Word - Navigation Panel - Headings

Copper Contributor

1.)  If a document is too long, is that the reason why the first 250 pages of a 400 page document show the Headings, but because the Navigation Pane is too short, the headings in pages 251-400 won't show up in the Navigation Pane. 

 

2.)  If the 400 page document is broken into two separate documents all with headings, why won't the second document (pages 251-400 that have headings -- why don't the headings in the second document show up in the Navigation Pane in the second Document?  Thank you

Hi Mark,

I suspect that the problem is that the Navigation Pane is not seeing your headings as headings.

See my article: Headings that do not show up in the Navigation Pane or in a Table of Contents (or in Cross-Reference.... This has to do with the paragraph style applied to a heading having an Outline level.

By the way, are you on a Windows platform or a Mac platform?
