Math in TOC

Post by UJS »

Hi everyone,

I'm using the memoir class with the hyperref package (among others) and compiling with PDFLaTeX. I'm getting the following warnings when I have math (in this case the Greek epsilon symbol) in a section title that needs to go in the Table of Contents:

Code: Select all

Package hyperref Warning: Token not allowed in a PDF string (Unicode):
(hyperref) removing `math shift' on input line 13.
Package hyperref Warning: Token not allowed in a PDF string (Unicode):
(hyperref) removing `\epsilon' on input line 13.

It does seem to display in the ToC correctly, and the hyperlink works as well.. does anyone know what this is about?

Thanks in advance,

Here's a working example:

Code: Select all

Code, edit and compile here:
\documentclass{memoir}
\usepackage[unicode]{hyperref}
\begin{document}
\frontmatter
\tableofcontents
\mainmatter
\chapter{Introduction $\epsilon$}
text
\end{document}

Omitting the unicode option changes the warning, but doesn't get rid of it (this was a default setting, not sure if I need it).

Search the hyperref manual for the \texorpdfstring command to replace math expressions in headings.

Excellent, it works now! I did look at the manual before, but I just didn't know what to search for..

Thank you!
