Enhance document navigation with headings and TOC

Enhance document navigation with headings and TOC

Hey Zoho Writer Community!

We're back with some useful features in Zoho Writer that can simplify your document creation and navigation process. Let's dive right in!

Check out our video on how to make the most of Zoho Writer's heading and table of contents features



Headings

Consistent formatting with headings enhances both the visual appeal and readability of your documents. They also make navigation a breeze. Imagine a software manual with clear sections (Heading 1) and subsections (Heading 2, 3, etc.). Headings establish a hierarchy that guides readers through your content effortlessly.

Table of contents (TOC)

With Zoho Writer you can generate a table of contents based on your headings in a single click. This TOC allows readers to jump directly to relevant sections, saving them time and making your content easier to access. Learn how to insert a TOC.

Whether you're drafting manuals, reports, or proposals, these features help you to create and navigate documents efficiently.

Try them out and let us know your thoughts. Write to us at support@zohowriter.com or support@eu.zohowriter.com if you need any assistance.

Happy Writing!
