Adjust TOC title font, size and weight using tocloft












3














I would like to use the tocloft package to make some adjustments to my TOC. This MWE is based on the accepted answer to this question.



documentclass [a4paper,11pt,twoside]{book}

usepackage{fontspec}
%usepackage{titlesec}
defaultfontfeatures{Ligatures=TeX}
setmainfont{Book Antiqua}
setsansfont{Liberation Sans} %!Change to any font that you have on your system

usepackage[dutch,english]{babel}

usepackage{tocloft}

renewcommand{cftbeforechapskip}{baselineskip} % allow spacing after each chapter/section entry
renewcommand{contentsname}{Contents}
%addtocaptionsenglish{defcontentsname{Contents}} %! Needed for babel? https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/35903/formatting-the-title-of-the-toc
renewcommand{cftaftertoctitle}{hfill}
%renewcommand{cfttoctitlefont}{hfillLargebfseries} %!some command to make the heading large, bold and sans
renewcommand{cftbeforetoctitleskip}{-0.25in} % Title is 1in from top
renewcommand{cftaftertoctitleskip}{2.0baselineskip}% 1 double space after title
renewcommand{cfttoctitlefont}{hfill} % Blank space before title
renewcommand{cftaftertoctitle}{hfill} % Blank space after title
renewcommand{cftchapfont}{} % Can make it bold faced here; don't put a space in the {}
renewcommand{cftchapleader}{cftdotfill{cftchapdotsep}}
renewcommand{cftchapdotsep}{cftdotsep} % Puts dots after chapter entries
renewcommand{cftchappresnum}{Chapter } %
renewcommand{cftchapaftersnum}{} % Don't put a space in the {}
renewcommand{cftsecleader}{cftdotfill{cftsecdotsep}}%
renewcommand{cftchappagefont}{} %
renewcommand{cftchapnumwidth}{1in}

setcounter{tocdepth}{0}

begin{document}

frontmatter
tableofcontents

mainmatter
chapter{A really long chapter heading that will wrap around in the table of contents and end up inline with the chapter name}
section{First section}

chapter{Another chapter}
end{document}


From the documentation, I would have thought that renewcommand{cftaftertoctitle}{hfill} would have set the title to bold and large.
What am I getting wrong here?



Also, I would like to make sure that the title font and entry fonts are set to my sans font. Is there something more I have to do for that? Maybe renewcommand{cfttoctitlefont}{hfillLargebfseriessffamily}?

  • @ChristianHupfer I'm quite new to LaTeX, but this font specification is meeting my purposes. The headings are defined by setsansfont{TeX Gyre Heros} and the body of the text by setmainfont{Book Antiqua}. The bold in the body come out as bold Book Aniqua. I suspect that I need to do more reading on this?

  • Well, there is a second renewcommand{cfttoctitlefont}{hfill} (right in the middle of the bunch of cft.... redefinitions) after your first redefinition, so you're wiping out the first setting

The original code has



renewcommand{cftaftertoctitle}{hfill}
%renewcommand{cfttoctitlefont}{hfillLargebfseries} %!some command to make the heading huge and bold
renewcommand{cftbeforetoctitleskip}{-0.25in} % Title is 1in from top
renewcommand{cftaftertoctitleskip}{2.0baselineskip}% 1 double space after title
renewcommand{cfttoctitlefont}{hfill} % Blank space before title
renewcommand{cftaftertoctitle}{hfill} % Blank space after title
renewcommand{cftchapfont}{}


So any font change for the title or the chapter toc entries is not used. Setting them to hfillLargebfseriessffamily etc. will change to large, bold sans serif entries, given that the font supports those settings.



Similar modifications must be applied to cftsecfont etc, if desired.

The original code has



renewcommand{cftaftertoctitle}{hfill}
%renewcommand{cfttoctitlefont}{hfillLargebfseries} %!some command to make the heading huge and bold
renewcommand{cftbeforetoctitleskip}{-0.25in} % Title is 1in from top
renewcommand{cftaftertoctitleskip}{2.0baselineskip}% 1 double space after title
renewcommand{cfttoctitlefont}{hfill} % Blank space before title
renewcommand{cftaftertoctitle}{hfill} % Blank space after title
renewcommand{cftchapfont}{}


So any font change for the title or the chapter toc entries is not used. Setting them to hfillLargebfseriessffamily etc. will change to large, bold sans serif entries, given that the font supports those settings.



Similar modifications must be applied to cftsecfont etc, if desired.



documentclass [a4paper,11pt,twoside]{book}

usepackage{titlesec}
defaultfontfeatures{Ligatures=TeX}
setmainfont{Book Antiqua}
setsansfont{Liberation Sans} %Change to any font that you have on your system

usepackage[dutch,english]{babel}


usepackage{tocloft}

renewcommand{cftbeforechapskip}{baselineskip} % allow spacing after each chapter/section entry
