<div class="">Hi All,<br class="">
<br class="">
About 12 years ago, I was having problems with a side effect of typesetting using pdflatex and all the sync options: the preview screen would jump a few pages immediately after typesetting. Looking back at my old emails, I think refreshing the version of pdfsync.sty
(or something like this) solved it. The problem has come back. Does anyone know what is happening? (I just installed the full TeXLive 2020 and am using TeXshop).<br class="">

<div class="">What type of document is it?</div>
<div class="">It a book, or long article with extensive frontmatter, such as Tables of Contents, Figures, etc.</div>
<div class="">which are not there on the first run, the Preview may well seem to jump as these are created and included on the next run. </div>
<div class="">Similarly as cross-references are resolved into meaningful anchor text, pagination can change, affecting also float placement. Again this can cause the Preview to seem to move to a different page when it is actually the same numbered (virtual) page.</div>

Hope this helps.

The problem arose very recently even though I have been working on the book for more than a year. I didn’t add anything recently which requires cross-references and haven’t added any references yet. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I just updated all my packages using the TeX Live Utility and the problem seems to have settled down - it might have been fixed.
