• Using images as chapter headings - how name you them?

  Hello. I use InDesign 5.5.

  I'm working on a project with several chapters, each chapter has a name for example Chapter first, which is visible on the page and is used in the table of contents.

  For some chapters give a bit of variety and more a look of pro, I want to use images that I created in Photoshop, which brings the name written in graphic form. So I inserted the image at the beginning of the page of the chapter, I applied the style I used for the titles of chapters of the text and converted into an ePub file. It looks great. The only problem is in the Table of contents there is no text, it works correctly if typed, but the chapter is left unnamed. Is there a method to give a chapter name in InDesign or in the HTML code?

  What happened to a character style to apply for chapter headings to "hide"? In this way, they can keep the same paragraph style.

• Question: adding prefixes to the table of contents chapter entries?

  Hello I would like to know if anyone can help understand me how to format Table of contents entries to include a prefix.

  I want to each chapter entry in my table of contents to include the prefixes of words Chapter 1, Chapter 2... etc.

  For example. Just to say that my first chapter is called "aseptic".

  Currently the aseptic 'A technical' chapter title is formatted with a paragraph style called "chapter title", and this paragraph style is included in the "Styles of Table of contents.

  So for the moment my OCD simply shows the words "One Technique aseptic" followed by the page number.

  I want that entry of table of contents to say: "Chapter 1 asepsis.

  But I don't want the words "Chapter 1" to appear on the title page of actual chapter. "»

  Also, I want to be able to add unique style to the prefixes (I guess with character styles). So that I can make the "Chapter 1"style a little differently to "Aseptic", while both appear on the same line.

  Is it possible to do? I know that I can just click on the table of contents, and then make the changes directly, but it's not ideal because if I click on "update the Table of contents" then all changes are lost. I want the added prefixes dynamically so that they remain in place even if chapter headings are changed in the future.

  Thanks for any help.

  Of course, I see no problem:

  

• Excluding the chapters of automatic chapter numbering

  

  Hi guys, first time poster!

  I need help.

  I've set up each of my chapters with automatic chapter headings (Type > text Variables > insert Variable > chapter number)

  So that part works fine.

  
  The problem I have is (as you can see in my screenshot), for my books, Chapter 1 begins in the 7th entry on the book panel. So, instead, Chapter 1 to 7, the chapter number. I'm doing this right? I can't find a solution. Must file as a table of contents and pages copyright etc is not in the compilation of the book? I want to export an entire PDF (what I know how to do) rather than having to connect a PDF file. I checked the "Document numbering Options" and under chapter numbering I don't see really an option to exclude the first entries of 4 or 5 and do the 7th in the list "Chapter 1".

  Any ideas?

  Thank you very much!

  

  The lower part of this Panel is for the chapters of the Document

  You can see you have configured automatic chapter numbers

  For Chapter 1, you should have

  You must choose whether to start chapter numbering in chapter: 1

  Then in your previous documents before

  You must configure them so that they start numbering in Chapter 1 of too - but use a different numbering style as A, B, C, etc..

  Or anything that works for you.

  Bottom line is you need to select first chapter in the book and start the numbering of Chapter 1.

• Export InDesign to Epub

  Hello

  I use InDesign CS6 once a year at the most. Recently, I received an INDD file for printing that I needed to put in place for ePub. I put in place of the paragraph and character styles and applied to the document. The chapter headings are H1 and split export. During export, select split based on tags. The problem I had was that the new xhtml files were called isbn1.xhtml, isbn2.xhtml, etc. I expect the files to be named chapter1.xhtml, chapter2.xhtml, copyright.xhtml, defined in H1 tags. I did rename the files and update the OPF and NCX files by hand. How can I get InDesign to name the files correctly when you export?

  Thanks much for any input!

  Sue

  The file names are based on your InDesign file name. So I would say you file InDesign is named isbn.indd. If you rename the InDesign file to chapter.indd, then you will be happier with the result. You can not control individual files when exporting a single InDesign file. If you split the file upwards in different InDesign files and use the book feature to put them back together, she can use these file names, but off the top of my head I don't remember if he does.

• Putting a space in my video

  Wow, the Prime Minister is much easier to use than I imagined. My first video is almost complete; I just developed it.

  A problem that I have is a lack of space between some of the paragraphs on my audio file. How I registered initially it worked fine. But I decided to insert a break between some key sections, illustrating with footage from "chapter headings".

  For example, imagine the paragraph 7, which ends with the words, "gravity, which we will learn on next."

  It is followed by a normal breathing space of one or two seconds.

  Paragraph 8 starts, "gravity is a powerful force..." »

  I want to increase the break between these two paragraphs to, say, five seconds. Ideally, I would like to do it in a way that affects not only the audio file, but all the images that I've already lined up with her. In other words, the entire video - audio and Visual will be two--now five more seconds.

  Can someone tell me how to do this?

  Thank you.

  • Choose the tool path select forward.
  • Start at the first break, you want to increase in the long term.
  • The first video (audio or video), click after the existing break. Everything to the right of the space/gap must now be selected.  Click and drag the clips selected to the right you want to increase the gap.
  • Repeat for the remaining gaps, working from left to right.

• Application of paragraph style problem and adding page breaks

  I work on the formatting of a novel in InDesign.   I met two problems.   The first of them is to apply a paragraph style to a specific paragraph.  Every time I try the paragraph in question shows a '+' after the style in question and will not apply the style.   I know that the sign '+' means that the style changes were made but I want to apply the style as it was before those changes were made and InDesign doesn't let me.

  The second problem concerns export ePub.   I inserted page breaks in some places inside the InDesign file, but when I export to ePub, the export process ignores the page breaks.  I know that I deal with text content may be but I don't want my scene headers (chapter) appears at the bottom of a page in the ePub.

  Thank you

  Command-click to erase the wrinkles too.

  Re page breaks, in the paragraph style for the scene (chapter) headings, try to tick in the paragraph Options of Style, tab Panel Options export, Split Document (ePub only).

  I can't remember, but you will need to check the document page can be Split in the EPUB - export of content Options. (see below).

  (Is there a forum for InDesign ePub).

  

• How to insert sections of column within a document?

  Hello
  I am converting a Word document to FrameMaker.

  I have to insert some long columns (sometimes more than 150 lines per section of the column) to specific places in the text.

  It might be something very easy to do, but I have not yet found!

  
  

  Basically, it is the structure of the document I want to achieve:

  

  Sections of column (in green) that begin and end within the normal text sections (as we would in Word).

  
  

  I tried to divide my basic text frame and convert some sections divided into sections of the column.

  
  

  1 chapter, divided in 5 sections:

  section 1: normal and graphic text

  section 2:2 - section columns

  Article 3: text normal and graphics

  4 of article: section 2-columns

  Article 5: normal text and graphics

  
  

  However, these sections do not automatically adjust when I paste large amounts of text in there.

  As a result, I end up having to manually adjust each divided section (stretch them vertically and push down in the following sections, because they do not move from their original place (not "section flow")).

  
  

  My questions:

  1 can I use the feature column in another way?

  2. How can I make each section adjust automatically to the amount of text it receives?

  3. How can I get my sections elapse automatically on others with text and graphics to fill?

  
  

  Thanks in advance!
  
  

  Use Across-All-Columns-and-Side-Heads for titles. Set a tab in the AutoNumber for chapter headings so that the paratext is aligned with the left edge of column Center.

  It does not seem possible to have unbalanced normal FM multi columns. You can make unbalanced with executives from individual text automatically connected on the Master Pages, but then the AAFC tricks do not work.

• All guess why numbered chapters that increment OK in FM11 not after conversion to the FM12?

  All guess why numbered chapters that increment OK in FM11 not after conversion to the FM12?

  I run FrameMaker unstructured 12 and FrameMaker 11 (for use with only the heritage project files) on a Win7 PC. The chapters in my FM11 file book for guide increment a new product user normally in FM11, but something bad, after you save the formatted FM 12 FM 11 project files.
  The book file includes:
  -Product Guide Cover.fm
  -Product GuideTOC.fm
  -Product GuideLOF.fm (list of Figures)
  -Product GuideLOT.fm (list of Tables)
  -Product GuideContent.fm (chapters 1-10) - book files dialing properties: Chapter 1 (digital)
  -Product GuideIX.fm (Index) (Chapter 11) - book files dialing properties: Chapter 2 (digital)
  
  Note: The chapter headings (e.g. 1 - Introduction, 2 - Specifications and so on) in the product GuideContent.fm and GuideIX.fm files are in the format paragraph Designer like: (the Auto-Numbering Format enabled) H: < n + > \t
  However, when I update the book, the Index seems formatted as Chapter 1 instead of Chapter 11. It seems that the conversion to FM 12 messed autodial in the product file GuideIX.fm, so that the only way to increment the value would be to manually update the building blocks in the file to H: IX.fm \t H: < n + > < n = 11 > \t (which I do not). Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

  Thank you - Randall basin

  Hi Ran,

  It's for anyone finding the subject, given that you and I come to chat with a screen sharing...

  After watching your files, the "chapter number" are really only section numbers, with all 10 of them in the same file FM. That means that really impossible to use the <$chapnum>for many of them and the index.

  In most cases, you would be still able to use the Fm 5.0 manually counting technique paragraphs title with an indicator of the series and the counter (e.g. H:), but you also have a number of positions within blocks of text not included in the stream.

  This seems to be your address update index position correctly.

  So, the only way to get the appropriate index number is to control it manually. You have at least 3 choices:

  1. Enter it manually
  2. Manually enter the AutoNumber box for the index
  3. Enter it manually in the numbering section of the dialing properties tab.

  However, all these things are extra bandages on top of your existing bandages, and I prefer to see the problems resolved instead of the 3 'Hacks' I have provided.

  For the sake of closure, please check the question if this seems to be specific for you.

  Sorry for the bad news (ish)!

• What is the best strategy for the notes for ePub with Indesign?

  Hi, I created before .epubs.

  
  

  The fundamental question is this.

  When I export > ePub and display in the Adobe digital editions, I click on the reference number and nothing happens!

  
  

  Note 1

  A couple of days, it wasn't the case.

  I think the bottom has something to do with the question.
  

  I noticed that in the middle of the ebook, notes have been turned off by one.

  In Indesign, I manually changed all reference numbers in the foot and maybe that is the problem but I do not understand why.

  
  

  I think I should have been to change the note reference number in the content, not the footer.

  questions?  Why is it automatically refresh and fix all the notes.

  
  

  I read somewhere that I have deleted by mistake a reference in the footer, but that this does not update the reference number in the content.
  

  
  

  Note 2

  I created the ebooks in the past with success - workingfootnotes, but I'm rusty. Research online and in Adobetv and youtube, I didn't come on this question or tutorial.  I'm on cloud Adobe and using Indesign cc 2014.

  
  

  Note3.

  I went about creating an ebook in 2 different ways, and I do not remember why I did it differently or what is the best strategy.

  
  

  one.

  Each chapter and each page of the preliminary pages has been his own .indd

  and somehow I ended up together in a single file.

  Issue.  This has to do with the new > book. Rather than new > document?

  
  

  b.

  I have word for each page of preliminary pages and content documents.

  I PLACED the in my Indesign Document.

  I used paragraph styes to segment the ePub and use the chapter headings in my table of contents.

  
  

  Any questions about this process?

  I want each page specific issue before appearing as a new page and each chapter to start on a new page.

  I used export > options > split document but when I view it in ADE, they seem not to be new Pages.

  
  

  question?  What strategy is best?  Why?

  
  

  I appreciate the comments.

  There are a handful of individuals who are still monitoring and responding to this forum (4 years later) and I respect your advice.
  

  Regarding notes dialing number.

  • You mention that you use InDesign book to combine the different chapters in a single EPUB export: for each of these various documents, check the following: Type > Options Document reference. What is the number of defined starting to for each of the documents? They pursue all sequentially the last issue of the previous document in the book? It could be that you skipped a number there may be?
  • Otherwise by manually changing the numbers could inadvertently "broken" anything. You cannot manually select the number in the text of the note at the bottom of the page and change the number, that will not update the number of reference in the text. Your notes would be out.
  • My recommendation, in this case, I recommend that you re - insert references, to the help Type of InDesign help > Insert reference before you redo an EPUB export.

  On document splitting in some places:

  • When you enable Document Split, what other parameter did you get the permit?
  • If you are using based on the paragraph tag Style export, then to check export of marking of paragraph style settings in the Options of paragraph Style dialog box. is 'Split 'Document' option selected? AND in the different chapters and preliminary pages, check what paragraph style is applied to the first line of text in each paragraph must be broken. Each of them must have an applied paragraph style that has the ability to 'Split' "Document enabled.

• Fix for content page styles?

  Hello

  I am a novice user of IDcs6. I formatted a book with several chapters. on the content page, I want to have two fonts of different sizes in the same paragraph. for example the chapter number and title in 1 fonts size 1 and the subtitle on the following line in the font and size 2, followed by a broader attack before the next chapter title. My original text is in Word, but ID won't import the line spacing in Word or two fonts. What Miss me? I have class in the book, but can not see relevant lesson. Is it available in the styles of character and paragraph or make separate for each line text boxes and interest? Anyone know a YouTube tutorial that might help?

  I don't use automatic TOC - six onlt entered and the fonts are different as the chapter headings. I insert the page numbers manually.

  Thanks, I'll see nested styles...

• A really weird text formatting problem

  I tried to fix a weird text problem in a new InDesign document.

  Behavior: When I hit enter at the end of a line, it gives me a jump page instead of a newline behavior. All the following text is presented on the next page.

  Installation: I have created a group of text boxes (simple script, wall of text, no images), lie on several pages and active the text stream. Then I placed the text via the import command. This is a.doc file and checked, the text it contains is behaving properly. I turned on "View hidden characters" and are all it shows end of paragraphs. Even the place where to get the odd page break, it shows only paragraph. I tried to play with the styles of character, paragraph styles, pipette, formatting of tool... nothing works. This problem appears in several chapter headings in the document, but not all.

  I've been home for hours and have exhausted all the possibilities I could think. Really need help.

  What button?

  OPERATING SYSTEM? Version of InDesign?

  Have you checked the paragraph after the break for an Option keep forcing him to start at a specific location?

• Table of contents disorder

  Hello

  Can someone help me with this problem? I have a table of contents set up here, but subtitles are displayed above instead of below chapter headings.

  I gave them the subtitles appropriate levels-Units (level1), Chapters (level2), (niveau3). So I don't know why they are appearing in the wrong order. For example, 4.1 should be good under Chapter 4 before 4.2.

  Please advise,

  Thank you!

  

  FAKE ads are built pages from the top left corner and down before going to the right, so this kind of problem is generally the result of how the paragraphs are organized on the page your void topics are more to the left than the main titles.

• How to anchor images in a fixed layout of recomposable EPUB conversion?

  I designed a book combining images with words for a print edition, and now that I'm about to launch the ebook, I found that the document must be exported as a recomposable EPUB. The INDD document is formatted for printing 6 x 9.

  There are nearly 300 images that are part of the text stream. It is a document with the following text:

  -Preliminary pages without images

  -Table of contents - created as a but do not separate text block using the Style of the Table of contents (still not put a chapter to link properly)

  -23 chapters in a chain with integrated images

  When I convert as-is recomposable, all the chapter headings and images are sent in the order, at the back of the book. In the text flow, the titles of the chapters are part of the body of text (different fonts and sizes), like images.

  The main task seems to be anchor images. A direction seemed to indicate that each image needs to be cut and the repasted in place. That makes no sense, because the images were all arranged by via to place the images.

  It is perhaps not obvious, based on the screenshot, but you do not physically move the already placed image. What might is where it is anchored and the parameters in the object > object Export Options regarding the EPUB that is produced.

  You can't automate with a strike because there is no way to specify the anchor point except by indicating it in the layout.

• TOC hierarchy problem

  Hello

  I'm having a problem with the hierarchy of a table of contents. The provision is based on paragraph styles, starting with the title of the chapter, then a subheading of chapter, followed by the paragraph titles. When I generate the table of contents, some of the positions paragraph appear before the chapter headings - see attached grabs.

  I'm not a power InDesign user, so any help is greatly appreciated!

  

  Order TOC as it is generated. Paragraph associated with red styles.

  

  How paragraph styles are arranged on the page.

  

  Example of table of contents parameters.

  Thank you Peter to confirm this information.

  Make all the text in a unique setting might solve the problem here.

  And you can add the first line indent of the text on the first 2 chassis to return to the exact spot.
