I remember we had a problem with the TOC when we first prepared an .indd file for translation. Back then, we circumvented it by just deleting the TOC, re-exporting to .isc and "voilà!" everything worked just fine. Re-inserting the TOC is just a few mouse clicks, so the client had no problem with that.
