How can I make one chapter (Conclusion) without number?
I have tried this:
\documentclass{report}
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\chapter{Introduction}
\chapter{Chapter 1}
\chapter*{Conclusion}
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Conclusion}
\end{document}
I have this
But I want:
1 Conclusion
2 Perspectives
not
5 Conclusion
6 Perspectives
For the standard classes (article, report, book) you can use the starred version of \chapter which suppresses the number but also the TOC entry, so you hav to add it manually with \addcontentsline
\documentclass{report}
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\chapter*{Introduction}
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Introduction}
\chapter{Chapter 1}
\chapter{Chapter 2}
\end{document}
or with KOMA-Script (scrartcl,scrreprt,scrbook) which provides \addchap for this case (and \addsec of sections):
\documentclass{scrreprt}
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\addchap{Introduction}
\chapter{Chapter 1}
\chapter{Chapter 2}
\end{document}
I don’t know about memoire’s behavior when using \chapter
Package hyperref needs the counter values to generate unique anchor names. But there are counter values that are not unique. For example, you have several sections with number 1.
Because of this, hyperref has introduced \theH<counter> and prefers it over \the<counter> for use in anchor names. \the<counter> might contain weird or duplicate values. As long as \theH<counter> expands to a simple unique string, hyperref is happy.
The following example provides unique definitions for \theHsection:
\documentclass{report}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{bookmark}
\bookmarksetup{
numbered,
open
}
\renewcommand*{\thesection}{\arabic{section}}
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\chapter{First numbered chapter}
\section{AB}
\section{BC}
\section{DE}
\chapter*{First unnumbered chapter}
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{First unnumbered chapter}
\setcounter{section}{0}
\renewcommand*{\theHsection}{chX.\the\value{section}}
\section{FG}
\section{HI}
\section{IJ}
\chapter*{Second unnumbered chapter}
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Second unnumbered chapter}
\setcounter{section}{0}
\renewcommand*{\theHsection}{chY.\the\value{section}}
\section{KL}
\section{MN}
\section{NO}
\renewcommand*{\theHsection}{\theHchapter.\the\value{section}}
\chapter{Last numbered chapter}
\section{PQ}
\section{RS}
\section{TU}
\end{document}

\chapter*doesn't increment thechaptercounter, which resets the section counter. It's easiest to just reset thesectioncounter to 0:
