Hello,

I am currently working on my internship report, and my problem is as follows: I created my automatic table of contents, but when I Ctrl+click, it doesn't take me to the correct title; instead, it takes me to the one right above it.

Could you please shed some light on this for me? I don't understand how the automatic table of contents can misalign my sections like this. The problem itself isn't too serious, but in the end, the page numbering of the automatic table of contents is also misaligned.

Thank you in advance.

Hello Jeanbaptist,

if you created your table of contents using the Heading 1, Heading 2 styles, etc., it’s possible that you assigned these styles to empty paragraphs in the body of the document above or below the headings. If that’s the case, you should reassign them the Normal style.

Did you update the table of contents by pressing F9?

That was my problem! I noticed that part of my text was not in "normal"

Thank you very much for your response!
