Hello,

Please check the documentation available on https://www.phpdocx.com/documentation/cookbook/tables-of-contents (It is possible to update the TOC automatically when opening the document? section). Due to internal restrictions, MS Word doesn't allow updating automatically a DOCX when the document is opened.

If you need to update the TOC automatically, you need to use a macro or the conversion plugin with the libreoffice or msword methods:

https://www.phpdocx.com/documentation/cookbook/tables-of-contents (Generate the TOC automatically with the conversion plugin section).

About the conversion plugin, please check the documentation available on the following pages:

https://www.phpdocx.com/documentation/conversion-plugin

https://www.phpdocx.com/api-documentation/format-conversion/convert-Word-docx-into-pdf-with-PHP

To use the conversion plugin based on libreoffice and autogenerate the TOC please check the docs folder available in the package.

Regards.
