Some of the pages in my document are numbered with Roman numerals. Because
of inconsistent capitalization in my TOC, I used the modify function of the
TOC to require all caps. But that made the Roman numeral page numbers appear
in caps, too.

Is there a way to require that the page numbers be kept in their original
format?

As a possible side note, the reason I had inconsistent capitialization
despite that all my headings are from the same style is, as far as I can
tell, is because of the way I entered each heading. So even though my
headings are all the same style, which is all caps, the TOC entries were
coming out like this:

table of contents
TABLE OF AUTHORITIES
Statement of Basis of Jurisdiction
STANDARD OF REVIEW
etc.

I tinkered around with reentering the heading info in the document, and
found that if I entered "table of contents," applied the heading style, which
made it "TABLE OF CONTENTS," and refreshed the TOC, the TOC entry would be
"table of contents."

If, however, I typed "TABLE OF CONTENTS," applied the heading style (no cap
change), and refreshed the TOC, then the TOC entry would be "TABLE OF
CONTENTS."

So, oddly to me, the TOC entries will appear as you originally typed them,
regardless of the later-applied style.

Anyway, that was the long way of explaining why I tried the "all caps"
method in the TOC modification tool -- so that I wouldn't have to go back
through and retype all my headings in caps throughout the document. (Seems
like there's no point in having the style do that for you if the TOC is going
to reflect the original typecase anyway.)

But then when I all-capped the TOC, the Roman numeral page numbers got
capped, too.

Sorry about the lengthy explanation! (Guess I could have retyped all my
headings by now!)

Any tips or tricks will be appreciated.

Thanks!

The TOC does not pick up any formatting applied by the style, only direct
formatting, so if your heading style includes all caps formatting, it is
very important to be sure that you're typing the heading properly in caps
and lowercase so it will look right in the TOC. When in doubt, I toggle the
All Caps off (and back on) as a check.

If you format the TOC entry as All Caps, there is no way to make the roman
numeral page numbers lowercase. Sorry.

Okay -- thanks, Suzanne!

I had the same problem and found a way to correct it. Highlight just the
page number in the table of contents that you don't want capitalized and go
to formatfont and unclick the All Caps button. Hope this helps!

Note, however, that they will be reset every time you update the TOC.
