General ⇒ Two tables of contents

[Vitigcastro]

Hi everybody!,

I am a PhD student in Spain. I am currently wirting my dissertation in English, but to fulfill regulations about PhD studies at my university, I need to write the table of contents and conclusions in Spanish.
I have read some dissertations which have two tables of contents: one of them in Spanish and the other one in English. I would like to make it like that, but I can't find how.
I have been googling and the most similar I have found is doing it with package tocloft, but I am not sure how to get it done...

Does anybody have any ideas about how to do it?

Thank you very much for your help.

Best regards

It would help to have a minimal working example with the basic structure of your document, including document class, most relevant packages, etc., to work with.

Hello everybody,

Sorry for not having responded in these few days.

I have a cls file, and then the main document and the chapters of the text inside separated files (which I call with \include)

Here is a MWE of my cls file:

That's not really a minimal working example -- it contains \include commands, a \bibliography, etc., to files we do not have access to, and hence, cannot be compiled by others. I ended up just commenting those lines out to test, so hopefully they don't affect things. Also, without adding the subfigure package, it spits an error at you. Please see the Post on Avoidable Mistakes.

But the good news is that the document class is already loading the tocloft package, and so it should be possible to use it to create a new table of contents. You could use commands roughly like these... I'm assuming that you only need chapters, sections and subsections in the TOC. If you have subsubsections, etc., then maybe you can figure out what you need to do from here.

Code: Select all

% create a new list
\newlistof{othertoc}{othertoc}{Other Table of Contents}
\setcounter{othertocdepth}{3}
\newlistentry{othertocchapter}{othertoc}{0}
\newlistentry[othertocchapter]{othertocsection}{othertoc}{1}
\newlistentry[othertocsection]{othertocsubsection}{othertoc}{2}

\newcommand{\otherchaptername}[1]{%
    \refstepcounter{othertocchapter}%
    \addcontentsline{othertoc}{othertocchapter}{{\protect\numberline{\theothertocchapter}#1}}%
    }
\newcommand{\othersectionname}[1]{%
    \refstepcounter{othertocsection}%
    \addcontentsline{othertoc}{othertocsection}{{\protect\numberline{\theothertocsection}#1}}%
    }
\newcommand{\othersubsectionname}[1]{%
    \refstepcounter{othertocsubsection}%
    \addcontentsline{othertoc}{othertocsubsection}{{\protect\numberline{\theothertocsubsection}#1}}%
    } 
% match chapter entry styles to other toc
\renewcommand{\cftbeforeothertocchapterskip}{\cftbeforechapskip}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocchapterfont}{\cftchapfont}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocchapterpresnum}{\cftchappresnum}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocchapteraftersnum}{\cftchapaftersnum}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocchapteraftersnumb}{\cftchapaftersnumb}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocchapterleader}{\cftchapleader}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocchapterdotsep}{\cftchapdotsep}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocchapterpagefont}{\cftchappagefont}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocchapterafterpnum}{\cftchapafterpnum}
% match section entry styles to other toc
\renewcommand{\cftbeforeothertocsecskip}{\cftbeforesecskip}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocsecfont}{\cftsecfont}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocsecpresnum}{\cftsecpresnum}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocsecaftersnum}{\cftsecaftersnum}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocsecaftersnumb}{\cftsecaftersnumb}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocsecleader}{\cftsecleader}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocsecdotsep}{\cftsecdotsep}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocsecpagefont}{\cftsecpagefont}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocsecafterpnum}{\cftsecafterpnum} 
% match subsec entry styles to other toc
\renewcommand{\cftbeforeothertocsubsecskip}{\cftbeforesubsecskip}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocsubsecfont}{\cftsubsecfont}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocsubsecpresnum}{\cftsubsecpresnum}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocsubsecaftersnum}{\cftsubsecaftersnum}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocsubsecaftersnumb}{\cftsubsecaftersnumb}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocsubsecleader}{\cftsubsecleader}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocsubsecdotsep}{\cftsubsecdotsep}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocsubsecpagefont}{\cftsubsecpagefont}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocsubsecafterpnum}{\cftsubsecafterpnum}  

Now, whenever you add a new chapter or section or subsection, you need to add its "other name" too:

Code: Select all

\chapter{Name of chapter}%
\otherchaptername{Translation of above}

Code: Select all

\section{Name of section}%
\othersectionname{Translation of section name}

And so on for \subsection and \othersubsectionname.

Now, if there's anything else manually added to your table of contents like things having to do with the abstract, dedication, that might get tricky, but since you didn't include that code, I really have no idea how these are handled.

Tweak as need be, and see the tocloft package documentation for guidance.

Sorry because of the example not being a MWE. I did not completely understood what it is. I will check again the link you provided to avoid this error again.

Regarding your response, thank you very much for your help, it worked!. I made very slight changes to adapt it completely to my document. I am copying the code with these changes for anybody else who might need it.

Code: Select all

\newcommand{\listothertocname}{New table of contents}
\newlistof{othertoc}{otc}{\listothertocname}
\setcounter{otcdepth}{4}
\newlistentry{othertocchapter}{otc}{0}
\newlistentry[othertocchapter]{othertocsection}{otc}{1}
\newlistentry[othertocsection]{othertocsubsection}{otc}{2}
\newlistentry[othertocsubsection]{othertocsubsubsection}{otc}{3}

\newcommand{\otherchaptername}[1]{%
    \refstepcounter{othertocchapter}%
    \addcontentsline{otc}{othertocchapter}{{\protect\numberline{\theothertocchapter}#1}}%
}
\newcommand{\othersectionname}[1]{%
    \refstepcounter{othertocsection}%
    \addcontentsline{otc}{othertocsection}{{\protect\numberline{\theothertocsection}#1}}%

\renewcommand{\cftothertocsubsectionpagefont}{\cftsubsecpagefont}
\renewcommand{\cftothertocsubsectionafterpnum}{\cftsubsecafterpnum}  

and, to create the new toc in the document I called

Code: Select all
