I ask this because I'm currently trying to format something in Kindle Create. Most of my experience is in formatting print.My problem: Kindle Create's auto-generated Table of Contents is pretty bad from a print formatter's perspective. At the same time, it's the only way I can get a clickable ToC inside the book itself.The question I have is... is this necessary? I have heard rumours that so long as you set your headings to "Page Title" or "Chapter Title" appropriately, readers have an external ToC or pleasant "Go To" section that helps them navigate. Even if the book itself doesn't contain a ToC at all.Is that true?I'd much rather include the ToC I made for the print version, but sadly no matter what I do Kindle Create makes it unclickable.And I'd rather not rely on an unclickable ToC for an ebook if there isn't, in fact, an automatic external ToC or "Go To" section that e-readers automatically generate based on my Page Title/Chapter Title flags.Any help/clarity will be appreciated. I do want to ensure I create a good reader experience. I just sadly have no way to check my own work in this case, so I'd rather get insights from people who read ebooks often. via /r/ebooks https://ift.tt/Hj6R8g4
