Table of contents flowing to multiple pages

Is there a way to get the table of contents flowing to several pages on the fly?

I have a project where the Table of contents will be certainly several pages, but the content will be different per pound, so I don't know how many pages the TOC will be until the work is set up at the end.  Since the merger is done programmatically, the best thing would be to set up the FAKE text object if flow dynamically as he had a variable in it, but since it doesn't have a normal variable, the possibility to sell the document does not appear.  For any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for looking,

J

I had problems with several tables of contents of page before

I had my OCD set up as a master page with linked text boxes

Meetings with only a text frame (IE table of contents page), there is no problem

But when OCD runs through two - y

Solution has been to remove the second image - update the table of contents and then create a new text related to the first frame

the content must flow in

It may be useful

    I am using MS word 2010 to create the model (*.rtf file).

    The report displays the details of all the products used by the customer. Report 1 product per page. All products have the same model.

    What I want is to create an Index page, which displays the product name and the page number of the report in which it is generated.

    For example. Client Papa Johns uses 10 products. The generated report will contain details below: 1st Page-> Front Page containing details of the customer base.

    2nd Page-> Index page that contains product names and page numbers

    3rd page: 1 product details

    4th page: Details of the product 2.

    .

    .

    and so on.

    INDEX

    Product name Page No.

    Anchovies 4
    Apple at the top of 5
    Bacon 6
    7 barbecue sauce
    Barbecue Sauce2 8
    9 the chicken filling
    Dough 10

    Please note that the product number will be variable (it can increase or decrease), so there may be a case when the index page takes more than 1 or 2 pages just to print the names of products and their respective numbers.

    Thanks for the help in advance.

    All,

    Managed to find the error. I used the option field to insert available in word. Copy the tag instead of the field option and then build the table of contents.

  • Table of contents: not positioned wrong page numbers

    When I create my "list of Figures" (A Table of contents item type) I get ugly results such as (p83 and p84):

    Screen Shot 2014-02-05 at 5 February 14.21.49.png

    and (p105)

    Screen Shot 2014-02-05 at 5 February 14.22.13.png

    There is not always a dashed line and page numbers are not always end on the right. Is there a way I can influence it?

    I found a solution, less elegant, but it seemed to work in my little test. Add a GREP style to your paragraph to add a character without pause style tab and the number. (This corrects the independent left-aligned numbers).

    Then do a search and repalce to add a space before the tabs. The result is far from ideal, because it leaves a space between the text and the leader, but it seems to solve the problems of end of line too tight.

  • Table of contents with wrong number pages

    Hello world
    I m trying to generate a rtf with a table of contents on its model.
    My problem is that the numbers that refer to the page numbers are all 0.

    In the model this page refered by numbers are ok.

    I ve seen this unanswered question in some other threads but I hope someone can help me.

    Thank you

    Don't get any ideas.
    I don't know that it needs to be updated manually once you generate the RTF by right click, TOC and update.

  • Page numbering and the Table of contents

    I have a book containing 23 document files. Document files contain the page numbers in the footer.

    One of the document file is a generated table of contents (TOC). Unfortunately, the generated page

    the number in the table of contents do not match the numbering of the pages in the files. Here are the details:

    • The title page, in a file by itself, is not numbered
    • The frontmatter, distributed in five cases use lowercase Roman (i - xvi)
    • The body of the text in the remaining 17 files is digital (1-243)
    • The generated TOC uses cardinal numbers of the book as a whole. For example,.
      Chapter I is numbered correctly in the footer from page 1. However, he is listed in the table of contents
      as starting on page 19, because this is the file real 19th in the book. I put the document numbering
      This file from 1 properties and properties of Page numbering for the book as a whole to
      be "continue."
    • The style of the table of contents entries is correct. In other words, the frontmatter uses a tiny Roman and the
      chapters use Numeric

    I tried to regenerate the table of contents, but this did not help.

    Does anyone have suggestions on what is the way prescribed to do?

    OK, I continued to read and this is what I found:

    Set the numbering style in the document, and not in the book that we told you. Format > Document > numbering. Choose Arabic or digital. Repeat for the various chapters.

    Save and close the chapters. In the book file, click with the right button on each chapter and choose Configure XXX. This is where tell you the book to continue the page numbering or restart at the 1.

    Once this is done, update your address. From there, if there are issues, we rely on the logic of the Fm we use every day, and each of us can help you solve.

  • What is the best way to list the numbers of page and page number ranges in my table of contents?

    I use the feature book to create a catalog.

    Thus, it consists of several files.

    Each file is a 'different' Section that Indesign is concerned.

    Here's my table of contents now:

    toc.PNG

    All page numbers are static.

    Each rounded rectangle, color corresponds to a section (which is a separate file). Some sections have subsections, some don't.

    The catalog changes over time, I would like that all page numbers in the table of contents of auto-update. Less work and less chance of human error.

    I noticed the text variable and tools of text to anchor, but so far have failed.

    What do you recommend?

    I decided to use text Variables.

    -J' I first define the header of each category as a Destination of the hyperlink text.

    - Then I insert a text Variable in the mounting spot in the table of contents, using my simplified page number text variable definition:

    Takes two text Variables with a hyphen between them to express a range of pages. It works well enough.

    A small tip is necessary to the last page of page number. I use a text in the large box in the mount table as a Destination of the hyperlink. He is never seen, but as long as he stays on the right page, it will always give me the page that I need - the last in this section:

    You can create a table of contents with page numbers using bookmarks?

    Sometimes a long article has bookmarks to help navigate, it but has no real TOC (table of contents) on the first page. In such a situation, I think that it would facilitate the reading of the paper version if you can somehow create a table of contents with page based on hierarchical bookmarks in the document numbers.

  • Table of contents issue in Captivate 8!

    Hello


    I use 8 Captivate and noticed that the width of the table of contents and the size of the font of titles are always the same in the primary, tablets, and mobile views.


    It is therefore impossible to use a size of width and the police appropriate to the main display because it will not exceed the edges of the mobile view, and if I do to adapt to this latter view, it becames too small for the primary display.


    How can I have a different TOC width and font size of table of contents for each display mode?

    If you use query selectors media in the CSS after you publish the project, you can have control more the sizes of fonts in any size of device. How do you use the questions from the media that you tell, stir with eyes wonder? Glad you asked, lets give it a whirl!

    First, we're going to get an overview of the project in a browser and to inspect the items in the table of contents to get their name of CSS class. We also take note of the name of the CSS file that has the rules of the element.

    So, we see that the font for each of these three sizes are controlled by the following CSS classes:

    .tocTitleText - "table of contents".

    .tocSlideTitleHeading - 'page title '.

    .tocText - "Slide".

    And the CSS for these classes is located in CPLibraryAll.css (which is put in the assets/css folder of the published project).

    For once we finish tinkering with our project and we are ready to add the media question our training cake icing, publish the project and navigate to the assets/css folder, and open the CPLibraryAll.css file in your favorite text editor. Most of the CSS been compressed up there at the top, but fear not, we'll just do scroll to the bottom of the file and create new things. Here's some info on the media if there will are curious. It's just the first link at random on the topic that I thought was useful, there are many others if you google it. Now to return to the program!

    At the bottom of the CSS file add these three requests, I'll paste it here so you can simply take their easy:

    @media only screen and (max-device-width: 1024px) {}

    {.tocTitleText}

    do-size: 18px;

    }

    {.tocSlideTitleHeading}

    font size: 15px;

    }

    {.tocText}

    font size: 21px;

    }

    }

    @media only screen and (max-device-width: 768px) {}

    {.tocTitleText}

    font size: 15px;

    }

    {.tocSlideTitleHeading}

    do-size: 12px;

    }

    {.tocText}

    do-size: 18px;

    }

    }

    @media only screen and (max-device-width: 360px) {}

    {.tocTitleText}

    font size: 13px;

    }

    {.tocSlideTitleHeading}

    do-size: 10px;

    }

    {.tocText}

    do-size: 16px;

    }

    }

    Now, you will probably change these values to the size of the font to something more close to what you were going, but stick to the same concept: small fonts for the smaller device, large fonts for larger sizes of device. My values here are quite subtle, so don't be afraid to experiment, and I used the pixel (px) instead of sizes in points (pt) so you can change that as well. Nevertheless, do not hesitate to go back into this file and adjust the sizes more to your taste if watch you it and it is not quite to the height.

    So it's probably a little obvious by the text in the Scriptures we've created rules for these three classes that apply only in certain situations, it is better media queries. In this case, we have a set of queries, one for each when the device or look a size struck the unit standard sweet spots: 360, 768 and 1024 pixels width respectively. Allows to extract a screengrab of it in action:

    Here we see for a width of 344 device, max-device-width: query 360px a kicking and substituted the class selectors. In the example, I highlighted the tocSlideTitleHeading to show the link between what it looks like and how the media query has adjusted the font size.

    My experience with the PAC was that if perform you this type of change (introduce the code or settings directly in CAP files) its best to do once you are all written when publishing done with the project. I can't say for sure, but I guess that if you make changes to the CSS file then go back and edit the project in Cape Town and re - publish your tricks of the media query will get wiped out and you will need to put back in. Just something to keep in mind.

    So there go! Questions from the media, FTW!

  • How to add 'Table of contents' in a PDF document

    I want to add to the Table of contents on the first page of almost 100 page PDF document. Adobe has this feature built-in as an Index in microsoft word? Return of pl

    No, it isn't, because it's the kind of thing that must be done before you convert your file to PDF.

  • Table of contents of a paging

    I am trying to create a table of contents, but all my page numbers are listed as I.

    Example:

    Chapter 1... I have

    Chapter 2... I have

    etc.

    Help, please.

    Your table of contents is there; It is located just in white, like your target paragraph style. You can create a new style of paragraph of the content page and select in the menu at the top of the dialog box (labeled Style :) Or you can select and reshape the text manually.

  • Spacing of table of contents

    Is there a way to adjust, to increase, the minimum spacing between a table of contents entry and its page number for paragraphs of the single line? I know that I can insert nonbreaking spaces in long paragraphs, but if a paragraph fits on one line, it does not help.

    The screenshot below shows an entry on the first line which is too close to the page number. The second line is the way I want it to look, but I have to do a return forced to implement. Of couse, when I re - generate the table of contents the forced return disappears, so I hope that there is another technique.

    If editing the frame.ini file would control the spacing, how woiuld that be implemented?

    I swap this in the forum script in the case where there is a way to script it.

    Untitled-1.gif

    If anyone can tell me if this is NOT possible, I understand that too (so that I don't know is not to keep trying to think of workarounds).

    Jay,

    The method I use is not obvious but work because of how FrameMaker seems to work.

    For EACH paragraph format used in your table of contents, those ending in KNOCK, open the paragraph Designer. One of the tabs (do not remember which) has a place to specify the spacing settings. There are three boxes: minimum, optimum, and maximum. The minimum is generally defined 75%, the optimum 100% and up to 125%. Add 100, or 200 or 300% for the minimum AND maximum, BUT NOT optimum, which is set at 100%. For example, the minimum would be 175%, the OPTIMA 100% and the maximum of 225 percent. Click Refresh all. I do this in the template file and then import the paragraph formats in all the files in your book. Then update the book.

    I think FrameMaker tests to adjust the spacing using minimum and maximum, determines where the line break and then sets the optimum spacing of 100%. The result is a line break shortly before the end of the line. You can experiment. The more you add to minimum and maximum, more space between the line break and the end of the line.
