Writer’s table of contents feature lets you build an automated table of contents from the headings in your document. Before you start, make sure that the headings are styled consistently. For example, you can use the Heading 1 style for chapter titles and the Heading 2 and Heading 3 styles for chapter subheadings.

This section shows you how to:

• Create a table of contents quickly, using the defaults.
• Customize a table of contents.

You can use custom styles for the different levels in the table of contents as well. This document uses the default styles for simplicity.
