Problem on position of bookmarks in PDF












3














I am writing a book that has 3 parts and each part has many sections. After compiling the .tex file, some of the bookmarks of the .pdf file are misplaced as shown in below:

and its MWE 



documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{book}

usepackage{hyperref}

    I think this happened because you missed chapter{...}. book document class expects the following hierarchy: part → chapter → section → subsection → ...

    You could change to article which does have parts and sections but no chapters…

    @C.F.G: You could use the bookmark package, that 'sanitizes' the bookmarks and keeps the levels in order, but actually, omitting chapters is an logical error!

    Omitting the chapter will also lead to section numbers like 0.5 showing up, which is awful.

The hierarchy of levels (that's why it is called level) in book class, is with their associated numbers, starting from top to bottom




part (-1) - chapter (0) - section (1) - subsection (2) - subsubsection
(3) - paragraph (4) - subparagraph (5)




Omitting one level is a logical error that confuses hyperref. Either do not omit chapter or use the bookmark package that cleans up the wrong leveling.



A third method involves reassigning the level numbers for the bookmarks, i.e. there is a toclevel@X which X standing for one of the above mentioned levels.



Please note, that this does not cure the problem that the sections appear with a 0 as prefix in the section number and section numbers are never reset this way (since the chapter counter is not stepped).



Summary: The proper way is to switch to article or including chapter as sectioning level.
