Feature Request-TOC in PDF #45

Closed bsgallih12 closed 6 months ago

bsgallih12 commented 6 months ago

Hi! Is it possible to have table of contents generation possible in apaquarto-pdf? Also, is there an option in Word to put the TOC in a specific place. Right now it defaults to the first page and that's not where I want it

wjschne commented 6 months ago

I added the toc option for pdf (i.e., toc: true in the yaml). Let me know if it looks right and is in the right place. Keep in mind that APA style does not specify how a table of contents should look, and that any implementation is thus non-standard. The placement of the table of contents in docx is not something apaquarto has direct control over. I will look for a solution. In the meantime, you can always make Word insert a table of contents at a custom location after the file has been generated. Put your cursor at the desired location and then in the "References" tab click "Table of Contents."

Thanks for this! Is there a better place for potential feature requests?

bsgallih12 commented 6 months ago

After updating the extension it doesn't appear to be generating a TOC when I put that yaml option to true. I put it right under and inline with the short title option. Is there somewhere else I'm supposed to put it?

wjschne commented 6 months ago

Not sure why. It is working on my end. Can you send the file (or the yaml at least)?

bsgallih12 commented 6 months ago

I tried it again and it works this time. Also that is the perfect place to have it located. Thanks!

Great! Let me know if anything else is needed.
