I am trying to create my table of contents, but I want the text "Appendices" to have the same font size as a part (Investigation). How can I increase the font size? Also, I have tried addcontentsline{toc}{part}{Appendices}, but that was entitled "Investigation Appendicies" (which...fail...), and I couldn't seem to change the cftpartpresnum at that point. Here is my MWE:

documentclass[openany]{book}

usepackage[margin=1in, headheight=4em]{geometry}

geometry{letterpaper}                  % ... or a4paper or a5paper or ... 



usepackage{calc}



%% Rename "Part" to "Investigation" and append that label to the table of 

%% contents  

renewcommand{partname}{Investigation}

renewcommand{chaptername}{Investigation Roman{part} --- Part}

renewcommand{thepart}{Roman{part}:}

makeatletter@addtoreset{chapter}{part}makeatother%

usepackage{tocloft}

renewcommand{cftpartpresnum}{Investigation }

letcftoldpartfontcftpartfont

renewcommand{cftpartfont}{cftoldpartfontcftpartpresnum}

renewcommand{cftpartaftersnumb}{:}

setlength{cftpartnumwidth}{widthof{textbf{Investigation textrm{IV}:}}}

renewcommand{cftchappresnum}{Part}

renewcommand{cftchapaftersnum}{ -- }

setlength{cftchapnumwidth}{widthof{textbf{Part B --}}}



setcounter{tocdepth}{0}



%% Change formatting of the part so that things can be on the same page

usepackage{titlesec}



titleclass{part}{top} % make part like a chapter

titleformat{part}[display]{centeringnormalfontHugebfseries}{partname thepart}{0pt}{huge}



usepackage[toc,page,title]{appendix}





%% Remove headers from blank pages

usepackage{emptypage}



begin{document}

frontmatter

tableofcontents

chapter*{My maddness}

What can I say, I'm on a Tolkien kick.



mainmatter

part{The Hobbit}



chapter{Bilbo Baggins}

chapter{Thorin, Oin, Gloin, and the nine}

chapter{The dragon under the mountain}



part{The fellowship of the Ring}

chapter{Frodo}

chapter{Sam}

chapter{Merry}

chapter{Pippin}



part{The two towers}

chapter{Gandalf the White}

chapter{Gimli}

chapter{Legolas}



part{Return of the King}

chapter{Aragorn}

chapter{Mount Doom}

chapter{Who cares?}





appendix



begin{appendices}

  chapter{Concerning Hobbits}

  chapter{Maps}

end{appendices}



end{document}

Also, it would be good if the "Part" disappeared before the A and B in the appendix labels. But one problem at a time.

I found an answer to this question and applied it here.

• I removed the appendix package


• 
  

  I added the redefinition of the appendix macro below

  
  
  

  makeatletter
  
  g@addto@macroappendix{%
  
    addtocontents{toc}{%
  
       protectrenewcommand{protectcftpartpresnum}{}%
  
       protectrenewcommand{protectcftchappresnum}{appendixnamespace}%
  
       protectsetlength{protectcftchapnumwidth}{widthof{textbf{Appendix B --}}}
  
    }%
  
  }
  
  makeatother
  
  

  
  

Then I just added this to the end:

appendix

addcontentsline{toc}{part}{Appendices}

chapter{Concerning Hobbits}

chapter{Maps}



end{document}
