How to set title of TOC in Latex hyperref package

The latex hyperref package makes a really nice, linked table of contents, named according to section name. However, the top level category is by default, the file name. It seems I should be able to change this to the actual title, but I'm not finding any information on how.

Solution

  • Are you sure this is not a 'feature' of your PDF reader? It might try to use the PDFs title (unset by default), which you can set like this:

    \hypersetup{
    pdftitle = {The title},
    pdfauthor = {You}
}
