The latter requires opening the document in MS Word, LibreOffice or a similar program and updating the ToC manually. (In LibreOffice, the menu command is Tools > Update > Update All; MS Word instructions are at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/update-a-table-of-contents-6c727329-d8fd-44fe-83b7-fa7fe3d8ac7a.) Updating from the command line is possible, too (at least when using LibreOffice [LO]). This involves a macro like the following (which borrows ideas from https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/how-to-automatically-update-indices-in-headless-mode/11878), saved in LO under, e.g., "Standard.Module2.UpdateAllIndexes": ``` sub UpdateAllIndexes(sDocUrl as string) dim oDocument as object dim dispatcher as object dim propExp(0) as new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue dim sNewUrl as string Dim FileProperties(1) As New com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue FileProperties(0).Name = "Hidden" FileProperties(0).Value = True if fileExists(sDocUrl) then oDocument = starDesktop.loadComponentFromUrl(convertToUrl(sDocUrl), "_blank", 0, FileProperties()) dispatcher = createUnoService("com.sun.star.frame.DispatchHelper") dispatcher.executeDispatch(oDocument.CurrentController.Frame, ".uno:UpdateAllIndexes", "", 0, Array()) GlobalScope.BasicLibraries.LoadLibrary("Tools") propExp(0).Name = "FilterName" propExp(0).Value = "MS Word 2007 XML" sNewUrl = GetFileNameWithoutExtension(sDocUrl) & "_updated.docx" oDocument.storeToURL(convertToUrl(sNewUrl), propExp()) end if end sub ``` This macro can then be run from the command line (the following works on macOS): ``` /Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/MacOS/soffice --invisible --nofirststartwizard --headless --norestore "macro:///Standard.Module2.UpdateAllIndexes(/full/path/to/file.docx)" ``` … creating a new file `/full/path/to/file_updated.docx`. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pandoc-discuss" group.

Pandoc will automatically create a table of contents. I know this because I can enable the navigation pane and see all the headers. If I don't run the --toc then I have to manually insert a table of contents and it appears. If I add the --toc it will appear automatically after I enable features.[image: toc1.JPG] On Thursday, December 9, 2021 at 10:47:39 AM UTC-6 Nick Bart wrote: > AFAIK, pandoc can only insert a placeholder for a ToC into a docx > document, but not create a full ToC itself. > > The latter requires opening the document in MS Word, LibreOffice or a > similar program and updating the ToC manually.
