    Default Table of contents numbering and period issue

    Hi,

    The page numbers are justified right in my TOC. My problem is the numbers are listed before the periods. How do I fix this problem? For example page 10, looks like: 10... but I want it to look like: ...10

    Thanks,

    Fred

    Hi Fred,

    You need to use the leading and check the preferences in your style for the TOC entries.

    In the "Between entry and number" field you should have ^t. ^t means you will have a tab after the entry and that's why you need to put a leader that has a period in it. A leader defined in such a way will force dots to appear between the entry and the numbers.

    Your new entries should look something like:

    My Entry............42
    My Entry............67

    and so on.
