Begin with a document that has several sections with Heading 1, and 2. Add table of contents in this manner:
References -> Table of Contents
Click on the middle section titled Automatic Table 2. The table of contents is inserted and looks like this
There are no page numbers. If I figure it out, the document is only 41 KB and will be attached.
Hmmm, file type docx is not allowed. Here is a PDF of the document.
If requested, I can post the document to a personal web page.
What have I done wrong to prevent page numbers from being displayed?
Thank you for your time.

I'm a little confused, I can find the page numbers in your PDF, here is a screenshot.
Besides, if using "Automatic Table 1", does the same issue occur?
If condition permits, could you please save it as a .xml file and share with us? Please note, any privacy information, you need to modify it. Thx~

Yes, that worked, thank you.
