Removing Section pages & updating Table of Contents


If you prefer not to see the section names in the bundle, and to start the page numbering from the first document in a bundle, you can follow the steps below.

You can follow these steps after you have generated a bundle as a Word document and opened the bundle document in Word.
  • First, you can follow the steps here to delete the section page/s. 

  • Then, you can follow the steps here to start page numbering on Page 3 by skipping the Title and Index pages. 

  • Finally, once your page numbers show as you need them and all section pages are deleted, click 'Update table' on the References tab in Word. Make sure you select 'Update page numbers only'. Your bundle should now look correctly as in example below, and page 1 is the first document.
      

Warning
Make sure to always choose 'Update page numbers only' so you don't lose the document titles from the Table of Contents.

Idea
You can rename the document titles by just typing the name as needed in the Table of Contents.
