Word can automatically generate a Table of Contents if headings are used appropriately. This is an example of how a Table of Contents should appear when using headings. If your report is less than five pages, do not include a Table of Contents.

Continue using heading levels as appropriate for your report. Headings help organize and guide the reader; however, they can also be used to create your Table of Contents.

When typing your report, be sure that headings are on the same page as the following body text. If the heading is on a different page, adjust your spacing so they are together.

Use a simple page number on the lower right-hand corner to identify pages. Reports should be printed on one side and stapled or bound on the left. If possible, do not print on both sides of the pages as this causes the reader to flip the document several directions.
