A table of contents cannot be placed directly on a Word cover page because the cover page is designed as a standalone introductory element, typically meant to display only the document title, author ketik name, and date. The table of contents, by contrast, is a navigational tool that lists sections and page numbers from the body of the document, which begins after the cover page. Therefore, the proper way to include a table of contents is to place it on a separate page immediately following the cover page.

To proceed, first open your Word file and confirm the cover page has been added. Navigate to the Insert tab, select Cover Page from the options, and pick a design compatible with your document. Once the cover page is in place, place your cursor on the very next line after the cover page. Do not type anything on the cover page itself.

Proceed to the References tab and find the Table of Contents command. Select the dropdown menu and pick from the preset options including Automatic Table 1 or Automatic Table 2. The software will analyze your document’s heading styles—Heading 1, Heading 2, and so forth—and create a dynamic list with linked page numbers.

Ensure every chapter title and subsection heading in your document uses Word’s standard heading formats. If your headings are not yet formatted, highlight each one, switch to the Home tab, and choose the correct heading style from the Styles section. This is essential for Word to recognize what should appear in the table of contents.

Once the table of contents is generated, you might need to tweak its appearance. Change the typeface, paragraph spacing, or alignment by selecting the table of contents and using the standard formatting controls on the Home ribbon. If you later add or remove sections from your document, right-click on the table of contents and choose Update Table to refresh the page numbers and entries.

Remember that the cover page is unaffected by any changes to the table of contents. This distinction maintains a polished look and adheres to widely accepted formatting standards in scholarly, corporate, and publishing contexts. The table of contents should always follow the cover page, not be embedded within it, to maintain clarity and usability for your readers.
