Mini Table of contents throughout manual

• Mini-table of contents for several chapters

  I'm writing a course book, which I've added learning objectives in each chapter. I would like to automatically summarize these objectives in the preface, to learning as additional OCD (or clue?).

  As far as I know, that a mini-table of contents are only capable of generating content on the chapter (file), it is placed in.

  Is it possible for me to generate this list of objectives, apart from manually add each goal as a cross reference?

  Thank you!

  Thanks, I did something similar to your response:

  1. Generate a list of paragraphs (containing only objective paragraphs)
  2. Have chapter that import as a medallion of text (that can be updated with a single click).

• Table of contents problem/Question

  Hi everyone, I hope I can put my question precisely in words.

  I'm working on a product catalog 450 page in Indesign CS5 for mac.  The catalogue includes 7 main sections, in which there are several small sections. I need to create a table of contents for these small sections, however, my question is this;  my table of contents is based on product names I apply a paragraph style, but, also included on the same line as the name of the product, are several small icons.  I used the library function for the implementation of these icons.  I put my cursor where I wanted the icons to be, went to the library, do a right-click on the icon I wanted to and the article place selected.  I found this to be the easiest way since there were about 1500 products in the catalog.  So, my question is, now that I'm creating a mini-table of contents for these many sections, icons are included in my table of contents, that I don't want.  I can go and manually delete each icon, but I think there must be a quicker way.  I thought maybe a grep style, but may not know how to do this job.

  Any help would be appreciated!  It will take some time to remove each of the people.  I hope I described it accurately; Please do not hesitate to ask questions if there is not clear.

  Thank you very much!

  After you create the table of contents, goto edit: click EDIT in find/replace: text: then arrow / markers / anchored object (sorry trying to remember from memory)

• How can I include a table of contents header in a second table of contents?

  I created a main table of contents for my Indesign CC document with all paragraphs which have "Heading 1" paragraph to be their style includes. That work perfectly well... with one exception: the topic of other TOCs. I use more than one table of contents, for example one for an index of the tables. These have their title defined yo "Heading 1" style, but the main table of contents simply do not include them even if I put it to include everything with "title 1" it cuts style. "." How to fix this?

  For reasons I don't quite understand (but probably have to do with not to create a recursive loop problem that happen if you try to use the same style in the current TOC), ID don't look in the stories of the TOC for the paragraphs to be included in a table of contents. You must either add a placeholder point nonprinting pick it up on the page to a table of contents or manually insert the text in a table of contents generated.

• Manual large editions with sensitive html setting. Is there a way to determine how the entries appear in the table of contents?

  I publish major textbooks with sensitive html setting. Is there a way to determine how the entries appear in the table of contents? If I publish a small section of the manual then 2nd level entries appear as eruptions under the chapter name, but if I publish the manual in its entirety then level 2 headings are not at all. I would like them to appear as the eruptions in the table of contents, but I need to publish the manual as a whole in order to keep the cross references. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

  I think that this would make clearer - and it would skip and tables of contents of books under.

• Is Acrobat Pro just for us. We have an employee handbook that needs editing. A part is current pdf, some of an earlier version. You want to get all in a manual, the table of contents automatically adjust and links to specific pages of the table of content

  Is Acrobat Pro just for us. We have an employee handbook that needs editing. A part is current pdf, some of an earlier version. You want to get all in a manual, the table of contents automatically adjust and links to specific pages of the table of contents.

  Acrobat Pro is certainly not the right tool for editing. You want to change the manual using the source - MS Word files for example. Once you have the full changes including OCD work as you want, Acrobat Pro is the tool to convert the source document to PDF format, and ensure the accessibility requirements of 508 - and preferably ISO 14289 (PDF/UA) - are met.

• Duplicate sections throughout the table of contents after generating the HTML5 multiscreen output

  Use: RoboHelp 10, version 10.0.0.287

  Steps to reproduce the problem:

  1. click on file > create > main layout (Multiscreen_HTML5)

  2 al ' Generate window click on [Save and Generate]

  3. wait

  4. click on [view results]

  5 results show swathes of the table of contents reproduced in other sections.  10 more times to repeat the generation before that the entire table of contents points are correct and I can publish.  This is not preventing me from doing the job, but it's certainly a time killer.

  Background: I inherited a working version.  I did not create it.  I have more knowledge of the HTML language, but I'm not a developer.  I didn't upgrade beyond RH10 option.  I have studied this many times, but have not been able to find a solution.  The only other thing I've seen sometimes are error messages related to the toctree.js file, but I still don't understand those.  Even when I have not, this past yet, but I have included this error just in case it may be related, although I suspect that it is a separate issue.  I don't currently have the line in the js file because this sample is old and I have not seen the question at least a month.

  Other Notes: I've seen a few posts on a similar question in the printed version, but, I do not have a printed version.  I don't know if that makes a difference, and do I know if anyone in the past that put in place or even where to go to watch.

  

  

  Try to move the project to somewhere that the path is not so long and generate a new folder.

• Question about subjects, books and tables of contents

  I have a question about the subjects, books and tocs. I have a project that someone else created, and my task is to create a new topic and add it to the table of contents. I created the topic, but when I generate CHM project it does not appear in the table of contents. I tried to update the table of contents. What I think (I guess) could be the problem, is the 'links to the topics', when I see the links to the topics in other areas (old) they seem to have a link to the main book, but the new one is not mine. Could you help me? Thank you!!!

  It seems that you have a manual table of contents page, rather than using the table of contents of CHM.

  The toc.htm topic that you see in your list of topics is probably where you will need to add your new topic.

  If the table of contents was already populated when you inherited the project, I suspect the previous author was using it just to keep track of the topics they had added manually to the topic toc.htm - added the CHM topic in summary you did mark the column of the table of contents in the list of topics like '' Yes. '' then add to the toc.htm manual is not. Hope that makes sense.

  P.S. Just guess that it is installing what I can see in the screenshot. It is quite unusual, so I hope I'm right.

• Generate the table of contents with chapter markers?

  It has been a while since I had to install and create a table of contents for a long document of single file, but I'm sure that I created TOCs in this way in the past. Then, why the text in the Section markers will appear in the table of contents? It is even possible to generate a table of contents that contains text of article marker?

  I use InDesign CS5 in Windows. I have a file single document I'm trying to generate a table of contents for. I designed a 16-page manual in an inDesign file that includes a cover page, table of contents page and seven "chapters."

  I created a separate section for each 'chapter' and used Chapter markers in the top of the page master for chapter names. It's something I did in the past of syntactically long documents containing several chapters.

  I put the first page of each 'chapter' as a new Section on the Pages panel. In numbering and Section Options for each page, I checked the Section getting started, Automatic Page numbering, the Style of Page numbering: 1,2,3,4... and in Section marker: I put the name of 'chapter' in the text box.

  

  I've set up paragraph and character Styles and has used throughout my document. When I put in place the table of contents I created everything correctly, including a heading style that I used for all the sub lines in my file and my style of Section marker for chapter names.

  

  When I insert the table of contents, generate headers sub with their page numbers, but the titles of the chapters which are chapter markers do not generate. Am I missing something or is it still possible to enter the text of chapter markers in a table of contents? I'm sure that he's worked in the past. Can anyone offer a solution for this?

  Thank you

  Looks like the markers section present only in the table of contents if they are on a document page. Try manually to the substitution of the frame.

• Problem with proper alignment of the character in my table of contents Styles

  Hi all!

  I'm working on my first book project and I have read so many threads here for the last hour, but I either just don't understand, or I have not found that I still had, so I apologize already where this question has been answered before...

  OK, so... I'm building my OCD and have set up corresponding TOC styles with paragraph styles used throughout the book.

  what I want is for the page number must appear before the entrance. so for the page number I put in place its own table of contents page number character style.

  NOW

  the page number appears left aligned. I checked the palette styles of character and here I can not put a tab for the page number appear stalled right...

  How can I get this page number to be propped right? and THEN, how can I specify the distance between the page number and the entry? There is "tab" mentioned in the Table of contents dialog box to specify the distance between the page number and the entry, but then I have to go manually every time something changes? that it is impossible? I saw in the palette paragraphy styles there is a section of tab... tried to grasp the tabs so the number seems to be right aligned and the distance to the entry, but nothing happened, then the number is glued directly to the entrance once the table of contents are generated...

  What's a sense?

  attach a screenshot in an attempt to clarify the question...

  hope you can help out me.

  Thank you very much in advance!

  see you soon

  I played with this for almost an hour, and as much as I know there is no way to adjust the alignment of the page numbers in the table of contents, suggesting off the beaten path.

  After testing a whole bunch of stuff that didn't work, I came up with the somewhat strange solution, but not impossible to simply change the table of contents manually to insert the required number of spaces listed in each entry. It takes the police that you use for numbers has Lining Figures, and you specify that, in the style, but a solution of script (and I don't know if it is possible) which are the best that I can offer. To set the distance of the number on the text, use a tab and set the position as part of the style.

• text too close to page number in the table of contents

  Most of the time I can take care of unattractive line breaks in the table of contents by putting in the nonbreaking spaces in a paragraph.

  However, sometimes I have a situation where a table of contents entry text is too close to the page number right. The text is so close to the page number as in some not case of presentation of points of the leader, or show only one or two points of leader.

  Writing and its adjustment page number on one line, then putting in the nonbreaking spaces won't solve the problem. I could put in a soft return (SHIFT-ENTER) in the table of contents entry to force a line break, but it is not effective because I have to put in the soft return manually every time the table of contents are updated.

  If someone has a tip on how to effectively manage this problem, I would like to know about it.

  Jay,

  Some time ago, someone posted a solution to make the line nice breaks in the index entries. It's setting values of the minimum and maximum word spacing in the paragraph Designer. The values validated it did not worked for me, so I played a little with it and use the following syntax:

  In the paragraph format for table of contents entry, set the maximum word spacing of 325% and oral minimum spacing to 275% and the optimal spacing to 100%. Note the fact that the optimum is NOT between the minimum and maximum values. I don't know the algorithm that Frame uses to decide where the line break, but I'm guessing he first decides to break the line to fill the max and min requires, breaks the line, but changes the spacing back 100%, which is what you want then, in other words, we don't want large spaces.

  The causes of values above a line break about an inch or two to the right margin. If you want to close, try 225 percent and 175 percent. I found that over these two issues of line breaks occur further from the right margin.

  This method does not have to enter the manual line breaks and gives a nice line break, even for those rows that could fit on a single line.

  Good luck

• Table of contents for several sheet file...?

  It is possible to:

  1. Create a Table of contents listing all sheets in a file?
  2. Have these hyperlink worksheet titles to the sheets themselves?

  I build what will eventually be a fairly large file (read: 75 + leaves). Rather than scrolling all the leaves one by one by one manually to locate the correct table, it would be useful to have a table of contents or an Index that lists the in order... Ideally, allowing the connection of hypertext link to the leaves they reference. (I swear that this was part of a way-back-when number...)

  Instead, is it possible to auto-trier worksheets in alphabetical order? He would not give me the project view as a table of contents or an Index of 35,000 feet, but at least it would be a little easier to find what it takes.

  Looking forward to sharing the wisdom...

  HI stephanie,.

  The numbers 2 (' 09) and 3 support not the hyperlinks to locations within the current document. Both take in charge of hyperlinks that open a Web page in your default browser or which will open and send a new e-mail message.

  Command-F can be your friend here.

  Place an array of single cell on each sheet (or use a cell on the existing table). Enter a short text string that identifies the table or sheet. Each string must be unique in the document.

  To access the card containing one of the following strings:

  Press Control + F to open the Find dialog.

  Enough chain to identify the worksheet type.

  Number will draw this roadmap forward as soon as it can determine which table contains the cell containing this string.

  Tested with four sheets containing:

  able, baker, charlie and delta

  With this limit together (and any other tables in the document - quite an artificial situation!), type c or d was enough to bring me to sheet 3 or 4, sheets 1 and 2 required two letters (ab or ba) to identify the good sheet and bring it forward.

  

  

  With a document containing several tables (and more leaves), create (and remembering) a separate channel for each becomes more complicated.

  You can place a second copy of each in a table of Index or table of contents on a separate sheet. From the index table,

  Copy the entry for the table/worksheet you want to go.

  Open the dialog to find (command-V)

  Paste the entry in the search box. (What it will find and highlight the entry that you have copied to the index table)

  Click on the > button on the dialog to find the occurrence FOLLOWING this string (on your target table.

  Kind regards

• How can I display the table of contents for the iPod Touch to 6

  When I opened first of all iPod Touch Users' Guide, I used the table of contents (TOC) to locate and access sections in the manual. But, after looking through the manual for awhile, I tried to return to the table of contents, but it wasn't there! I have tried various things to see if the table of contents are being hidden, or if in some way, it has been deleted. Anyone can shed light on this mysterious event?

  What is the version of iBooks that you speak? There is an online version here: https://help.apple.com/ipod-touch/9/ Aha, I see the table of contents on the left disappears if you zoom before or make the narrow window and reappears if zoom you out or make it larger.

• How to make a table of contents reflects the document formatting?

  I use a table of contents for a long document. In the document, some special words - the titles of the texts that I write about - italic. But when they appear in the Table of contents, they are not. Part of the table of contents and problematic subheadings are shown in the attached images. I can do all the headings / subheadings italics, but I don't seem to be able to reformat the individual words, I can find no option for the table of contents to reflect the formatting of the titles themselves. I'm heading to the last resort of manually typing all the senses...

  

  V4.3 Pages ' 09, or Pages v5.6.1, will resume the paragraph/character in the body of the document style attributes in the generated TOC. To a certain extent, you can customize the table of contents thereafter.

• in the Table of contents, my photos are not displayed, can you tell me what I am doing wrong?

  I am writing an iBook on a Mac Book Pro of the retina, and when I go to see the table of contents it shows no picture... so I do something wrong, or not do something, everyone knows what this might be? Here you have a Table of contents on iBook author image. It is said that there are 5 chapters and Chapter 3 marking and it should show the main image of this chapter and down a row of thumbnails of all pages of this chapter. Nothing shows... I'd appreciate any info to solve this problem. Thank you.

  

  Quack quack.

  the thumbnails do not appear when you look at the table of contents to the author of the ib.  You must create the .ibooks file, do a preview for mac, and open it with the ibooks software and you will see knock thumbnails view or put your book on a iPad and if switch you to the comparable iPad display, thumbnails will be visible there.

  In addition, you must file an image file in the placeholder, which will be visible on each index type toc page, yes a picture shown throughout the book.

  good luck with your book and I hope you sell 1 million copies.
