Table of Contents with tabs
I'm having issues formatting my TOC in CS4. The headers in my document include tabs, so I can't create a paragraph style for those headers with a tab leader without it affecting my headers. What I'm trying to get is this:
1. [tab] Executive Summary [dot leader] pg number
When I create a paragraph style with a dot leader to apply to my TOC, what I end up with is this:
1. [dot leader] Executive Summary [dot leader] pg number
Does that make sense? I know there has to be an easy fix for this, but I can't quite figure it out...
Instead of a leader you can use a custom underline, and apply it as a character style. I'd do that by using a nested style --none up to 2 tabs, the undeline style through 1 tab -- as part of the style definition for the TOC lisitngs.

Linking table of contents with pages 5.0
I write some help-books for friends and the family.
I wrote down everything I need and I've created a table of contents with page numbers.
Now you can push the numbers behind the headings and you are automatically on the right page for reading the text. (In Pages document)
In pages 5.0 these things are still working fine, but....
When I export the document into a pdf, you can't push/touch the headings and the numbers behind there headings.
With the old pages, after exporting the document into a pdf, you could import it into iBooks on the iPad. In iBooks now you can touch a heading and you'll get on the right page.
That was realy helpfull, 1 click and you could read the text on which you're interested.
But with the new pages 5.0 this feature is deleted... or I do something wrong.
Could anyone of you help me for getting this feature back, if I do something wrong?Well there is a standard body for EPUB - http://idpf.org/epub
And, Apple furnishes the TEMPLATE - the Pages 09 TEMPLATE - automatically (supposedily) makes the TOC links which - then - you can export to EPUB.
Again, the problem I'm daling with is that the Kindle for the iPad, does not see the TOC. It des see it in the Kindle Softward for the Mac - which is different - for some reason. I have authored two books on Pages but Amazon converts my EPUB file to fit the Kindle device itself. -
How do I create a table of contents with a nested style paragraph?
I'm having difficulty figuring out how to generate my Table of Contents with a nested style. In this screen shot, "SPECIAL EVENTS" is considered level one and the pink circled "Fittest Firm Challenge" is level 2. Because it is a nested style, it is picking up the entire paragraph. I don't want to put in a paragraph break because that would add too much space in the magazine since there are a lot of other listings like this. I've tried reading through other people's discussions but I'm totally lost with the explanations. Is there a simple workaround or solution to this?

You're asking InDesign to do something it's not designed to do, namely, to treat a nested-style section of a paragraph as an independent paragraph. That's called a "run-in paragraph" in Adobe FrameMaker, and it's been a beloved feature there since FrameMaker was introduced in '89, about ten years before InDesign.
You can make a formal feature enhancement request here: Wishform Many InDesign features have come into being from user requests, so lend your voice, and be patient. Explain why you think a run-in paragraph feature would be useful.
Others have asked about this, and there are a number of workarounds that may or may not be suitable for you. Let's hope that some of the more-intense forum folks can help you with a useful search term for this forum, so that you can review what's been suggested and tried in the past, and what results you can expect.
In the meantime, you might consider inserting the second-level heading in an inline anchored text frame in the paragraph. It will be an independent paragraph but you can adjust appear on the same line as following paragraph. Then you can extract it for the TOC.
Here's an example:

Table of Content with page number for entire pdf
Hi
We need to merge dynamic pdf with n number of static pdf.
The output of the generated pdf has one of the page called Table Of Content with page number.
For this we have created following process
We created a form using Adobe livecycle form designer to populates input data(xml).
We created process to generate dynamic pdf .
We have static pdf's in some folder location(Eg:C:\temp)
We created xsl to generate DDX to merge Dynamic pdf with static pdf's by using an assembler operation in the Process
There are number of static specification pdf's inserted in between of dynamic pdf using logic in xsl.
We used bookmark option in xsl for creating table of content .
While invoking the process we are able to generate the correct merged pdf with some unformatted page of table of content
We can explain better in the following way where we are actually facing a challenge:
We need a table of content in the below mentioned format:
PAGE
MAIN DESCRIPTION n
ID1 NAME1 DESCRIPTION 1 m
ID2POK NAME2 DESCRIPTION 2 m
FDJKHJG
ID3 NAME3 DESCRIPTION 3 m
MAIN DESCRIPTION2 n
ID3 NAME3 DESCRIPTION 5 m
ID4 NAME4 DESCRIPTION 4 m
ID5 NAME5 DESCRIPTION 5 m
Since the pdf merging and numbering is done using ddx at runtime, page number tag is not there in xml and therefore the toc page cannot be populated at the time of form design.
The issue we are facing is that, by using ddx script we are not able to align id,name,description in table of content in proper manner. We want to wrap particular id ,name and description in their respective columns.
Currently, we are getting the below mentioned result which is not in a proper format.
PAGE
MAIN DESCRIPTION n
ID1HDSJHJDHFDJFHD NAME1FDJFHDJH DESCRIP
TION 1 m
ID2POKLFDJKHJG NAME2FDJKFJDKFJKD DESCRI
PTION 2 m
ID3 NAME3 DESCRIPTION 3 m
Note: Page numbering has been done only after merging all the pdf(Dynamic and static) using ddx instead of the adobe livecycle form designer.
Is there any solution to resolve the formatting issue or any other option to create table of content dynamically ?Hi SaCvP,
According to your description, you want to display the table of contents with page number in SSRS 2014.
In Reporting Services, the global variable PageNumber or Totalpages can be only used in the page header and page footer. In your scenario, you can create a table of content using document map, but we can’t specify the expression with PageNumber or Totalpages.
So your requirement can’t be achieved currently.
Reference:
Create a Document Map (Report Builder and SSRS)
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

How to create labeled table of Content with expand and collapse
Hi All,
Can somebody help me how to create labeled table of Content with expand and collapse as example given below:
User1
Template1
Template2
User2
+
User3
Template1
Template2
Like when we see expand (+) and collapse (-) button when we click on 'about this page' link.
Thanks
BhupendraHi,
Tou can use Table inside table to show the details this way but I'm not sure about Expand/Collapse.
Expand/Collapse are part of HGRID.
I think we can develop this functionality with little manipulation.

Creating a Kindle-friendly table of contents with pages
I'm trying to figure out how in Pages (I just recently bought it and want to use it instead of Word) to create a Kindle-friendly table of contents, so readers can click on a chapter title and go straight to that chapter, for the fiction I want to publish on Kindle. In Word I right click on Heading 1 while the chapter title is highlighted then click Update to Match Selection. Then I create a hyperlink to that chapter title to its corresponding title in the table of contents. This does not work in Pages. Do I need to use the hyperlink option in Inspector? If so I don't know how.
And does anyone know how I can create what Kindle calls "Guide Items", where Kindle users can go to from anywhere within the book?
I suppose I can write everything in Pages and then set up the table of contents and guide items in Word but it would be nice to be able to do it in Pages, thanks.

Navigating Table of Contents with Module Reviews and Knowledge Checks
I have been using 5.5 for at least 3 months without issue.
My current course is being published SCORM 1.2 to SumTotal LMS, but that is not relevant at this time.
I have 3 modules in the course (3 module reviews and sets of knowledge check questions).
Each set of knowledge check questions are 3 random questions from respective quiz pools.
The final quiz is the only one with weighted values that report to the LMS.
Problem...
When you click past the Module Review (use Module Review 2) and take the knowledge check questions, and then click that Module Review 2 page via the Table of Contents, the Next and Back buttons do not work and everything freezes.
This even happens when in preview mode in Captivate, and I don't even have to post to LMS.
Help, please!I have a specific style set up (similary to body text) to dress the table of contents at 11pt. Overset text was my thought too! but its actually just an empty paragraph with a title. I've attached an image to help explain.

No Table of Contents with MP4?
I've enabled the TOC for my Captivate project. When I publish it as a SWF, and in preview mode, I can see the TOC. However, when I publish to YouTube or as an MP4, I do not get the TOC. Is there any way to enable the TOC for MP4 or on YouTube?
thanks!Hello there,
Table of content is only for interactive content and video is not interactive, that's the reason you don't find the TOC for MP4 publish.
Thanks,

Table of Contents with Page Numbering in bi-fold brochure?
I am creating a bi-fold brochure that is a total of 10 printed pages front to back.
Is it possible to create a table of contents on the inside cover of the brochure, and have it automatically page number the other pages of the brochure, or is this only possible in the more high-end desktop publishing programs?
Thanks very much in advance for your help,
PhilPages does page numbering as does most word processing software.

Table of Contents with same image on every chapter?
When I started my book, the Table of Contents automatically took
the main image of every chapter, and added it in a smaller size to
my contents pages. Quite nice...
But now, my Table of Contents has the same image on every page.
Where did I go wrong, and - more important - can this be restored?
TIA - StefanNot sure what you did, but you can re assign connection between the chapter images and the TOC image if that connection gets lost (by deleting the place image place holder on the chapter page in the layout pane etc.)
click on chapter in layout pane and select image (or insert a new one if it was deleated) in inspetor assign it "main image"
then on the TOC page click the master image place holder and delete the image(place holder will not be deleted)
makes sure there is not an image ontop of the place holder. -
I upgraded to RH8 last week. I am working my way through the
new and interesting (sometimes perplexing) features. I have been
unable to find help with this issue by searching the forum.
I prefer to work with the table of contents (TOC) tab always
displayed for a number of reasons that enhance my productivity.
I know how to display the TOC tab., However, each time I
close and reopen the project, the tab is hidden. That is, I have to
display the TOC tab each time I open the project. This adds a
number of clicks to my day.
Is it possible to display the TOC tab automatically (at least
make it available) when the project opens.Except for some reason, it doesn't load that by default when
I open RH8. So now I'm confused...
But I'm using the trial version, so maybe the fact that I get
the serial number screen first is somehow causing the default
environment to load instead. The RH8 help says that it will load
whatever environment you were using the last time you closed RH,
which is what I expected. Give what I suggested in my previous post
a try and see if it works. -
Dear colleagues at this forum,
This is my question, i have a big PDF file, 341 pages, another 500 pages, I want to make a table of content, and I read that this Program Debenu PDF Aerialist 12 as a plug-in for Adobe Acrobat does provide this solution, which allows you to quickly build a table of content, however the program is expensive at close to five hundred dollars, i wonder why has not Acrobat Professional put this service included in the program, if one can make a solution of Table of Content and Index, this would be great. Does Acrobat have this function already or do you think that I must buy this program. Yes one can make a table of contents using word program then entering it to the PDF file and linking each line of the table of contents with the relevant page, but this would take a long time, and the solution provided by Debenu sounds like good. I am looking for your advice as i do not know much in this field.
Best regards,
BacharAcrobat does not have this built in. Normally, the table of contents is prepared at the same time as the document, perhaps in Word, which will use heading styles to do it automatically. Then this is converted to PDF. It is very unusual to do this work late with a PDF, I guess this is why it is not a core Acrobat feature.

Multiple table of contents in document
Hi there,
I'm new in FM8. I recently received a document in FM8. The structure of the document is as follows:
Every file of the document corresponds to a chapter. Each chapter contains a table of contents for its subheaders and paragraphs.
Table of contents (here are the chapter from 1 to 10, only the chapters)
Next is Chapter 1 which include a small table of contents with all subheads and paragraphs (e.g. 1.1, 1.1.1 and so on)
The same goes chapter 2 to 10.
That's not all.
Chapter 7, 8, 9 and 10 are placed in different folders coresponding with chapters title. The rest of them (chapter 1 to 6) are placed all in the same folder.
For chapters 7, 8, 9 and 10 I manage to update the second table of contents (which contains subheads and paragraphs - e.g. 1.1, 1.1.1 etc.)
In the main folder which contains rest of the chapters there are TOC files for the main Table of contents and for the subeahds and paragraohs contents corresponding to each chapter. Here I have problems with updating them because when I open the book and update it only the main TOC will be updated. The problem appears when I create PDF. Because after creating PDF when I click on a chapter name in the TOC it will bring me to the chapter I want but when I click on the TOC for subheads/paragraphs nothing happened, except for chapters 7, 8, 9 and 10.
So, to be more explicit.
When I click on chapter 7 in pdf, acrobat will send me to the chapter 7 where I find another TOC in wich if I click on subead 7.3 it will send me to the page that includes subhead 7.3. Instead if I click on chapter 4 it will bring me to the page coresponding for chapter 4 but there if I click on subhead 4.3 nothing will happen.
I will attach an example of that PDF.
The file structure looks like that:
Chapter 7 folder:
- book
- TOC file for chapter 7
- chapter 7 (same structure goes for chapter 8, 9 and 10)
Project folder
- book (it contains all files from chapter 1 to 10)
- TOC file (the main TOC)
- TOC files for chapters
- chapters' files
Thank you. Any help will be appreciated.
Excuse my poor written english.
Trully yours,
Fagaras Codrut SebastianHi,
if you got an FM book which contains separate TOCs for each chapter, it was most likely created using either
- the Systec TOOLBOX (http://www.systec-gmbh.com/en/sites/toolbox.php) or
- FrameScript (http://www.framescript.com/) with an itl script named "DocToc" (http://www.i-frame.itl.info/i-frame-base.html, website currently only available in German)
Without these solutions, you won't be able to comfortably handle a book like yours.

Acrobat X, Word 2011, and Links in Table of Contents
I have a 300+ page document in Word 2011, with a Table of Contents that has been automatically generated by Word, based off headings.
When I "print" the document using "Save as Adobe PDF" from the Print dialouge, the PDF comes up, but the links in the ToC no longer work.
I've looked online for a solution, but I am noticing two things:
1) The option to turn the ToC links into Hyperlinks is not present on the Mac version of Word (2011).
2) I opened the file in Word 2010 on a PC, and enabled the above feature, and then brought it back to my Mac and Word 2011 - the links now seem active in Word. However, when I convert it to PDF, the links still do not work in the PDF.
Is there an automated way to make the links convert, or to add them to the PDF? With 300+ pages, a Table of Contents with working links is almost essential for navigation.
Thank you!That's a defect (bug) in Adobe(Mac) that has been going on for 15 years and Adobe refuse to admit it and fix it. In Reference to Links.
The only work around is to use iWork's Pages.
The links should be active. Then Create the PDF from there The links should be live.
I've heard you can do the same thing with Preview, But haven't tried. I know Pages will.
Its no wonder that Apple won't allow Flash on the iPad. Besides not fixing Flash issues on the Mac paltform, They have a history of refusing to fix problems with Acrobat on The Mac Platform.
