Hushpower · 08-24-2020, 08:08 AM

I have an interesting problem. I have inserted a TOC in my Word manuscript, but after conversion to EPUB (version 3), the TOC is missing in the Electronic TOC in various apps eg ibooks, Kindle Previewer, as well as the Calibre reader. I have converted the manuscript to PDF using Word, and the TOC is in the PDF bookmarks.

I've put a section break after "Acknowledgements", but to no avail.

It appears that Calibre is ignoring that one section. I've checked out the Help on Tables of Contents but couldn't spot anything obvious. I've done nothing special to Calibre settings.

I would be grateful if anybody has an idea about how I can get the DOCX TOC page to show in the EPUB Table of Contents, or will I have to build it manually?

Here is an combo image of the Word screen on the left, showing the Headings and then the Calibre TOC and the page itself.
