Alignment of Table of Contents
I have two styles defined for my Level 1 outline in a table of contents.
They both seem identical: - based on outline numbered format, aligned at 0, no indent or tab, following with nothing - centered paragraph style - same font size and style However, in the Table of Contents, text in one of the styles gets aligned perfectly to the left margin, while the text in the other is indented a little (~1/8") and I can't figure out why. |

The extra space is actually just one character.
But it's not in the style or in the text. In one of the Styles, the number part is after some text: "TEXT #1" In the other, it's a hidden number at the beginning of the outline.

It sounds suspiciously as if Word is allowing space for that hidden outline
number. Bummer if it is. -- Suzanne S.

I have seen this in Word 2000, at least. In the table of contents, a
space is included instead of the hidden outline number. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...

This is confirmed in the original thread in the word.numbering NG.

OK. I found the "No numbering wanted on first level" thread in
microsoft.public.word.numbering. The connection between threads is not obvious, though. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...
