \part commands.
The simple solution is to reissue the
page style after the command, with
effect for a single page, as, for
example (in article):
\maketitle
\thispagestyle{empty}
So give adding \thispagestyle{empty} after your \appendix a try.
try changing \pagestyle{empty} to \thispagestyle{empty} and put it after \addappheadtotoc.
Try instead:
\pagenumbering{gobble}
\begin{appendices} \newpage
\clearpage
\pagenumbering{arabic}
\addtocounter{page}{100}
\tableofcontents
\newpage

I am trying to make a .tex template for a book of abstracts for the conference. I want the template to be compilable, so the participants are able to see their abstracts separately before submitting. Moreover I want to use the files to compile the book of abstracts with table of contents and titles.
So, I have master file
\documentclass[12pt]{combine}
\usepackage{authblk}
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\begin{papers}
\coltocauthor{Crist\'{o}bal Josevich Junta, Fyodor Simeonovich Kivrin}
\coltoctitle{Title of the first abstract}
\import{first}
\coltocauthor{Roman Oyra-Oyra}
\coltoctitle{Title of the second abstract}
\import{second}
\end{papers}
\end{document}
And two imported files are:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{authblk}
\title{Title of the first abstract}
\author[1]{Crist\'{o}bal Josevich Junta}
\author[2]{Fyodor Simeonovich Kivrin}
\affil[1]{Department of the Meaning of Life}
\affil[2]{Department of Linear Happiness}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
Text of the first abstract.
\end{document}
and
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{authblk}
\title{Title of the second abstract}
\author[1]{Roman Oyra-Oyra}
\affil[1]{Laboratory of the most unexpected sciences}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
Text of the second abstract.
\end{document}
The problem is the second \maketitle does not print authors names and their affiliation.
I have tried using redefined \settitle instead of \maketitle
\makeatletter
\newcommand{\settitle}{\#maketitle}
\makeatother
it did not help.
Also, I tried titling package, which led to no change.
I want \maketitle to print the names and affiliations or to find out the better way to automatically make titles for each abstract.
Hi I would like to create some sort of my own table of content in beamer presentation where there will be all parts with all sections listed.
To this moment I came up with this solution to list all \tableofcontents in one slide
\begin{frame}
\begin{multicols}{2}
\setcounter{tocdepth}{1}
\foreach\x in {1,...,\totvalue{part}}{%
\vskip 0.4cm
\tableofcontents[part=\x]%
}%
\setcounter{tocdepth}{2}
\end{multicols}
\end{frame}
Problem here is that I get section of each part but there is not partname listed.
Is there way how to access name of part by index \x of for-cycle? Something like \insertpart[\x]?
Ok with help of one co-student of mine I came up with solution to my problem.
\makeatletter
\AtBeginPart{
\write\#auxout{%
\noexpand\expandafter\noexpand\gdef\noexpand\csname
part\thepart name\noexpand\endcsname{\beamer#partname}}
}
\makeatother
\begin{document}
\frame{\maketitle}
\section*{Outline}
\begin{frame}{Outline of Presentation}
\begin{multicols}{2}
\setcounter{tocdepth}{1}
\foreach\x in {1,...,\totvalue{part}}{%
\medskip\expandafter\let\expandafter\partname
\csname part\x name\endcsname
\penalty-999
\textit{\partname}
\medskip
{\let\vfill=\relax\tableofcontents[part=\x]}\vfill
\penalty-999
}%
\setcounter{tocdepth}{2}
\end{multicols}
\end{frame}
Unfortunately I cannot write down deep description of how exactly it works but basically it takes names of parts during first run of pdflatex and saves them into .aux file. Then during second run of pdflatex it will correctly print them out. Then negative penalty is added to each block so partname is not splitted out of rest of part-toc.
So two runs of pdflatex are needed to work it correctly but it should work quite nicely. I managed to create table of content with 4 parts.
example
Hopefully it will help someone.
I have a problem with latex. I want to create a heading with a special name and aumomatic numbering of the chapters.
I use the \chapter{Introduction} command to create the chapter named Introduction. In the Content it is listed as "1 Introduction" which is right. In the text I get two headings. The first is "Chapter 1" and under that I get "Introduction". So actually the \chapter generates two headings. What can I do?
This is the default layout when using a \chapter in report or book. You need to update \#makechapterhead in order to achieve the layout you're after:
\documentclass{report}
\usepackage{etoolbox}
\makeatletter
\patchcmd{\#makechapterhead}% <cmd>
{\#chapapp\space\thechapter\par\nobreak\vskip 20\p#}% <search>
{\Huge\thechapter\space}% <replace>
{}{}% <success><failure>
\makeatother
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\chapter{ChapterName}
\end{document}
You could also look at MemoirChapterStyles or fncychap for a whole bunch of different chapter heading styles that you could use without having to redefine \#makechapterhead by hand.
i would like to ask how to use the \hyperref because i've googled loads of loads of answers but i can't find. i've created my own TOC. then i included \hyperref package. Then the contents are automatically hyperlinks which is good. but then it went to the wrong pages. i've googled a lot but i couldn't find answer. The contents that i clicked goes to the wrong page.
\documentclass[10pt,a4paper]{report}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{enumerate}
\usepackage{hyperref}
% %\usepackage[colorlinks]{hyperref}
% %\renewcommand*{\contentsname}{\hyperlink{contents}{Contents}}
% %\renewcommand*{\contentsname}{\hyperref[contents]{\arabic{page}}}
\begin{document}
\input{coverPage}
\maketitle
\tableofcontents
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Table of Contents}
\pagebreak
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{List of Figures}
\listoffigures
\pagebreak
% % (1) ==============================================
\setcounter{chapter}{1}
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{1. Introduction}
\input{introduction}
\pagebreak
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{2. References}
\input{references}
\pagebreak
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{3. Glossary}
\input{glossary}
\pagebreak
\end{document}
The issue here is that \chapter sets itself on a new page, so issuing \addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{<chapter title>} before \chapter may point to an incorrect page.
Also, your \tableofcontents might be more than a single page. So, issuing \addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Table of Contents} after \tableofcontents - a \chapter* - might again point to an incorrect page.
The best solution is to use the following setup:
\cleardoublepage
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{<chapter title>}
% <your \chapter or \chapter*>
This will ensure that \addcontentsline is issued on the same page as \chapter or \chapter*.
I've seen a pdf LaTeX document where the page numbers at the bottom of the page are hyperref links, and clicking them causes you to jump to the contents table. I don't have the tex file and couldn't work out how it's done from the hyperref package. Can anyone help?
You could set an anchor at the toc and redefine \thepage to link to it. Here's an example:
\documentclass{report}
\usepackage[colorlinks]{hyperref}
\renewcommand*{\contentsname}{\hyperlink{contents}{Contents}}
\renewcommand*{\thepage}{\hyperref[contents]{\arabic{page}}}
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\chapter{One}
Text
\end{document}
If you use babel and wish to redefine \contentsname, use the \addto command of babel or redefine \contentsname after \begin{document}.
Have you tried defining the page numbering using this?
\pagestyle{myheadings}
\markright{ ... }
where \markright specifies the page number with a link to the content page.
Here is how I did it
% !TEX encoding = UTF-8 Unicode
% !TEX TS-program = xelatex
\documentclass[UTF8, english]{article}
\usepackage{lipsum} %% produce dummy texts
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage[pagestyles]{titlesec}
\newpagestyle{article}{
\setfoot
%% even pages
[]
[\footnotesize \hyperlink{toc}{\thepage}]
[]
%% odd pages
{}
{\footnotesize \hyperlink{toc}{\thepage}}
{}
}
\begin{document}
\title{example}
\date{}
\author{author}
\maketitle
\pagenumbering{roman}
\setcounter{tocdepth}{2}
\addtocontents{toc}{\protect\hypertarget{toc}{}}

you can of course customize the link text back to table of contents however you like in the preamble, please read documentation of titlesec for more details.
