The default TOC style can be found in the Text Styles panel. Leader tabs can be added as tab stops as part of the style used by the table of contents.

You can generate and present a secondary TOC within a selected section, including all subsequent qualifying headings, or just those within the section. When a TOC has been inserted for the document, secondary, section-specific TOCs can be created (for example, TOCs for each chapter of a book). If the number of TOC entries may overflow the frame, link the text frames between page 1 and 2 of your TOC, otherwise manually flow the overflowing text to the second page's frame.If the number of headings necessitates a two-page spread, you will need to make room for this at the start of the publication.

If you create a document with sufficient pages containing TOC-qualifying headings, you will need to plan out the number of TOC pages to accommodate the automatically generated TOC: The document can have as many TOCs as required, but typically a single TOC at the start of your publication is used. Affinity Publisher provides the ability to easily insert and manage a table of contents (TOC) for your document.Ī table of contents searches the document for text in specified text styles (typically headings) and reproduces that text in a list, normally annotated with page numbers.
