Same picture on every table of contents page.

I noticed when adding a picture to the table of contents 10th chapter that it applies to the first nine also. How can I stop this from happening.

From memory, you can paste with cmd-shift-V.

Shaded band on Table of Contents page

Hi everyone
I wonder if anyone can help me with a query on the Table of Contents page? Everything is looking good except that at the bottom of the page there is a shaded square on the left and a band all the way across the page and extending beyond the green b/g. It doesn't look like it is part of the design of the TOC page and is a bit unattractive. This is the "Natural Science" template.
In chapters where I have lots of sections in the contents list, the section names do not show up well in this shaded part. I have moved everything around on the page so that the text box with the section names is on the RH side and the heading on the left, but this section text box has to be pushed further up the page because of the lower shaded band and looks a bit unnatural there.
Any ideas? I enclose a picture of an example page to show what I am seeing.
Many thanks
Eluned

I can help a bit by saying that those shaded areas at the bottom are placeholders for the thumbnails or preview images of your chapter's sections and pages. When working properly it looks like a film strip.
What I can't say is why yours aren't showing up. I'm having the same problem and signed into the forums to look for solutions to this. I hope someone else can offer a suggestion for us both.

Creating a table of contents page using combined documents

Adobe Version 7.0
When combining multiple documents as one .pdf document, can a table of contents page be set up simultaneously? If so, can page numbers be added?
We have several type of documents (.xls, doc, pdf) that we combine on a regular basis to create one document to view on line and/or print in a book format. We manually type a Table of Contents page to correspond with those documents and manually insert page numbers. Is there a better way?

I would suggest you create the base document in WORD and then print all to a new PDF. That may provide the functionality you want with an automatic table of contents creation.

Two different page numbers in the same line in my Table of Contents

Hi,
I'm having trouble finding a solution to this problem. My table of contents entries are showing two numbers instead of one. I don't understand how this happened.
The entries should look like this:
These are my Table of Contents settings:
I've been searching all over the internet for a solution but I can't find any. Hope you guys can help.

Hi Peter, thanks for the reply. I appreciate it. I solved the problem already. Though I don't know why, I deleted the old table of contents first before making the new one. And the problems now solved. Thanks again!

Table of contents pages are all messed up

Yikes.
I brought in a photoshop file for each chapter as the chapter title. On the chapters it looks great.
On the table of contents it's using the same photoshop file and quote for all twenty chapters, but it does change the photos for each chapter.
I can't delete the text boxes either.
So, how do I make it so the table of contents recognizes what text and chapter headers are on the actual pages?
Many, many thanks!

Can't get marching ants. Here are photos so you see what could be going wrong.
Here's how the chapter looks in the book:
Here's how the table of Contents looks:
The text is exactly the same for every chapter. If I change it it does an overalll change for every chapter page in the TOC.
Thank you so much for any help,

How do I create a Table of Contents page for ePub that link?

I am new to E-Publishing, I have been able to my overall book but cannot figure out the Table of Contents. I need them to link to the chapter page. I have created a table of contents and they dont link. I tried to create hyperlink within the document but they only work in the pdf version and not the ePub. What can i do so that they link in the ePub version as well ?
I dont know if this information would be helpful but I also wanted to mention that All the chapter names are set to the same style, and that the Table of content I have created so far was made through the TOC option in InDesign. Also the layout is fixed and I am using InDesign CC 2014

Make sure the TOC is in the style source document
Thank you so much! This was the thing I did wrong. There had been another document marked for style source. Now it works perfectly.

How can I put pictures in a table in Numbers / Pages 10. ?

Hello
I have the new version of Numbers and Pages 10.
Does anyone know how I can put pictures in a table, it always changes my picture into a background...That is annoying!
It worked perfectly with Numbers / Pages 09...
I really hope anyone knows how to do it, I have to prepare a list till tomorrow and it drives me mad!
Thanks a lot!
Miss V.

There is no such thing as Numbers or Pages 10. The newest versions are Numbers 3.0.1 & Pages 5.0.1. The suite is sometimes referred to iWork '13, even by Apple, as that when it was released.
Pictures in tables is just one of the 90+ features that didn't make it into the "new & improved, rewritten from the ground up” Pages 5 & Numbers 3. Leave feedback for the Pages team using the link in the Pages menu and review & rate the new versions in the Mac App Store. Do the same for Numbers.
If you previously had iWork '09, those apps are still in your Applications folder in a folder named iWork '09. You can continue to use them to get things done.

Table of Contents - Page Range

I am formatting a catalog in Indesign CS5 and I am trying to work out snags now before our vendors send in their files. I have a simple template with the Product Classification and the Section at the top of each page (created as master pages, different master for each section but all based on the same master) and I want to automate a Table of Contents to include each Product classification. I formatted each product class with the same paragraph style and when I generate the TOC, it simply lists each page number instead of a range which is what I would expect it to do. For example:
Product Classification A........2
Product Classification A........3
Product Classification A........4
The same product class runs across multiple pages, and because I have the paragraph style applied in the master page they show up as individual TOC entries.   I was wondering if there was a way to automate the TOC with page ranges, instead of just each instance of the paragraph style. The only workaround I could come up with was just including the text that I want to show in TOC on a hidden layer on the first page of the page range with the correct paragraph style applied to each one and then typing the range in manually after my whole catalog is finished. Or I could just let ID do its thing and then delete the unecessary entries when it's updated.
I need it to look like this:
Product Classification A.......2-4
Product Classification B.......5-10
Better yet, I need the heirarchy to look like this if possible:
Section
     Product Classification A.......2-4
     Product Classification B.......5-10
In order for items to show up in an automated TOC, they have to be overridden in the document (if they are on master pages)...so I don't think I could even automate it this last way unless I would override all master items, which would cause more harm than good in this case ( I never know when something might change).
Could someone offer a solution or another workaround that might be easier than just typing out the TOC and formatting it by hand?
Thanks in advance.

The commercial InDesign Cross-References Plug-In from dtptools.com might work for you. There are some free supplementary scripts mentioned on the product page that you can request. One creates a TOC by using cross-references to extract source content that you specify. It works a lot like the built-in InDesign TOC tool, but it may be more customizable. There's a free trial. If you can't make it do what you need, often an email to their support techs will get a prompt reply (allowing for time differences between Europe and wherever you are) and some useful suggestions.

Table of Contents page numbers on next line (solution won't work!)

I'm having this problem where the page number for my item in the table of contents appears on the next line instead of allt he way to the right on the same line. Example:
Chapter 1 . . . . . . . . . . . .
4
instead of
Chapter 1 . . . . . . . . . . . .4
A solution has already been posted, but it won't work for me:
"This is simple to solve. Select the TOC entry and show the text inspector. There press the "Tab" button for the tabulator seetings. At the bottom is a list of tab stops. Select the last one with a double click and set the number to a slight lower number then the width of your TOC area is. Make sure the tab stop is for right aligning by activating the button on the right side of the tab stop list (but I think it is already). Do that for all TOC levels and don't forget to save the styles." -Frank
When I try to do this, I type my desired tab stop in (5 in, incidentally) and then as soon as I click outside the field it reverts to the default, which is the full width of my column.
Anyone know why this might be? Thank you!

Just to be clear, are you trying to set you tab stop at the 5 inch mark? What is your left margin setting? I believe the tab setting is the distance from the left margin, not the actual point along the paper width. Since you said in an earlier post that you are working on a booklet, I thought perhaps your left margin + 5 may be exceeding the allowable width inside your margins.

How do create a table of contents page from a series of bookmarks?

I am compiling bundles of documents for printing, starting from single PDFs. I combine them using Acrobat Pro X for Mac which gives me a single PDF, with a series of bookmarks for each document. I then insert page numbers.
What I need is a way of creating a table of contents for printing (as opposed to a "digial T.O.C" - ie the bookmarks list). Ideally, I would need a script that would copy the list of bookmarks and the page numbers for each and dump them to a new page in the PDF bundle (or a text file).
That way I can print the PDF with a Table of Contents at the front.
There was an entry on the Acobrat for Legal Professionals blog a while back (http://blogs.adobe.com/acrolaw/2009/12/list_bookmarks_with_a_free_scrip/) - as far as I can tell that hint only works for Acrobat 9.
Any help gratefully received

Rick Borstein created an Action in Acrobat X Pro., that allows you to create a Bookmark Report. You might see if that does the trick.

Extract Title and specific table of content/pages in set of PDF's

I need to extract the title of each PDF and a specific content and its pages. For example i have a folder full of PDF's and i need to find in the Table of Contents a heading called Enhancements if there. If Enhancement content is there copy the Title of the PDF usually on first page and copy the Enhancement section and place in another PDF as chronology of enhancements.I have AA Standard X
What tool can do this?

You could certainly use the SDK to write a custom plugin to Acrobat (in C/C++) that would do what you require. It's not trivial, however.

Creating button that will take you to table of contents pages

I'm using CS4 and have created a 30 page document with a table of contents (TOC) on page 2. On my master page I have previous and next page buttons that have rollover states. These work.
I want a button in the middle that will take you to the TOC page.
I have tried creating a text anchor on page 2 and setting the action of my button to go to anchor but in the button window the text anchors area is grayed out and has 'none' in it.
I also tried to have a button with a rollover state just for show (no action assigned) and putting an invisible hyperlink on top of the button. The link goes to page 2. This only works on the areas where my hyperlink does not overlap the button.
Is there a way around this?

Hi Sparkgapper,
Is this a Pages question? YOu are in the Numbers for Mac forum.
From your profile, is this an iWork '09 question?

Table of contents page numbers to PDF hyperlinks ??

Help!
Is it possible to have InD create automatic hyperlinks when it exports Table of Contents lines. The idea would be that when someone clicks on a line in the TOC in the PDF file, it automatically takes them to the proper page. I know it is possible to do this individually using Acrobat Pro. I'm wondering if InD can set up the TOC to create the links automatically upon exporting to PDF.
Thanks

Hi,
I am having problems trying to do this very thing, I have a book of about 350 pages and I have my table of contents, but I cannot figure out how to make the Table of Contents where you can click in the PDF to take you to that page.
There surely has to be an automatic way of doing this...Im in CS5
Please advise.
Thanks in advance.

Can you double space a table of contents page?

Sorry for this newbie question. I have searched help and the forum and I can't find an answer that helps me. I have a document that I'm working with and the table of contents if functional. However, I would like to doublespace the table of contents lines and I can't figure out how to do that. Would anyone have any suggestions? Thank You for your time!

Select the TOC then Inspector > T tab > Text > Line , there is a small button to the right >Double
Or in the Format bar > Line spacing button

Word 2013 Table of contents - page numbers all change to 2 when print (or print preview)

I have a single section document in Word 2013. The first page is a TOC. The document is 4 pages long and has three Level 1 Heading styles through out the document. The TOC initially appears correct.
When I go to Print Preview the TOC will revert all page numbers to 2.
Changing the Options "Update fields before printing" and "Allow fields containing tracked changes to update before printing" has no effect (before anyone suggests this).
The only solution is to manually update the TOC, save to PDF, and print the PDF.
Anyone can reproduce this problem. Try it....
Start with blank document
Insert a TOC (ignore the error message, we will come back to this)
Go to the end of the document and insert a page break to move to page 2
Now type a heading in Heading 1 style and press enter
type some dummy text (=rand(20) for example)
Continue steps 4 and 5 to insert more headings and dummy text.
Now return to the top (page 1) and update the TOC
So far so good. Everything working well
Now go to Print Preview (Ctrl+P)
Everything is still good
Escape back to the document
Go to Print Preview again
AGGGHHHH! All the page numbers have reverted to page 2
Happens every time without fail. Totally reproducible on all our office PCs.
I have seen many descriptions of this behavior on different forums and
not one solution. But I am like the proverbial dog with a bone - I will not let this issue go until MS gives me a solution !

Hi PHultin -
Thanks for reporting your issue.
For investigation would need the sample document.
Request you to please share your email id for correspondence.
