How do I add a title to my table of contents in Pages?

I am attempting to write a research paper using the paragraph styles and headings features.  I have also added a table of contents, which looks great and allows me to jump to each section of the paper.  HOWEVER, I can't seem to be able to title that table of contents page.  All I want it to say is "Table of Contents", which should be simple, right?  I don't want to put it in the header because APA formatting is very particular about how all of this stuff should look, so this title needs to really be in the body of the page.  How do I make this happen?
Many thanks.

The TOC is a block of text.
Get your cursor in front of it by clicking or using your arrow keys, then hit return to make a new paragraph before the TOC and type your Head in that.

  • How do I add a subtitle to a table of contents?

    I was assigned the role of building an Indesign template to possibly replace the MS word one we currently use but I have never touched this software before. With lots of googling I have fumbled my way through it a bit but I can't seem to figure this one out.
    If I just add it, it gets removed on update so... I'm at a loss. Is the only option to stick another text box there? I was trying to avoid that.
    I come frome a coding background so I'm not shying away from that option if possible.

    Not sure what it is you are trying to do here.
    A TOC is based on Paragraph styles that you include, and it should be in its own frame, not threaded to other stories. Are you saying, perhaps that you want a heading over the page numbers?
    You can add that by inserting a paragraph above the first listing in the generated TOC (once it's placed, you can edit it normally like any other story), but you'll have to do it again each time the TOC is updated. You could also change the "contents" line to read Contents^n^yPage and then do a GREP search in Find/Change to find \^n\^y and change to \n~y and it will add the linebreak and a right indent tab. The ^n^y is not a required code in this case -- you can use anything you like as long as it doesn't appear elsewhere -- and you can use any sort of tab you like after the break, too. If you save the find/change query it will be slightly faster than re-entering manually after a TOC update.

  • How do you add a validator on a table?

    Hi,
    I have an ADF table. The user can add or remove elements to this table.
    I want to add a validator on the table, that will be invoked, when I leave the page.
    This validator will check if the user has added at-least one entry in the row.
    I created the validator. I cannot hook it to the "af:table" component. The table component does not provide any kind of validator attribute.
    I tried adding "<af:validator></af:validator>" within the table and it didn't work.
    How do you add a validator on the table?

    Olivier,
    My page fragment that contains the table, is 3/5 train stop out of a train.
    So when I say leave the page, I mean navigate to the next or previous train stop.
    All I want to do is make sure that the user added at-least one row to the table e.g. one contact. This kind of validation does not belong on the entity. That is because that validation will not get fired until the commit point; which in my scenario will be on the 5th train stop i.e. too late.
    As for your other suggestion about adding a button or a link, that is not an option. A button or a link would require explicit user action. What happens if the user doesnot click the link or the button? Then the validation will not be invoked and the user will be allowed to go to the next fragment without adding the contact row.

  • How do I add the word "DRAFT" as a watermark on a Pages document?

    How do I add the word "DRAFT" as a watermark on a Pages document?
    I don't want to create an image - I just want to type in the word and have it appear across every page.

    Jean,
    This assumes that you are working in Word Processing Mode.
    o Insert a Text Box on your first page.
    o Type "Draft" in the text box.
    o Select the word "Draft" and on the Format Bar select 144 pt. font size.
    o Enlarge the text box to fit the text and drag it to the center of the page.
    o Select the text again and click on the Color Well on the Format Bar.
    o Drag the Opacity Slider on the color palette to 50% or so, making the text look like a watermark.
    o Then From the Pages Menu, select Format > Advanced > Move Object to Section Master.
    The word DRAFT will now appear on each page of the section. If you have multiple sections, you will have to paste the text box into each Section and move it to the Master layer.
    Hope this does it for you.

  • How do I add a PDF file for download to my iWeb page?

    How do I add a PDF file for download to my iWeb page?
    I have created one using Apples Pages program.
    Thanks!

    Hi-
    You need to create a text link to the file...
    On your page, type a word that you want to be the link... then select the word, and in the inspector pane, click the link tab (the arrow on the far right) and check "enable as hyperlink." Then choose "file" from the dropdown menu and a chooser box will open for you to locate the file on your hard drive.
    Choose the file by clicking "open" once it's located. Then the next time you publish, the file will be uploaded and linked to!
    Hope this helps... I think I got all the steps in there!

    Hi KT,
    That was helpful, but I'm still having problems.
    I've plonked a Facebook logo on the page.
    BUT I can't seem to give it a hyperlink to my Facebook page.
    When I select the logo and then use the tool bars or the box thingy. It won't allow me to paste in the URL.
    It looks a bit ugly having a Facebook logo and the text of the URL beside it.
    Is there a way of making the Facebook logo have a hyperlink to its URL so you just click on the logo and it takes you to the facebook page.
    regards

  • How to create a Table of Contents using Pages 09?

    Hi guys,
    I have little problems creating a Table of Contents in Pages, though it seems quite simple. I'm working with the template 'Term Paper' and I use paragraph styles (Title, Heading I, II, etc.). I have some very long documents (about 80 pages long) so I wanted to create a TOC (using sections) but it says:
    The table of contents is empty because none of the paragraph styles selected in the Document Inspector are used in the document.
    When I compare the paragraph styles I do use and the paragraph styles in the Document Inspector, they match. So I'm a bit upset about this because I really need to use this great feature!
    Thanks for you answers guys!

    I would say: Try and Error. Create a copy of your document and unmark in the copied document in the document inspector all boxes for the TOC. Then mark them again. Maybe you should also delete the paragraph styles and mark them again. If that doesn't work, try to copy the complete text of your document to a new created one. Maybe that works.
    Good luck!
    P.S.: If that doesn't work look here. Maybe this helps.

  • How do I get rid of the extra table of contents that appears following the Pages export to epub?

    When I export my document to epub out of Pages and then open it in ibooks (or any other ereader for that matter)  an extra table of contents with links to the document sections appears at the beginning. This toc has its own numbering system--with its numbers set in front of those I have assigned. This toc is ugly and superfluous and doesn't seem to have anything to do with the table of contents available in the dropdown menu used while actually reading the document. How do I get rid of this extra table of contents? I'm sure I must be missing something obvious, but I can't find a way to remove it. Thanks for any help with this problem.

  • How Do I Add A Title To My Outline?

    Sick of MS WORD so I broke down and bought PAGES this morning. So far I like it, but I was most excited about using the Outline Mode, however I'm trying to add a title to my outline, but I can only make it one of the actual bullet points. Anyone know how to add a title and for that matter, how to start and stop an outline within a document, meaning if I want to do a paragraph or two of plain text and then outline a few points and then go back to a paragraph. Thanks in advance for any advice.

    You are definitely after List Style not Outline. Outline is just a way of looking at your document and moving parts of it around. You switch between that and the regular view of the document:
    Menu > View > Show/Hide Document Outline
    Lists are on the right of the toolbar. You may have to stretch the window out a little toi see it.
    Download and read the Pages09_UserGuide.pdf from under the Help menu.
