Question

Table of Contents heading missing from TOC page

Hi,

I am in the process of finalizing a TOC for a book I'm working on. The TOC is complete but the Table of Contents header at the top of the page is missing. The TOC Head entry is available when I view Master pages. How do I get that TOC Head to appear on the TOC page? 

 

Thank you for any help.

Elizabeth

    Move the Heading to the very top of first Body page of the ToC, ahead of the generated content. This leading text is left untouched during ToC re-gen.

    Anything you enter in a tagged master page text frame will not appear on the body pages. To see if your Table of Conents header is in a tagged text frame, click in the text on the master page and look at the lower left corner of the document window. If there is a Flow name, then this content won't appear on the body pages.

    Hi Elizabeth,

     

    Is this TOC head on your master page a variable? It could be that this variable does not have any content.

    And of course; Do you have assigned the correct master page?

     

    Best regards, Winfried
