Hi all,

I'm really appreciating the Calibre software, and find it easy to use, after making my usual 3 or 4 bungled attempts to do something with it. TOC's, though, have me stymied.

I tried using auto-generate to create a TOC with entries for the chapters in a book was I converting from pdf, and the chapter headings that show in Calibre are just right for the book I'm editing.

When I load the azw3 file in my Kindle Paperwhite Next Gen, though, these chapter headings do show up, but they don't link to anything. All that shows are the names of each chapter, followed by an identical number, in this case the number 6, for every toc entry. They're not active links.

I looked in quick start guide, but didn't see additional steps I need to take to create the actual link between auto-generated chapter headings, and their locations. I was assuming that, since Calibre found the proper divisions of the text, it would, as in "auto-generate," already know where it found the respective headings breaks, and would automatically link the chapter headings to those locations.

If I have to laboriously page through the whole book to find the actual locations of these "headings" Calibre found by itself, and then link the locations to those headings manually, that would not be especially automatic or useful. Ergo, I'm bungling something somewhere.

Being brand new to all this, I'm still very impressed with this software. I can see it goes pretty deep, and I'm still just trying to wade the shallows. Assuming I missed something obvious, can any advise about how to auto-generate a functional toc?
