I'm using autoref to refer to tables in the text, e.g.

In autoref{tab:main_result}, you can see ...

I'd like to be able to refer to a variable that lists the pages that tab:main_result is called on. The ultimate goal is to be able to put that reference in the table note (e.g. "For discussion of this table, see page XX").

Is this possible? I know that I could refer to the section in the table notes, but I'd like to be able to refer to the page.

  AFAICT, LaTeX doesn't provide any built-in facilities for keep tracking of where some item (e.g., a table) is being cross-referenced elsewhere in the document. A preprocessor approach might offer a viable solution. pdfLaTeX and XeLaTeX don't provide a built-in preprocessor facility, but LuaLaTeX does. Are you able to switch to and use LuaLaTeX?

When I first read this I thought that the question was asking for a command that gave the list of pages that contain a reference to a given table. That is, an analogue of backref for autoref instead of for cite. Rereading the question it probably does not ask for this but, nonetheless, I thought this an interesting question and the code below is one way of providing this functionality.

The code works by redefining the autoref command so that whenever it is called it first adds the current page number to a corresponding latex3 sequence. At the end of the document this sequence is saved to the aux file. Once the document has been compiled at least once the command pagerefs{...} can be used to print the list of pages that the reference appears on. So, for example, the MWE below produces:

Here is the code:

documentclass{article}

usepackage{lipsum}

usepackage{etoolbox}

usepackage{xparse}

usepackage{hyperref}



ExplSyntaxOn

NewDocumentCommandPageReferences{mm}{

  seq_if_exist:cF {g__pages_#1_seq}{

    seq_gset_from_clist:cn {g__pages_#1_seq} {#2}

  }

}

RenewDocumentCommandautoref{sm}{

  seq_if_exist:cF {g_pages_#2_seq}{

    seq_new:c {g_pages_#2_seq}

    }

  }

  seq_if_in:cxF {g_pages_#2_seq} {thepage} {

        seq_gput_right:cx {g_pages_#2_seq} {thepage}

  }
