General ⇒ How to link to Table of Contents and first page in PDF?

[CeoN]

I am using the hyperref package to create links to access chapters and sections within the PDF document - which works fine - see a minimal working example below - however i additionally would like to have a direct link in the pdf viewer for the user to click which directly leads towards the first page of the document and the table of contents. Is this possible with the hyperref package or how could one achieve this?

I compiled the following example with latex->dvipdfm

Do you mean with the PDF bookmarks that are typically displayed in the Side Panel of your PDF viewer? If so, try this:

This is covered in the hyperref manual.

Thanks alot! Exactly what i was looking for. And in my eyes not that easy to find within the manual.

Hi,

I'm reopening this topic because CeoN asks the same question I'd like to ask:

how do I get the PDF viewer to display the front page and the TOC in the bookmarks panel?

My mwe will display this (adobe reader 9 on Linux):

adobe.png (8.77 KiB) Viewed 12381 times

Edit by localghost: No external links! Attachments go onto the forum server.

You see the top of the bookmarks panel with at the top the tables, figures and abbreviations page followed by some chapters. I am looking for a way to show bookmarks for the title page and the toc as well.
Is this possible?

Well, since you hijacked a solved topic (against the Board Rules), you already have the solution and there is nothing to answer.
