Page Layout ⇒ Lof/Lot running off the page

[mfiligree]

In my list of figures and list of tables, all the formatting works except the right justification ~ the lines just run right off the page! Here's an example of the formatting used:
%\contentsline {table}{\numberline {1.1}{\ignorespaces {{{\SetAll {...paragraph markings... {unitTitle}{Generic Book Chapter Titles and Publication Dates}}}}}}{3}{subsection.1.1.4}

Any help is appreciated!

Hello and welcome,

I do not know whether I understand you. Is The problem that you have no linebreaks in the toc or lof?

Hi, Marco ~

No, the problem is that all the text runs off the page on the right side. I am wondering if by inserting line breaks it would still have a nice straight right margin or if there is another way to wrap text when the titles are long.

P.S. We used to live in Augsburg!

Your information is very poor. Using hyperref can cause this behaviour but it can be avoided with an appropriate option.

Code: Select all

\usepackage[breaklinks]{hyperref}

If this doesn't work, build a minimal working example (MWE) that shows exactly the effect you described.


Best regards

Hello Thorsten,

I had the same idea. But I wanted to ask the question first.
A small addition:
The code of Thorsten works only width pdflatex. If you use latex you will need the package hypdvips.

For me it works also with latex and shows no dependence on the compiler. An alternative could be to turn the page numbers in the ToC into links.

Code: Select all

\usepackage[linktocpage]{hyperref}

This affects also other lists (LoF, LoT) of the same kind.

Hello Thorsten,

sure the code works. I want to use the following example:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[a4paper,12pt,ngerman,dvips]{scrbook} 
\usepackage{babel}													
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc} 							
						
\usepackage[breaklinks=true]{hyperref}
%\usepackage{hypdvips}	
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\chapter{A very very long long long chapter with many many text text text text many many text text text text}
\end{document}

Without the package the link does not work well. You can see it via the red frame around the chapter in the toc.

regards
Marco

Please provide more information, including a complete example. Your code is fairly incomprehensible, for example is is unclear what the command \SetAll does.

Obviously phi didn't address you with his request.
