Automated ToC creation using heading styles is a key process in professional book formatting services. By applying structured heading levels (like Heading 1 for chapters), formatting experts can generate a dynamic Table of Contents that updates automatically as content changes. This method ensures accuracy and efficiency, especially for large manuscripts. Book formatting services use tools like Microsoft Word or InDesign to create both print and digital-ready ToCs, often including clickable links for eBooks and properly styled page numbers for print versions.
