Free tool to add or create a table of contents page in PDF

Add a table of contents page to your PDF, or delete/move an existing TOC. A PDF TOC management tool that helps you organize the structure of long documents at a glance.

Why a table of contents is needed in a PDF

Large PDFs can take time to navigate. A TOC page helps you grasp the structure at a glance and jump to the section you need faster.

For long, structured documents like reports, manuals, and contracts, having a TOC can significantly improve usability.

  • Quickly understand the overall flow of the document.
  • Spend less time finding the section you need.

How adding a new TOC page works

With this tool, you can create and insert a new TOC page into your PDF. Specify each entry’s title and page number to build a custom TOC that matches your document.

You can insert the generated TOC page at the beginning, after a specific page, or at the end, depending on your document.

  • Build the TOC by entering titles and page numbers.
  • Choose the insertion position freely.

How to organize an existing TOC page

Even if a PDF already has a TOC, it may be in an awkward spot or no longer needed. In that case, you can delete the TOC page or move it to another location to reorganize the document.

Since you only need to enter page numbers, you can do it quickly without complex editing software.

  • Quickly delete an existing TOC page.
  • Move the TOC page to the front or another position in the document.

When document structure matters

When sharing or submitting a PDF, a well-organized structure makes it much easier for readers to understand the content.

Using a TOC helps turn a simple file into a structured, navigable document and improves overall polish.

  • Reports or proposals for external sharing
  • Internal manuals or technical documents for reference
