Highlight the line you want the TOC (Table of Contents) to go to – #1 arrow. (I’m using Windows8 and Word2010, but I’ve done this exact same thing on WindowsXP and Word2003 and older.) Go to the first chapter heading you want to link to. I usually do it in an “assembly line” fashion, as that’s faster, but I’m going to do it one “chapter” at a time so the sequence is clear.įirst, go to your manuscript document. You can use this table of contents method on an existing document or a new document, that’s not a gating factor. It’s just my method of choice because it’s what I’m used to.) (The prc method was one of the ways KDP recommended for conversion back in 2011 – but you don’t have to do it this way. The lovely Laura Clark (author LB Clark) showed me how to do this way back in 2011 when I self-published my first collection of short works with fellow author Newton Love. Personally, I go with a completely manual method, because I run all my eBooks through MobiPocket Creator and convert them to a prc before I upload to KDP – and that will for certain strip out any coding MS Word has graciously conjured up. Lynne Cantwell wrote a post about the manual method, and Dick Waters just recently wrote about a more sophisticated style. Some say you have to do it all manually, and some say you can use MS Word automation. There’s been a lot of confusion and debate over how to create a table of contents in an eBook that will survive KDP and Smashwords conversions.
