I am trying to compile a pdf from Latex source using TexStudio, which calls pdflatex. Take a look at the following code:

%documentclass{aastex62}

documentclass{article}



usepackage{hyperref}



begin{document}



section{The First}

section{The Second}

subsection{Section 2.1}



end{document}

Now, when I use the article class, I get a pdf that has the contents embedded:
Look, a working TOC

Whereas if I use the aastex62 class, I get nothing:
Nope, nothing to see here

Some things that I know:

1. aastex already calls hyperref, so I don't have to import it again. The issue I'm having isn't sensitive to this change.

2. This issue also happens in Overleaf, so it shouldn't be in any way dependent on my personal setup. Here is a minimum working overleaf example

3. This issue is similar/the same as this issue, but the solution there does not work with the aastex62 document class.

So, what do I need to do to make this work?

I am one of the maintainers of the AASTeX package; this is a known bug with the workaround given below.

For reasons as yet undetermined, the fact that the bookmarks=false is fixed in our AASTeX class file means that it cannot be overridden by the user via hypersetup. Other hyperref parameters, e.g., linkcolor= can be overridden via hypersetup, but not bookmarks.

Thus the fix is to hack aastex62.cls to change bookmarks=true. We will be fixing this in v6.3 of this classfile because a Table of Content is an important accessibility feature, which we should not be impeding.

This bug was originally raised and diagnosed (by me) here: https://github.com/AASJournals/AASTeX60/issues/72
