I'm using the hyperref package to create a Table of Contents with internal links (bookmarks in Acrobat Reader). However, I don't like the fact that it jumps a little too low when the links are clicked. I'd rather like the links to display the relevant pages directly starting with the top of the page.

In other words, I want the same behaviour as with the \bookmark command I'm also using:

\usepackage{bookmark}
\bookmark[page=10]{Some Page}

MWE:

\documentclass[oneside,a4paper,11pt,headings=normal,parskip=half,version=first]{scrreprt}

\usepackage[pdftex,colorlinks=true]{hyperref}

\makeindex

In this question, old package versions is blamed for this. Try to upgrade to the newest versions if you don't have them. – tohecz Nov 6 '12 at 21:43
Negative! Updated to latest version but no difference. – weiglt Nov 6 '12 at 22:42
The hyperlinks and bookmarks both appear fine (according to me) on my system. Perhaps include the output of \listfiles (and version of Adobe Reader, and zoom level, and screenshots of the problem...)? If you would like to change all the links to link to the top of pages instead of the relevant sections regardless, perhaps change the question title to reflect this. – cyberSingularity Nov 6 '12 at 23:04
Okay, now I see that the behaviour you are getting is the expected behaviour, but not the desired behaviour. I believe there is nothing so simple as an option to the hyperref package to achieve what you want, but it should still be possible with some work. I'm not sure I'll be able to help as I do not know enough about hyperref internals, but someone else may be able to assist... – cyberSingularity Nov 6 '12 at 23:25

Yes, the anchor position can be improved by moving it downwards. But I do not see the point in moving the anchor upwards showing lots of white space.

For example, \@chapter can be redefined to move \refstepcounter to the position you want:

\documentclass[oneside,a4paper,11pt,headings=normal,parskip=half,version=first]{scrreprt}

\usepackage{etoolbox}
\makeatletter
\newcommand*{\chapter@refstepcounter}[1]{%
  \hbox{%
    \raisebox{\dimexpr\headsep+\headheight\relax}[0pt]{%
      \refstepcounter{#1}%
    }%
  }%
}
\patchcmd\@chapter{\refstepcounter}{%
  \chapter@refstepcounter
}{}{}
\makeatother

\usepackage[pdftex,colorlinks=true]{hyperref}

\makeindex

\begin{document}
...
\end{document}

Thanks, it seems that it can be done that way (still a bit too low in your example, but almost ok). However, if it's that complicated, i'll probably drop the idea. – weiglt Nov 10 '12 at 20:00
