Table of contents

[AJ16]

Hi. The table of contents does not show the abstract. Is there any way to include the abstract in the table of contents too? Also, is that ok for the second, third page of abstract to be numbered?

Thanks a lot.

@johannesbottcher Thanks a lot. It worked. Please may I ask if you have any suggestion for the second question too?

[johannesbottcher]

I don't even know what you mean.

@johannesbottcher So I am not even sure this is an issue or not.

But for the abstract (or possibly any other thing) the page number for the first page is not shown. However, the page number will be shown for second page, etc. Is there anyway to push not to show the page number for second page?

[johannesbottcher]

An abstract usually doesn't extend over one page. If you want no page numbers, use \pagestyle{empty} inside the abstract environment.
Once more, this is explained in every LaTeX tutorial.

where to put this?

At the end of abstract.tex

\begin{abstract}
This is where you write your abstract ...
\end{abstract}
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Abstract}
