Hi!

Marked is awesome! Just was what I was looking for. BUT.. When it comes to the TOC it seems like that Marked falls a bit short, or it is very unclear in the documentation.

What I want to have is just the simple functionality where page numbers are shown next to the heading in the TOC.

1. First Section 1 ...........................1
2. Second Section ........................ 2
2.1 Sub Section ............................ 4

So the page numbers are aligned to the right.
And also have the ability to check "start page count after TOC". So that if I have a frontpage, then the TOC, that way, the "actual content" starts the page count.

   That's definitely not the response I sent. Let me dig the original up and paste it :).

   Original response:

   As I've mentioned in other threads, the current PDF system has no way of
   knowing what page any item occurs on. The most it can do is determine
   the current page being converted, not its contents. Thus, adjusting the
   page to start numbering after the first page would be possible, but
   adding page numbers to the TOC is not.

   This may change if I'm able to convert the PDF export from using the
   system print features to a more custom (and manually generated) process.

   Sorry for the duplicated question, after my quick search in the forum I did not find this answer.

   Thank you for replying so quick. Which file types can keep track of page number in the TOC? Would be nice to have that info in the focus..? Because if there is a file type that can handle it, well then I could just convert that type to pdf myself..?

   Paginated PDF is the only option that even has defined pages.

   Thanks,
