I want to make a custom Index of Symbols and Abbreviations list provided to me from my thesis template. Abbreviations should not be shown in the table of contents, only Index of Symbols and Abbreviations should be shown on the table of contents.

Here is my template:

enter image description here

Here is my MWE:

\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{geometry}
\usepackage{times}
\usepackage{setspace}
\usepackage[skip=12pt]{parskip}
\usepackage{anyfontsize}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage[toc, nopostdot, nonumberlist, style=long, automake, acronym]{glossaries}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{subcaption}
%\usepackage{float}
\usepackage{caption}
\usepackage{setspace}
\usepackage[backend=biber, maxcitenames=2, maxnames=2, style=bwl-FU]{biblatex}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{tocloft}
\usepackage{arydshln}

\makeglossaries


\newglossaryentry{latex}
{name=latex,description={Is a mark up language specially suited for scientific documents}}


\newglossaryentry{maths}{name=mathematics,description={Mathematics is what mathematicians do}}


\newglossaryentry{formula}{name=formula,description={A mathematical expression}}


\newacronym{gcd}{GCD}{Greatest Common Divisor}
\newacronym{lcm}{LCM}{Least Common Multiple}


\begin{document}


\tableofcontents
\newpage


\printglossary[type=\acronymtype, title={Index of Symbols and Abbreviations}]
\printglossary[title=Abbreviations]
\newpage


The \Gls{latex} typesetting markup language is specially suitable 
for documents that include \gls{maths}. \Glspl{formula} are 
rendered properly an easily once one gets used to the commands.


Given a set of numbers, there are elementary methods to compute 
its \acrlong{gcd}, which is abbreviated \acrshort{gcd}. This 
process is similar to that used for the \acrfull{lcm}.


\clearpage


\end{document}

Is there any way to make it like this?

Best Regards.

Adaptations

  • removed option toc from glossaries, so toc entries for glossaries are not automatically added
  • added toc entry manually: 
    \addcontentsline{toc}{section}{Index of Symbols and Abbreviations}
  • removed some unused packages

Result
