List of symbols with page numbers based on symbol position
I'm using the code below to create a list of symbols consisting of the symbol, description, and page number. The problem is that the page number displayed is the number where the list appears, and it doesn't show the actual page numbers based on the symbol position, as shown in the attached image.
\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{report}
\usepackage{geometry}
\geometry{margin=1in}
\usepackage{nomencl}
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\usepackage{etoolbox}
\usepackage{setspace}
\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb}
\usepackage{helvet}
\renewcommand{\familydefault}{\sfdefault}
\pagestyle{fancy}
\fancyhf{}
\fancyfoot[C]{\thepage}
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt}

I use build.bat
@echo off
set FNAME=min
echo 1) Running pdflatex (1st pass)...
pdflatex -interaction=nonstopmode %FNAME%.tex
echo.
echo 2) Running makeindex for nomenclature...
makeindex %FNAME%.nlo -s nomencl.ist -o %FNAME%.nls
echo.
echo 3) Running pdflatex (2nd pass)...
pdflatex -interaction=nonstopmode %FNAME%.tex
echo.
echo Done. Check %FNAME%.pdf
pause
What is the problem with the correct page number not appearing? Please help.
