Table of contents also shows up at the end of the book

BasicGreatGuy · 01-09-2013, 09:52 PM

I am using Sigil to create a book. Everything is looking good thus far, except for one thing. The TOC is also showing up at the end of the book.

In Calibre, I checked the box to make prevent it from generating a TOC as well.

I can't figure out how to prevent the TOC from duplicating itself at the end od my epub. Anyone have any suggestions?

Sorry. I didn't see there was a thread on this already.

Why sweat?

Just delete it in Sigil (book browser), Run Flightcrew again, to be sure it was not indexed

It will not do that unless there is an inline TOC in the book. The true ePub TOC is a separate file that is not in the book at all. Calibre has been known to place the TOC at the end of a mobi book. Did you generate a mobi file using Calibre and then convert it to ePub?

The fix is to find the inline TOC at the end of the book and simply remove it. It will likely be the last file in the list of files.

Why would you take an ePub, convert it to Mobi and then convert it back to ePub? Find the original ePub and work with that.
