Missing entries in Table of contents

I am working on a long document (550 pages...) in InDesign CC 2014 and has created a style of table of contents in order to generate it.

But for some strange reason some entries are left behind not taken at the table of contents are generated...

The styles are applied and included in the table of contents style...

Someone has encountered this problem before?

I've seen this when the style names are duplicated with capital letter, or there are two copies in groups of different styles (or in a style group), and both have been applied to different parts of the text.

  • Entries of table of contents in the first word of the paragraphs

    Hi all. I would appreciate your help in this matter.

    Currently my page format will-

    Section

    1 subtitle. Lorem ipsem asjdlffojsdlf asldfjlsjfklsf.

    These two have a point each, with the other having automatically number each paragraph style (where the 1. + the dash).

    The Question- How can I get my OCD to show that the word 'subtitle' and is not the number, and the rest of the paragraph is?

    Also - think There are a few paragraphs that have the same style (so that each paragraph numbered), but I don't want to show them on the table of contents, as they do not have a subtitle.

    Your help is very appreciated. Thank you all.

    Ah, you're right. You cannot apply the condition directly as part of a style of characters, but you can always do it in several steps.

    First define the style of character, and in this case everything there need for attributes is a unique name. Once defined, apply it to the text a nested style or GREP style in your paragraph style from the list after the text that you want to keep the separator character before the page number. Once the generated table of contents you can use find/replace to find this style of character and to apply the condition, and then finally to hide the State in the Panel (State must be visible for search/replace to apply it).

  • 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:

  • Page indent the problem with the table of contents entries...

    I have a few entries of table of contents running on more than one line. I would like the text to be indented from the establishment right indent/margin so that text does not as far as the Page numbers on the right margin of the text TOC block extend existing. I put a tab on the right so that the page numbers are tabulated on the right edge of the frame, but if I bring you the right margin with several (currently 5 mm) indenting, I can't have a tab stop to the page outside of the right margin.

    If I insert soft-return/new line tanks they wil get lost every time I have rebuild the table of contents (there will be a lot of it!)

    Any ideas, I'm sure it happens all the time for designers of the book.

    The same way you have a withdrawal of first line, on the left there is a final withdrawal of the straight line. You can set the right two inches (for example) withdrawal and removal of stretch to neutralize two thumbs, all on a single line will go completely to the right of the frame, and any point edge requiring line breaks will break two inches to the left of the right edge of the frame, while the last line will go to the right edge.

  • Go to the source of a table of contents entry

    I know that I can use the Bookmarks panel to go to the source of the page of a table of contents entry. Is it possible to go to the source of the paragraph so that the text cursor will go to the exact paragraph which is the source of the table of contents entry?

    Jay fresno wrote:

    Petteri,

    As you suggested, I created a shortcut for the command of hyperlinks: go to Destination.

    However, my table of contents entries are not in the hyperlinks Panel. they are listed in the Bookmarks panel. So, I don't know how the shortcut will help to to get to the destination of a table of contents entry, or how the shortcut differs by selecting the same command in the context menu of the control panel.

    Give advice on how to use the method you suggested to find the destination of a table of contents entry. Once found the TOC destination, how can I know what is the exact point - is there indication, such as the slider is inserted in the paragraph?

    The table of contents entries are disconnected from their sources. They are not hyperlinks. In InDesign, there is no way to move from an entry of table of contents to its source, given that in FrameMaker

    In the layout > Table of contents, the option dialog box create bookmarks PDF does exactly that - makes bookmarks PDF.

    InDesign TOC entries and the index entries require allows you to check hyperlinks in the section Include the export PDF dialog box to create them as clickable links in the exported PDF file.

  • FM10 cannot generate the table of contents with main points

    Hello world

    I've read some useful discussions here on this issue but I still can not to be able to solve this problem of main points for my OCD.

    I already assured that the reference for all my image in my book files have the same reference table of contents of the page entry page. When I generate my OCD the main points are missing!

    I then, open the reference page for the TOC file and paste in the same entries of table of contents of my other image files and then update the book to regenerate the table of contents.

    Also, this does not solve the problem.

    Any help to fix this would be really appreciated!

    Here are some screenshots of my reference page for my OCD (below). I have ensured that this section is present for all of the image files from my book too (in their sections of the reference page for the table of contents).

  • I'd like to produce consistent spacing before and after the section headings in the table of contents

    Hello

    I am trying to create a style for the entries of table of contents for the titles of the books section. I would have a little more vertical space between these securities and two other section titles or sub-section titles, like so:

    Section 1

    Paragraph 1 a

    Paragraph 1(b)

    Section 2

    Section 3

    and so on. To do this, I can easily add a space before and after the space for the section title style. The problem comes when there are two titles with no intermediaries paragraphs, such as 2 and 3 in the example above. Then, the space between these titles is double. If I set is a nonzero value space before or after the space, but not both, then the titles won't be correctly spaced in areas where it has paragraphs either below or above a section title. Does anyone know how to get a uniform spacing?

    Thanks in advance for any advice!

    Make a third style for the case where there are two titles of section together.

  • Table of contents does not include the Section prefix

    The pages of this document in particular has a section prefix 'A', so the pages are numbered as well: a-1, A-2, A-3, etc.

    When I run a Table of contents, the table of contents is generated without the prefix, as the following section:

    Section 1... 1

    Section 2... 5

    Section 3... 9


    Is there a way, or something I'm missing from the table of contents is generated as follows:

    ... Section 1 a-1

    Section 2... A-5

    Section 3... A-9


    CS6, TIA


    Discovered the problem. When the numbering, I thought that I had actually created a section prefix. I have not, I just typed in the 'A' before the current Page marker.

  • Table of contents indented to a title that should not be indented

    Hi, Gang!

    I created a table of contents of a book and the entries of table of contents for the two pages of separation are indented, when they shouldn't be. The style of table of contents for the separator page header has no indentation and entering the reference TOC page seems correct. To make the things unknown, two entries are indented different amounts in the table of contents.

    Here is a screenshot that shows 1) the first entry in the table of contents (far back), 2) the second entry in the TOC (less indented, but always indented) and 3) style of separator on the referring page page.

    I'm puzzled.

    Does anyone have ideas why this withdrawal could happen?

    Thank you very much!

    Rocky,

    OR Ctrl-click on the text box and uncheck the BOX allow for sideheads. For reasons unknown to me, Framemaker sometimes turns this when you create a new table of contents or an Index.

  • Pages of table of contents for Mid-topic links (bookmarks)

    ROBOHELP 7

    I created a table of contents and selected "Create table of contents pages for Mid-links (bookmarks). The table of contents are created, but all of the bookmarks in the table of contents have underscores_between_every_word instead of the spaces of Word.

    Why ROBOHELP uses underscores in place and place spaces of Word for bookmarks? Is there a solution for this?

    Thank you!

    Welcome to our community, Jeff

    Bookmarks should contain underscores in order to work properly. However, it's a mystery as to why it will not replace underscores with spaces to add them to the table of contents.

    Fortunately, there is a solution. And the workaround is to manually change the entry of table of contents to make it look as you want.

    See you soon... Rick

  • 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!

  • Table of contents presentation - ok to duplicate entries?

    Hello

    How did you handle a table of contents where the duplicate entries seemed to be useful? This project of Webhelp includes many reports in several projects as shown below.

    Thanks for your thoughts.

    TABLE OF CONTENTS

    Types of reports (book) (this list reports is required by our company()

    Bird (book) project reports

    • Report 1 (page)
    • Report 2 (page)

    Fish (book) project reports

    • Report 1 (page)
    • Report 2 (page)
    • Report (page)

    Reports of project tree (book)

    • Report 1 (page)
    • Report 2 (page)

    ()further down the table of contents()

    Projects of the bird (book)

    • Find birds (page)
    • Take Notes (page)
    • Project reports Bird (book) (you can see that it would be useful in these sections of the project to duplicate report lists)
      • Report 1 (page)
      • Report 2 (page)

    Projects of the fish (book)

    etc.

    I used two techniques, as required:

    • Create snippets with all the content and use it on different subjects. This is useful in situations where topic title and name of the theme file must be different, but the content is the same. I use this for pages in different modules with different names but with the same functions.
    • Create a new table of contents and which merge in several places in the main table of contents. I use this to repeat several books with pages in several places. This allows me to use the menu once. I also use it to divide the appreciable chuncks main menu.

  • Can I hide a book or entry in the table of contents, based on a parameter?

    Hi all. I am currently using RH 11.  Is there a way in which I can hide a book or entry in the table of contents, based on a parameter passed in the URL?

    Rh10 introduced dynamic content to the user, otherwise known as categories of content-centric. In an SSL, you can create different outputs. The idea is that aid is open with a drop down menu where the user can select a category. If you look in the output folder, there is a folder for each category and you can open this assistance to a specific category. However, the user can then select other categories.

    The method is described in the HR visit to my site and the projects in the sample have a SSL showing the method.

    To open a specific category, point you to the start page for the category, the name of the category. So the TypeA category can be open from TypeA.htm.

  • ID Table of contents includes all entries

    When I create a table generated automatically the content of a book of 128 pages, entries will stop after several chapters. I checked the other chapters and all headers and chapter headings are decorated appropriately and should appear in the table of contents, and the content of the text frame simply ends before the last chapter. I had this problem ID CS 4. I had heard it was resolved with CS5, but it seems to have returned.

    I created this file by importing a Microsoft Word file (.doc) that had been cleaned and formatted using the add-on Editorium for Word in a new document, InDesign CS 5. The file also has a table that blocks the entire document when I try to adjust anything in it, but the table occurs early in the book so I don't think that is the question.

    Someone has an idea of what's going on here?

  • Right align page numbers which is found to the left of the table of contents entries

    I posted a similar question a while ago I think that substances or Peter replied, but darn if I can find the thread. At that time, they provided a script that does a GREP search, find a sentence that starts with a number and its replacement by a tab. I still have the script, but for some reason, it does not properly with my new table of contents page layout. It must insert a tab on the left page number (page numbers are to the left table of contents entries) and force the numbers right aligned so that a single-digit right page number aligns with the right edge of a two-digit page number.

    Find: ^ (\d+)
    Change to the: \t$1

    What is happening in the new table of contents, this is the script is a figure and inserts a tab to the left of the page number. Page numbers are moving to the right, but they do not align right. They are further to the right, but they themselves numbers correspond to the left.

    I'm puzzled as to why the script does not work on this new layout. Now I use CS4 and it still works on the former route. Nothing terribly different about the new layout except that the column is much closer, and there are several columns threaded in the TOC instead of a long column and the chapter titles do not have page numbers (but all other entries have page numbers.)

    We should probably set the tabulator in your paragraph style: a tab aligned right for the numbers, followed by a tab stop that is aligned to the left to the text that follows this number. (I guess that there is a tab after the number.)
