<div class="" style="word-wrap:break-word; line-break:after-white-space">I just finished writing up a longish (50pp) set of notes using TeXShop; in the process I ran into two sets of problems, one involving hyperref, the other a problem with the TeXShop editor.
I’m separating my questions into two emails. This one concerns hyperref, for which I can provide a reasonably minimal example. I’ll address my editor problems in a subsequent email.
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I have for quite some time used a modification of the \ref macro in latex, which works as follows: labels are always in the format \label{#1:#2}, where #1</div>
<div class="">identifies a descriptive term like ’Section” or “Theorem” and #2 identifies which one it is; then when I want to refer back to the labeled item, I write \refer{#1}{#2}</div>
<div class="">and what gets printed is the descriptive term followd by the number. I found this very useful, particularly in writing a book, to make the spelling and capitalization of cross references uniform.</div>
<div class="">Here is the style file whose main content is that macro:</div>
<div class=""></div>
</div>
<div style="word-wrap:break-word; line-break:after-white-space" class="">
<meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" class="">
<div class=""></div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">All has gone well, and as I recall (it’s been a few years) it seemed to work well with hyperref on my book project as well. But this time something went wrong. There are two problems, but I think only the first can be addressed in this forum.</div>
<div class="">Here are a short sourcefile and pdf output, as well as a log file:</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""></div>

<div class=""></div>
</div>
<div class="" style="word-wrap:break-word; line-break:after-white-space">
<div class=""></div>
<div class="">I find that when I compile this, if I immediately click on one of the (red) hyperlinked items, I am taken to the appropriate page (there are only two pages in this example). However, any subsequent click on a hyperlinked item gives me only a
little window showing what the text referred to looks like—it doesn’t go to the appropriate page. I should clarify that this behavior is when I am in view in TeXShop.When I open just the pdf (so it opens in Preview, not in TeXShop, the hyperlinks seem to
work.</div>
<div class="">I don’t know if there is something about the \refer macro that is conflcting with \hyperref, and if so, is there a workaround?</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">No. This will not have anything to do with the (back-end) macros that you use.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The small (Prelink) window is a feature added quite recently (say within 3 years).</div>
<div class="">It was used in Skim for awhile before it came into TeXshop’s Preview.</div>
<div class="">Someone else might be able to say exactly when (and why) this feature has been added to the TeXshop front-end.</div>
<div class="">It should show up simply by hovering your mouse over the active rectangle which is associated with the hyperlink.</div>
<div class="">Then actually clicking within that rectangle should activate the link as previously.</div>
<div class="">It may be that once the small Prelink window comes up, you cannot tell where the active rectangle is anymore,</div>
<div class="">or it may be completely obscured. </div>
<div class="">Is there a setting to shift where the Prelink window is located, w.r.t. the active rectangle?</div>
<div class="">Again, someone else may be able to answer this question.</div>

<div class="">The second hyperref problem is harder to pin down. I actually have a lot of self-defined macros, mostly formatting notation, so in my actual source file,</div>
<div class="">there were both a number of \usepackage commands in the preamble which referred to my macro packages—as well as pstricks and other packages—and a lot of \newcommands specific to the notes.</div>

Not at all uncommon.</div>

<div class="">
<div class="" style="word-wrap:break-word; line-break:after-white-space">
<div class="">I initially had the call to \hperref in the middle of my preamble, and then I was experiencing the problem described by the example. But then I looked at the hyperref manual and it said that the call should come after all the other calls. So
I moved it, and all hell broke loose.</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Yes.</div>
<div class="">That recommendation in the hyperref manual was made roughly 20 years ago.</div>
<div class="">The reasoning is that quite a few macros need to be patched to support automatic creation</div>
<div class="">of advanced PDF features, such as Bookmarks, hyperlinked cross-references to sections,</div>
<div class="">citations, etc. as well as external hyperlinking.</div>
<div class="">It was then thought that it was best to delay Hyperref until as late as possible, so that when it does </div>
<div class="">its patching, it will build on top of whatever other packages may have done themselves, earlier</div>
<div class="">within the preamble.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Such advice is now grossly out-dated.</div>
<div class="">There are better ways to delay the patching until other packages have been loaded.</div>
<div class="">Nowadays I find it best to load hyperref as early as possible, so that you know what </div>
<div class="">you have and can build on top of that (using the better methods).</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Another thing that is very important is that you don’t define home-grown macros</div>
<div class="">with names that will be altered by Hyperref, because they are standard in many</div>
<div class="">ways although you do not actually use them yourself. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">This next problem is an example of exactly this.</div>
<br class="">
<blockquote type="cite" class="">
<div class="">
<div class="">
<div class="" style="word-wrap:break-word; line-break:after-white-space">
<div class=""> For example, I had at one point decided to use fraktur in one place in the notes, so put in a short sequence of macros for typing a,b,c, d, and A in fraktur. Most of them were ok, except</div>
<div class="">\newcommand{\c}{\ensuremath{\mathfrak{c}}} led to an “unknown command” error once the hyperref command was moved to immediately precede the </div>
<div class="">\begin{document}. </div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I’m surprised that \newcommand{\c}{… } doesn’t throw an error immediately.</div>
<div class=""> \c is the accent command for a cedilla, as is rather common in French and other languages.</div>
<div class="">By making this definition, you will never be able to properly typeset a co-author or citation-author’s name</div>
<div class="">such as Fran\c{c}ois .</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">This affects hyperref, because in the advanced features it supports, it is necessary to declare </div>
<div class="">such macro names for encodings other than ones directed at specific font characters.</div>
<div class="">Hence all macros in commonly-used language encodings also become defined whenever hyperref is required. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">In my mind, having single-letter user-defined macros is a real no-no.</div>
<div class="">Very many letters are used this way already for various languages and encodings.</div>
<div class="">Thus you are just asking for trouble when using hyperref, unless you are very careful</div>
<div class="">in how you choose macro names.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Trying to find single-letter names that are not already used, and remembering what you defined them for </div>
<div class="">is just a fool’s game. Better is to be more descriptive: e.g. \frakc in your case.</div>
<div class="">Yes, it’s more typing, at first; but with copy/paste and/or command completion it really is not so.</div>
<div class="">Furthermore, your LaTeX sources become easier to read and understand/proofread than when every</div>
<div class="">3rd or 4th letter is a backslash.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Even 2-letter names commonly have another use. (\it, \rm, \tt, \sc, \sf, \ij, \dj, \dz , … )</div>
<div class="">The only 2-letter combinations that I use are ones that clearly jolt the mind as to</div>
<div class="">their intended meaning; e.g. \RR , \QQ, \CC etc. for \mathbb letters, or bold-face symbols.</div>
<div class="">Using \bb, \cc, \xx, \yy etc. for vectors is generally acceptable, but beware \tt and that \aa and \AA </div>
<div class="">already have a meaning. (think the symbol for Angstrøm units, or in Swedish names).</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<br class="">
<blockquote type="cite" class="">
<div class="">
<div class="">
<div class="" style="word-wrap:break-word; line-break:after-white-space">
<div class="">Also, one of the pstricks routines I used (pst-ode) defined some parameters via the statement </div>
<div class="">
<div class="" style="margin:0px; font-stretch:normal; font-size:12px; line-height:normal">
\pstVerb{</div>
<div class="" style="margin:0px; font-stretch:normal; font-size:12px; line-height:normal">

}</div>
<div class="">and this led to unknown command errors. (They disappeared if I moved the \hyperref call earlier).</div>
<div class="">Again, I don’t know what is going on, but this one is harder to correct because there are a lot of possible conflicts spread over many files.</div>
<div class="">However, I found it strange that this problem only occurred when I moved the hyperref call to the end of the preamble.</div>

<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Not so strange, when you realise that hyperref is encountering a macro name that it is trying to declare</div>
<div class="">for a standard meaning, but it has been usurped by something already defined.</div>

<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">My advice is to go back to loading it early,</div>
<div class="">and take great care about resolving any errors that you may encounter.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">If you have lots of foreign names in your References, check them to make sure</div>
<div class=""> a. that they are actually typeset correctly;</div>
<div class=""> b. try to Copy/Paste your whole reference section into a text-file; check</div>
<div class=""> for errors in the spellings that may result.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Also, I recommend doing:</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""> c. load the pdfx package to generate PDF/A-2u output, to attempt to conform to</div>
<div class=""> a published standard for Archivability.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">There is a lot of stuff in there specifically to allow you to detect and fix the kinds of</div>
<div class="">errors that are discussed above.</div>
<div class="">But you’ll need to check your PDFs with validation software.</div>
<div class="">There are a number of online PDF/A validators, so you don’t need to have purchased</div>
<div class="">a licence for Acrobat Pro, or other costly software. </div>
<div class="">(But if your institution gives you cheap access to Acrobat Pro, then it is well worth having.)</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
