Select the checkboxes next to the paragraph styles whose text you want to appear

in the table of contents. For example, if you want all the first-level headings and

used for first-level headings and subheadings.

Select the checkbox in the

numbers to appear with
each entry.

styles whose text you

want to appear in the

table of contents.

Select to make all page numbers hyperlinks.

If the styles you select are not used anywhere in the document, you see a message
that your table of contents is empty when you create the table of contents. If you
select styles that are used very frequently in the document, your table of contents
might be longer than you want.

contents, click Sections in the toolbar, and then choose “Table of Contents.”

Styling a Table of Contents

You can change the look of text in the table of contents as you would any other text in
a word processing document. You can also add a leader line between an entry and its
associated page number, and you can create new TOC styles.
