Page number weirdness

Post by akrish »

Hi, I am relatively new to Latex. I use TexnicCentre on Miktex 2.7.

I am writing a short report (20 pages) and it has multiple chapters.
There is one chapter which is just a large table. This has page number 16. But the TOC says page 15.
Page 14 is the end of the last chapter and page 15 is blank.
I had not included any \clearpage commands in between.
It's just that the page with the large table is one page off from that reflected by the TOC.
Anyone ever come across something like this before? Any thoughts on why this could be?
Do you need to see my code? It's very basic and I have no other errors.

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

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

That would be ideal.

I actually solved it. I used the \longtable command because I had a feeling that LaTeX was trying to fit the monster table onto one page. Now that it's over two pages, the page number issue is resolved too.
Go figure!
Thanks for your response though ;)

Maybe you meant "Go table!"? Just kidding... welcome to the board!
