Use paragraph styles and tabs to quickly create an auto table of contents in Adobe InDesign. The TOC I’m creating in this example includes chapter numbers, titles and page numbers - perfect for longer-form books and novels.

    I followed the f-height instructions, added the measure to the top margin, and it moves the baseline grid down accordingly. The text still doesnt align with the top margin as in your example and the modular gird horizontals are now misaligned with the baseline grid. Everything still behaves exactly as it did before doing the f-height adjustments - with a space between cap-height and top margin. What am I doing wrong? Cheers.

    FYI you can just set a right indent tab character instead of manually using the width measurement of the text box with a regular tab. Then if you happen to resize the text box it wont even matter as it always remains at the right side of the frame.
