InDesign will still recognize this text as having that style even if it looks completely different. Note: you can change the formatting of text with a Paragraph Style applied to it, and a ‘+’ sign will appear next to the style. Additionally, InDesign now knows that text is a ‘Section Title’ and can look up which page it is on. The text will be formatted in the same way as the text that I originally created the style from. Now, if I select other text in the document and click ‘Section Title’ in the Paragraph Styles menu, that style will be applied. I double clicked ‘Paragraph Style 1’ to rename it ‘Section Title.’ I created a new Paragraph Style by highlighting my section title, and clicking the ‘New Style’ button in the bottom right corner of the Paragraph Styles menu. Open the Paragraph Styles menu by going to Window > Styles > Paragraph Styles. InDesign creates a table of contents using Paragraph Styles, which are formatting templates for text and also allow InDesign to keep track of where text is in the document. Setting up your document with Paragraph Styles
If you’re working on a long, complex document, it’s possible to set up your document so that InDesign finds and enters your section titles and page numbers for you. Automatically generating your table of contents Scroll to the next section of this tutorial to learn how to format and add dot leaders (the “…” between section titles and page numbers in a table of contents). Type out the page number next to the section title with just a space in between. Manually entering your informationįor short documents, such as this example, it’s easiest to just type in your chapter or section titles and scroll through your document to find the page number (pro tip – scroll through the ‘Pages’ navigation pane to see the page number rather than scrolling through your document).
Our table of contents will list the sections and sub-sections along with the page numbers they appear on. There are two ways you can get this information: 1. The rest of the pages are front and back covers, the insides of the covers, and acknowledgements. Notice that Section Two, “Cats Are So Fluffy,” also has three sub-sections, “Short Fluffy,” “Medium Fluffy,” and “Long Fluffy.” At the front I’ve set aside a blank page for the table of contents. In this tutorial, we’re going to learn how to make a table of contents (sometimes abbreviated to ToC) for this example document, a booklet about cats: Adobe InDesign is a great tool for layout and design of multi-page documents.
