I had to place \reference[]{} in various places in my document as I need
to refer to page numbers of a lot of various items in the document.
There are hundreds of these. When placing them, I hadn't realized it
would impact the document design--I assumed such a command would be
invisible.
Though I've tried placing as many inside the section titles, where they
become invisible, I've found just placing \reference[]{} anywhere on a
page will create extra blank spaces, leading my document to expand from
440 lines to 448. It added up quite quickly to 8 whole pages. No matter
how much I use % or try to hide it within the page, it still produces
weird results. It isn't invisible, its doing things to the document,
moving text around, leaving gaps. In addition, it makes the document
look haphazard, creating random formatting "glitches".
I'm assuming because \reference has a curly bracket {} that its causing
something to be rendered, even it its not really something visible
always, it often makes a carriage return on the page if placed say after
a table, or before a section title. Sadly, the way the document was
designed I don't have a way to integrate them inside the section titles
everywhere, there are too many and some need to mark a specific page
within a section.
I haven't placed anything inside the {} and only use the square brackets
to mark the reference name. Is there an alternative command that won't
occupy space like this?
Did you learn anything from the answers of your last question [1] with
similar content?
Hint: Minimal example!
