General ⇒ tex:0: destination with the same identifier

[tripwire45]

The full warning I'm getting is:

Code: Select all

tex:0: destination with the same identifier (name{page.1}) hasbeen already used, duplicate ignored\relaxl.100 \newpage[1]

I've Googled the error but haven't come up with much in terms of what the error means, not to mention the solution. I compared this LaTeX doc with another one I've been working on that doesn't display this warning, but I can't see where I've made my mistake (though obviously, I've made one). Can you tell me what to look for? Thanks.

Hi Trip,

did you see PDFTeX destination ... ignored in the UK TeX FAQ?

Actually, the solution seems like it should be here, but it doesn't work for me:

http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2htm ... pagelabels

What is really mysterious, is that I have another document set up to display roman page numbers prior to the first chapter and arabic page numbers thereafter, and I don't get the warning. I checked the preamble as well and in fact, copied and pasted it over from the first to second document. There *should* be no difference in how this feature is set up, but the first doc doesn't display the warning and the second doc does.

Code: Select all

%Make title page without date and insert kount logo on top of the title
\begin{titlepage}
\vspace*{\fill}
\centering
% Upper part of the page
\includegraphics[width=0.8\textwidth]{img/logo_large.png}\\[1cm]
\textcolor{webred}{\textsc{\Huge \textbf{User Guide}}}\\[1cm]
\end{titlepage}
\pagenumbering{roman}
%Create a copyright page as a separate page
 \vspace*{\fill}
\begingroup

\endgroup
\vspace*{\fill}
\newpage
% Insert the table of contents
\tableofcontents
% Set indent of paragraphs to zero
\setlength{\parindent}{0pt}
\setlength{\parskip}{1ex plus 0.5ex minus 0.2ex}
\newpage
\pagenumbering{arabic}
%Chapter 1

If I remove the \pagenumbering{} tags, the warning goes away, The problem may not be solvable based on the following statement from the above-referenced source:

A common problem arises when there is an unnumbered title page, after which page numbers are reset: the PDFTeX warning of “duplicate destinations” will happen in this case, regardless of the options.

Hi Trip,

one workaround together with pdfpagelabels could be to redefine \thepage temporarily (titlepage) to some different value.
