I have a document with two sets of tables. The first set, numbered 1 to 5, are in the main body of the text. The second, numbered 1 to 3, are in an appendix.
When I use \ref
to link to one of the tables in the appendix, the hyperlink in the PDF file links to the corresponding table in the main section (so a link to appendix table 1 links to main table 1). This warning message is provided:
pdfTeX warning (ext4): destination with the same identifier (name{table.1})
has been already used, duplicate ignored
Clearly this is a counter problem: when I reset the table counter in the appendix, there are two tables with a counter of 1 and hyperref just points to the first one.
Related problems have been discussed on this forum, and a number of discussions can be found online, but I haven't been able to figure out a solution to this particular problem. (It seems more straightforward to fix the problem for page numbers.) Also, I get the sense that the aliascnt
package could work here, but I can't figure out how to make it work.
