Hmm, the construction of the PDF is done by pdlatex/hyperref, not by R. What latex setup is this, and (guessing it is some version of MiKTeX) does it have a texi2dvi.exe? If so, the conversion from our .tex file to PDF is managed entirely by texi2dvi.exe, and my guess is that it has done too few passes. You should be able to verify that by using Rd2pdf --no-clean and running texi2dvi yourself on the saved .tex file. Most likely running pdflatex on the .tex one more time will resolve this, so if you want to check texi2dvi.exe you would need to copy the .tex elsewhere.

(The less likely alternative is that this is managed by tools::texi2dvi and it is doing too few passes.)

If you have not already done so it would be worth checking that your latex setup is fully updated: latex package hyperref is involved and that is updated very frequently (more than weekly).

I construct a pdf package manual in Windows 7 using

Page numbers are listed correctly under 'R topics documented' at the front, but 
incorrectly (offset by -2 pages) in the Index at the back. Following the 
hyperlinked page numbers in the Index takes you to the wrong page. 2 pages 
happens to be the length of the package overview man page inserted (out of 
alphabetical order) after 'R topics documented'.

I'd be grateful for suggestions on what might be causing this and how I might 
fix it. I'm using R 2.10.1 and Rtools 2.10.1.
