I am using scrreprt-class and I am trying to modify the appearance of the appendix titles in the pdfbookmark.

In the image below, you can see what I have at the moment. I am using the appendices-environment and each appendix is a chapter on its own.

Now, I "only" want to add a colon in the ToC for the appendix entries. E.g. Appendix A: I am Appendix a, etc.

Please note that I want to stick to the KOMA-class "scrreprt".

Thanks in advance.

    (1) welcome, (2) as always on this site, you are much much more likely to get help if you provide a small but minimal example that others can try or use as a basis.

  • thans @daleif! i have provided a MWE. It does not look so minimal, but I would not know how else to get the result in the ToC and pdfbookmarks as shown with less code.

    The answer you link to does not take hyperref into account, also, it adds to \appendix but you are using the appendices env. I never use the KOMA stuff, so cannot help here. Note chapter does not actually use \chaptername but rather \@chapapp (at least in normal classes), this points to \chaptername whenever appendix is not active. Thus that \renewcommand does nothing.

    Also remember to copy all the relevant stuff when you copy from an answer. You're missing the package that gives \patchcmd

Here is a suggestion for the KOMA-Script class scrreprt but without package appendix:

\documentclass[
  12pt,
  twoside,
  openright,
  chapterprefix,
  numbers=noenddot% <- added: no dots at the end of section numbers etc.
]{scrreprt}

\usepackage[ngerman]{babel}
\usepackage{lmodern}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}

\usepackage{hyperref}
\hypersetup{linktoc=all,bookmarksopen=true, colorlinks, linkcolor = black}
\usepackage[all]{hypcap}        % needed to help hyperlinks direct correctly;
\usepackage[numbered]{bookmark}
\usepackage{booktabs}

\RedeclareSectionCommand[innerskip=0pt]{chapter} % <--- Vary distance here (Thanks @esdd!)

\DeclareTOCStyleEntry[
  level=\chaptertocdepth,
  indent=0pt,
  numwidth=2.3em,
  dynnumwidth,
  entrynumberformat=\appendixtocnumberformat,
]{chapter}{appendixchapter}
\newcommand*\appendixtocnumberformat[1]
  {\def\autodot{:}#1}

\usepackage{xpatch}
\xapptocmd{\appendix}
  {%
    \xpatchcmd{\chapterformat}{\autodot}{:}{}{\PatchFailedII}%
    \xpatchcmd{\chaptermarkformat}{\autodot}{:}{}{\PatchFailedIII}%
    \xpatchcmd{\addchaptertocentry}
      {\addtocentrydefault{chapter}{#1}{#2}}
      {%
        \ifstr{#1}{}
          {\addtocentrydefault{chapter}{}{#2}}
          {\addtocentrydefault{appendixchapter}{\appendixname\ #1}{#2}}%
      }{}{\PatchFailedIV}%
  }{}{\PatchFailedI}

\usepackage{lipsum}% only for dummy text
\begin{document}
\phantomsection
\pdfbookmark{Inhaltsverzeichnis}{toc}   %Inhaltsverzeichnis in die Hyperlink-Navigation
\setcounter{tocdepth}{4}
\tableofcontents

\chapter{Test}
\lipsum

\appendix
\chapter{This is a test heading}
\end{document}

Run three times to get:

Note that I have removed the unused global options longdoc, bigchapter, colorback, numbersubsubsec.

Because of the question in a comment below:

If the colon should also be in the bookmarks you have to added it to the \addtocentrydefault{appendixchapter}{...}{...} line:

\addtocentrydefault{appendixchapter}{\appendixname\ #1:}{#2}

and to change the redefinition of \autodot in \appendixtocnumberformat:

\newcommand*\appendixtocnumberformat[1]
  {\def\autodot{}#1}

Complete example with the colon in bookmarks too:

\documentclass[
  12pt,
  twoside,
  openright,
  chapterprefix,
  numbers=noenddot% <- added: no dots at the end of section numbers etc.
]{scrreprt}

\usepackage[ngerman]{babel}
\usepackage{lmodern}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}

\usepackage{hyperref}
\hypersetup{linktoc=all,bookmarksopen=true, colorlinks, linkcolor = black}
\usepackage[all]{hypcap}        % needed to help hyperlinks direct correctly;
\usepackage[numbered]{bookmark}
\usepackage{booktabs}

\RedeclareSectionCommand[innerskip=0pt]{chapter} % <--- Vary distance here (Thanks @esdd!)

\DeclareTOCStyleEntry[
  level=\chaptertocdepth,
  indent=0pt,
  numwidth=2.3em,
  dynnumwidth,
  entrynumberformat=\appendixtocnumberformat,
]{chapter}{appendixchapter}
\newcommand*\appendixtocnumberformat[1]
  {\def\autodot{}#1}% <- changed

\usepackage{xpatch}
\xapptocmd{\appendix}
  {%
    \xpatchcmd{\chapterformat}{\autodot}{:}{}{\PatchFailedII}%
    \xpatchcmd{\chaptermarkformat}{\autodot}{:}{}{\PatchFailedIII}%
    \xpatchcmd{\addchaptertocentry}
      {\addtocentrydefault{chapter}{#1}{#2}}
      {%
        \ifstr{#1}{}
          {\addtocentrydefault{chapter}{}{#2}}
          {\addtocentrydefault{appendixchapter}{\appendixname\ #1:}{#2}}% <- changed
      }{}{\PatchFailedIV}%
  }{}{\PatchFailedI}

\usepackage{lipsum}% only for dummy text
\begin{document}
\phantomsection
\pdfbookmark{Inhaltsverzeichnis}{toc}   %Inhaltsverzeichnis in die Hyperlink-Navigation
\setcounter{tocdepth}{4}
\tableofcontents

\chapter{Test}

\appendix
\chapter{This is a test heading}
\end{document}

  • thanks @esdd. Which lines would I have to change to include the colons in the pdfbookmarks as well? I am trying to understand the logic in the code.

  • I've noticed that the given declaration of the ToC style entry causes the vertical spacing of the appendix ToC entries to be modified from the default. Is there a way to enforce the default vertical spacing?

    @dan Thank you for the hint. See my updated answer: I have added beforeskip=1em plus 1pt to the declaration of the new ToC style entry to get the same vertical spacing as for chapters.

Not really an answer, but here i how it could be done using the memoir class

\documentclass[a4paper]{memoir}

\usepackage[ngerman]{babel}      % deutsche Trennregeln
\usepackage{lmodern}             % fixes bug with \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}; ändert Schriftart zudem in Latin Modern
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}         % für europäische Autoren ratsam; % wichtig für Trennung von Wörtern mit Umlauten
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}


\usepackage{hyperref}           
\hypersetup{linktocpage=true,  linktoc=all,bookmarks=true, bookmarksopen=true, colorlinks, linkcolor = black}
\usepackage[numbered]{bookmark}

%\renewcommand\cftchaptername{\chaptername~}
\renewcommand\cftappendixname{\appendixname~}
\makeatletter
\AtBeginDocument{
\bookmarksetup{%
 addtohook={%
   \ifnum\toclevel@chapter=\bookmarkget{level}\relax
     \ifanappendix
       \renewcommand*{\chapternumberline}[1]{\appendixname~#1:~}%
     \fi  
   \fi
 },
}
}
\makeatother

\cftinsertcode{APP}{
  \renewcommand\cftchapteraftersnum{:~}
}

\usepackage{lipsum}


\begin{document}

%%% TOC
\phantomsection                             
\pdfbookmark{Inhaltsverzeichnis}{toc}   %Inhaltsverzeichnis in die Hyperlink-Navigation mit aufnehmen 
%\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Inhaltsverzeichnis}
\setcounter{tocdepth}{4}
\tableofcontents*

%%% Testpage
\chapter{Test}
\lipsum

%%%% APPENDIX
%\begin{appendices}

\appendix

\cftinserthook{toc}{APP}


\chapter{This is a test heading}
%\end{appendices}


\end{document}

A solution independent of the document class would be to simply specify an alternative chapter name for the TOC which includes a colon, and then to correct for the spacing with \hspace. I.e. instead of using

\chapter{This is a test heading}

one can use

\chapter[\hspace{-0.3cm}: This is a test heading]{This is a test heading}

enter image description here

Update: As pointed out by egreg, the above solution will change the headers as well. Since "Appendix " is not always printed in the headers, one could compenstate this by using fancyhdr. For instance

\fancyhead[LO, RE]{\fancyplain{}{\appendixname\hspace{1ex}\thechapter \hspace{0.3cm}\nouppercase\leftmark}}

  • Welcome to TeX.SX! The optional entry will also be used for the headers, at least in the standard classes.

  • Thank you :-) Good point with the headers. Actually that seems to be quite favorable to me if the alternative name will be used in the headers as well, this is exactly what I would want. As long as the chapter titles are spared since there the "Appendix <X>" is sometimes in a separate line and thus no colon needed. Update: Actually it doesn't work as I expected, since in the header the term "Appendix <X>" is not printed at all...
