#enumeratelists
I'm trying to get a list of custom labels. Here is what I've tried:
\begin{enumerate}[Exercise (1)]
\item first
\item second
\end{enumerate}
This results in each item being labeled as: Exerc#se (#)
Where # is the number of the item in the list. How can I make the "i" in exercise not be pattern matched?
Using a \ doesn't work, it causes syntax error.
You should force the adjustment to be left using enumitem:
\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{enumitem}
\begin{document}
\noindent Some text before
\begin{enumerate}[align=left]
\item[$(1)\Rightarrow (2)$:] Proof 1
\item[$(2)\Leftrightarrow (3)$:] Proof 2
\item[$(2)\Rightarrow (1)$:] Proof 3
\end{enumerate}
Some text after
\end{document}
A global setting is also possible via \setlist[enumerate]{align=left}.
The backref option to hyperref can take a value. By default it is section, but this does not seem to be giving the correct output, as it picks up the item number instead inside an enumerate. On the other hand you are requesting a page ref, and passing the page option does work:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[backref=page]{hyperref}
\begin{document}
\begin{enumerate}
\item A
\item B
\item C~\cite{art}
\end{enumerate}
\bibliographystyle{plain}
\bibliography{test}
\end{document}
with test.bib
@Article{art,
author = {Author, A. N.},
title = {On\dots},
journal = {J. Jour.},
year = 2004
}

As documented in the package documentation, letters inside
