Hello Thomas,

thanks for taking the time to report this. I created the linked branch which tries to keep the page-relative positions when just jumping to a new page a no explicit new page-relative position is given. Could you build it from the sources and give it a try?

Jumping to a link does not center the link position, but rather some links (within PDF documents at least) contain explicit set-left-of-viewport and/or set-top-of-viewport information which we try to follow as best as we can w.r.t. the current view mode. So if your link to an equation moves the equation itself out of the viewport, then these hints maybe wrong. Could you provide an example file where this happens?

Best regards, Adam.

P.S.: Have you tried the "Trim margins" setting available in newer versions which will try to automatically remove empty margins so that one can for example use fit-to-width view modes more comfortably.
