Adding Bookmarks and Hyper Links to LaTeX Content Page

Adding Bookmarks and Hyper Links to LaTeX Content Page

Kile Logo

Handling and creation of large documents which have more than 100 pages are not easy task with Microsoft Word and Libre Office Writer like word processing packages. After the limit of 50 pages, time spend for formatting significantly increasing in GUI word processors. Therefore best option is switch to LaTex.



In LaTex content page can be generated with single line. That is adding
ableofcontents tag. However even it generated a good content page, after making the PDF, the book marks and hyper links from content page to relevant sections are not created. To overcome this issue, hyperref package can be used. Just you have to do is add following content to your document between documentclass tag and egin{document} tag.

usepackage{hyperref}
hypersetup{
 pdfborder = {0 0 0},
 bookmarks=true, % show bookmarks bar?
 unicode=false, % non-Latin characters in Acrobat�??s bookmarks
 pdftoolbar=true, % show Acrobat??s toolbar?
 pdfmenubar=true, % show Acrobat??s menu?

 pdffitwindow=false, % window fit to page when opened
 pdfstartview={FitH}, % fits the width of the page to the window
 pdftitle={Sample LaTex with Link}, % title
 pdfauthor={Kasun Chathuranga}, % author
 pdfsubject={LaTex with Link}, % subject of the document

 pdfcreator={Kile}, % creator of the document
 pdfproducer={}, % producer of the document
 pdfkeywords={}, % list of keywords
 pdfnewwindow=true, % links in new window
 linkcolor=white, % color of internal links

 citecolor=green, % color of links to bibliography
 filecolor=black, % color of file links
 urlcolor=cyan, % color of external links
 colorlinks=false,
 citecolor=black,%
 filecolor=black,%

 linkcolor=black,%
 urlcolor=black
}
