hyperref

Post by Megan »

Hello All

I'm using hyperref in a reference document and it is great for linking to various images but once there the reader has to refind their place in the text from where they originally linked.. Is there any elegant way to have a return link? Also when linking to an image it takes the reader to the caption of the image positioned at the top of the page so the reader has to scroll down to view the image.. Is there any way to position the linked image so it is at the bottom or centre of the page?

Thanks
Megan :)

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Modern PDF viewers offer to browse places last viewed in the document. This feature may not be default and has to be selected from the setting options.

Using the current version of the caption package removes this functional weakness.
