When I have entry in Table of Contents in two lines, can I have page number follow the first line not the last line without manually editing TOC.

Correct answer Peter Kahrel

To position the blue page number 21 at the end of the first line, you'd have to move it up using baseline shift. Apply a value equal to the entry's leading. You can create a character style for it, but you'd have to apply that manually. If there are many entries like that a simple script can handle that.

  1. Use tabulators between 6. and Lisa
  2. Use shift tab (code ^y instead of ^t for normal tabulator)
  3. Create a character style for page numbers
