Page Layout ⇒ tocloft | Hyperlinks for ToC Entries with Offset

[Cham]

I'm experiencing a glitch with the tocloft package. See the MWE below.

When the package is switched off, the clickable links are working perfectly in the ToC entries. When the package is turned on, clicking on entries like "Content" or "List of Figures" in the ToC brings you to the right page but with an annoying offset (the title isn't visible). Why is that?

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt,letterpaper,twoside]{book}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[]{tocbibind}
\usepackage{tocloft}
\usepackage[]{hyperref}

\begin{document}

\tableofcontents

\chapter{A first chapter}
\section{A section}
Bla bla bla bla bla bla.
\newpage
Bla bla bla bla bla.

\chapter{A second chapter}
\section{First section in the second chapter}
Bla bla bla bla.  Bla bla bla bla bla.
\newpage
Bla bla bla bla

\listoffigures

\newpage
blabla

\end{document}

I much prefer the normal behavior (when the package is off), but I still need that package to customize the presentation of the ToC and the LoF.

Any idea how to solve this issue?

Did not see the problem you mention. Which viewer are you using to view the pdf file?

Regards.

To see the problem, you need to switch off and on the tocloft package. Both output behaves differently when you click on the "Contents" or the "List of Figures" links.

[Cham]

So, is there a solution to this issue? Any idea?

[Cham]

I guess that there is no clear solution to the issue I exposed above(?).

This is weird.

Try etoc or titletoc instead to customize your ToC.

Thanks for the reply.

However, do you confirm the issue that I described in my first post above ?

Yes. If you don't want to use one of the suggested alternatives, write a note to the tocloft maintainer.

Ok, thanks a lot for your feedback.

I'll see what I can do with the other packages too.
