Editing Word 2013 Table of Content

Table of contents is build upon styles that are present in the text. Usually direct modification on a word or two are preserved even if the style for a paragraph changes.

This phenomena can also be spotted when building table of contents for images or graphs. If your table of contents has some “Graph 1” bold and, lets say, “Graph 2” not bold, but in the text lower they are both bold, then styles kicked in. As you can see in the picture – “Slika 2” has a style of Heading 1 and it appears different from “Slike 1” which has style Caption. You should go to the caption text of “Graph 2”, mark the whole line and remove all styles. (Thus removing Heading 1)

Then apply the changes you wish to have in the table of contents.

Refreshing the ToC should pick up your custom formatting.

ps: You should set up ToC properties when creating them. Afterwards modifications like line spacing or paragraph spacing cannot me made.
