Table of contents on the alternative networks

Hi all

I don't know if I'm the only one having this problem or the workflow. We make proposals in a brochure, and they often require the table of contents. Normally, the proposals are very similar. Often the header changes, but the content is the same. It all depends on the Vice President and the customer receives the proposal. Thus, when the headers change, the table of contents must match. So, I could just crush the headers, updated the table of contents, but then a few days later, I have to return them to the previous headers, update the table of contents again.

So my solution is alternative layouts. Two very similar proposals, with different headers, which must also new TOC to match these headers.

My problem is that I can change the parent TOC, but not the child or the second alternative provision. Don't update or I would update the table of contents because it is grayed out.

Just frustrated. I could simply create a new file, do a save as, but then, I have several files which are technically identical, with one header is different.

I am currently using Adobe Creative Cloud on a Windows 7 platform.

I tested it, but there is not a lot of options to choose from. I chose Replace TOC in force, but which does what it says and replaces the table of contents with all the headers from these two layouts. I can't have two COT separated on two separate provisions and have both update with their corresponding page headers.

Thank you

When InDesign engineers added a new feature (like replacing the CS6 provisions), they usually have a customer need (or needs) in mind, and they try to implement in many ways that this new feature relates to the older features as they can.

Alternative layout functionality, frankly, was mainly intended for developers who create applications tablet. The tablets can also display horizontally and vertically and may have several different pixel dimensions and pixel ratios.

Although this feature can also be used for printing applications, it's that it was mainly intended for. I have demonstrated to classes how you can use this to create several posters size or prospectus for printing, and the feature works very well. However, I think you have run into a "side deal" that engineers predict.

I think the function table of contents was not part of their way of thinking, nor their tests, and the two functions don't seem to not work together. I suggest you request a feature here:

  • 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?

  • How hide the table of contents in the body of an e-book?

    Hey people, I'm kind of a weird request. Do not forget that everything I know about InDesign, I taught myself for a month, so I can miss major somethng.

    As an intern, I am creating ebooks and I have to make sure that those I create the same look as the ebooks previously created for my employer (better yet, I had to do it from scratch!). In their previous ebooks (EPUB file format) the table of contents posted by the ereader clearly indicates a specific style of OCD was used to create (he titles and subtitles, so it is not just the default style that draws from the file names), BUT there is NO table of contents anywhere in the body of the ebook itself. There is also no blank page where a table of contents can be hidden with a hidden layer.

    I created a table of contents to match style to them, but I can't it appears in the drop-down menu Styles TOC when I go to export EPUB book file unless the document of the table of contents is also included in the book file, and as I said, I can't get the table of contents in the body of the ebook itself just in the menu that is displayed by an ereader.

    Any advice?

    Did you use dialogue style of content Table to create a new style of table of contents? If so, then the new table of contents style must appear in the drop-down list TOC Style selected in the dialog box in the Navigation options to export EPUB.

  • Indented in the table of contents is not retained in the table of contents of the document

    Hi all

    I use RH7 on a Windows XP Professional platform.

    I am generating documentation and indentation in the table of contents generated in the document is not the same, not even close, as the project.

    I tried to use HTML heading levels maintain checkbox, but while titles fonts are better, indentation in the table of contents for the document is getting worse.

    When I disable this checkbox, it will give me a decent indentation in the table of contents, however the fonts used for headings in the document are sometimes more small then one used for normal text.

    Does anyone has an idea how I could fix it? I don't want to do too much formatting in the Word document either, because it takes a long time.

    Thank you

    Thus in the document that you want to book either title 1 and 2 book 2 and in the table of contents you want this?

    As you can see, this is what I have in the TOC and the body is as described above.

    If you select HTML to maintain levels, you will always get the above with the titles of books but third topic will become a heading 1, as it should with this option checked.

    I maps to a Word template where the TOC styles are defined to be indented as above. Maybe you have to match to a Word template, or if you are, you just need to tweek styles in it.

  • How insert/edit a table of contents in the Bookmap?

    Hi all

    I am quite puzzled, how to use a bookmap to create a full PDF with table of contents to FM9? Everyone (well almost...) wants to OCD but I found nothing in the help and did not try it myself. It seems that I would need to insert a table of contents in the frontmatter section.

    Please excuse if there is already a thread, a link would be useful I have search but can't find this problem in the forum. Maybe it's so simple that I'm the only guy to have problems.

    I also read in FM10 help but found nothing there either. All information is available from adobe at all? Update to FM10 would be an option if needed.

    Hi Robert...

    FM-DITA (any version) does not support the automatic generation of a table of contents, Index, etc. a bookmap book lists entry. To create a generated list, you must manually add this element in the generated directory file and regenerate your book. You'll want to do it anyway so that you can assign paging and numbering and apply special models. This procedure is still the best way to manage the map of generating the address of the DITA standard FM...

    http://KB.leximation.com/DFM/?kbid=4

    Other hand (here is the sales pitch)... If you use DITA-FMx, it is provided automatically. Once you have set up the INI file of book-building with the properties and characteristics in the book, lists of books that add you to the bookmap will become good listings and all your pagination and numbering is applied correctly (in addition to loads of other features).

  • Table of contents for the issue of the ePub

    InDesign CS5; Mac OS 10.6.5

    When I export my TOC document to ePub, do not show the table of contents, only the last two pages with text and an image.

    The table of contents defined paragraph styles. I think I have my correct export settings.

    Help to isolate this problem is appreciated.

    Note: Display of other documents in the book via ePub export display correctly, although the book must refine to ePub format.

    Also, when I tried to export the entire book through the book panel, InDesign starts export, but no activity in the progress bar. I have to force quit to get out of the endless loop. Then when I restart InDesign, Untitled files begin to open, 10, 20 and so on. So, I have to manually close each file.

    I suspect that OCD is causing this issue.

    Yes, that's correct. Once I've re-recorded old files "CS" in the new version, including the file book. Everything worked well.

    And I don't mean just making a backup (thinking that will result in savings in the current version) I want to talk about a backup - as in another folder in a different location... ie you Office

    Any help is appreciated.

    The start page is not a topic. This is what opens the three components and the topic you see in that is the default theme.

    By default, HR takes the name of your project and which initially applies the page so if your project is called redrabbit, the start page will be redrabbit.htm.

    Many authors can call the redrabbit of the theme by default as it is the name of the project and it seems logical.

    Problem is when the wizard attempts to use it as the default value for the start page, the name is used for the number 1 is added.

    This means that you end up with redrabbit and redrabbit1. If you look in the wizard, you will see the name of the start page, first on the ground. You do not redirect, that redirect you to the default topic that is longer than down in the page of the wizard. The index is that the field is called the default theme.

  • Several table of contents in the document

    Hello

    I'm new in the FM8. I recently received a document FM8. The structure of the document is:

    Each document file corresponds to a chapter. Each chapter has a table of contents for its secondary headings and paragraphs.

    Table of contents (here is the chapter of 1 to 10, that chapters)

    Is then Chapter 1 includes a table of contents with all subtitles and paragraphs (for example 1.1, 1.1.1 and so on)

    Chapter 2-10 similarly.

    This isn't everything.

    Chapter 7, 8, 9 and 10 are placed in different folders, corresponding with the title of chapters. The rest of them (Chapter 1 to 6) are placed in the same folder.

    For chapters 7, 8, 9 and 10, I managed to update the second table of contents (which contains subtitles and subsections - for example 1.1, 1.1.1 etc..)

    There is in the main folder that contains the rest of the chapters of the files of table of contents for the main Table of contents and the contents of subeahds and paragraohs corresponding to each chapter. Here, I have problems with their updated because when I opened the book and update only the main table of contents will be updated. The problem appears when I create a PDF file. Because after the creation of PDF when I click on a chapter name in the table of contents it will bring me to the chapter I want to but when I click on the table of contents for subtitles/paragraphs that has nothing happened, except for chapters 7, 8, 9 and 10.

    So, to be more explicit.

    When I click on Chapter 7 in format pdf, acrobat will send me to Chapter 7 where I find another OCD where if I click subead 7.3 that he send me to the page that includes the chapter 7.3. On the contrary if I click on Chapter 4 it will bring me to the page corresponding to Chapter 4, but if I click subtitle 4.3 that nothing will happen.

    I will attach an example of this PDF.

    The structure of the file looks like this:

    Chapter 7 the folder:

    -Book

    -The TOC file Chapter 7

    -Chapter 7 (same goes for Chapter 8, 9 and 10)

    The project folder

    -Book (it contains all files from Chapter 1 to 10)

    -File table of contents (the main table of contents)

    -Files table of contents of the chapters

  • Table of contents of the printed Documentation

    How can I specify the location of the table of contents in the printed documentation? I would like it to appear after the title page, but it still appears before her.

    It's true. The title page which is created by the printed documentation is a default start page that you have little control over. If you imported a word document that already contains a title page that does not appear before the table of contents because the HR doesn't recognize it as such. Those of us who create print usually do as you describe. We create a generic title page that is stored in a separate word file. Then we generate the output and copy the frontispiece. You need to remove the title page of the printed good documentation process, otherwise you'll end up with both of them! I hope this helps.

  • Table of contents in the pdf documentation

    Hi people,
    It's me again, hehe.
    I tried to make a printed pdf documentation for an already existing RoboHelp project, and points to the table of contents are totally weird. Odd in what sense? I have the major points of the content mentioned briefly, or not at all, but they are in the normal TOC, however the 'License agreement' subject is detailed point by point, and I have no need that.
    My question is, does anyone know where the content of the table of contents in the printed PDF documentation could be configured?
    Everything works now nice and dandy outside this little thing, and I would like to have straightened out.
    Thanks guys,.
    Bogdan

    That's what I thought too, but every time that I was trying to make the documentation in pdf format, I received a short table of contents with too much insistence on the license agreement, which I do not remember asking.
    I tried to find where I could control that, and I've not found anything, I posted this topic in the forum while waiting for someone to give me some advice.
    As I was still experimenting more, I thought about the .doc where I can easily change the table of contents as I have Office installed on my system.
    As I was trying that, I forgot to remove the check mark from 'create pdf' and I got both the doc and pdf documentation. To my surprise I discovered that two documents, being identical to the content, more in the table of contents that my previous pdf was, showed well I don't change anything in the settings, because I have not found anything to change.
    So I opted for the creation of the doc, edit the table of contents (it still has too much emphasis on the license agreement, but I have enough focus on other subjects now) and export to PDF doc.
    It's the whole story.

  • Table of contents of the previous project import

    I hope someone can help me. I came across some problems with a robohelp project (well Yes, played and run the project on a network and lost) but to make a long story short, I got an old backup of the project I had on my computer and then imported all the headings of the broken Server version and I'm especially back in business.

    The only thing I have however is the most recent TOC and Index files. I tried just copy and paste the recovered files .hhc and .hhk project folder broken to the project folder but when I'm in Robohelp I still don't see the table of contents options?

    What can I do?

    Hello

    What version of RoboHelp do you use? If it's a fairly recent version, it should be pretty easy to get the table of contents added. For example, in RoboHelp 11, you are able to right click on the folder TOC in project manager and choose "New Table of contents". Then you can give it a name, click the icon selection and point to one of the TOCs your copied on. That action could import the structure in a table of contents would be aware of.

  • Table of contents: linking the titles and page numbers

    Hi all

    In my paper, I created a table of contents.

    Like most books, I want to link titles and paragraphs to their pages by a dotted or dashed, just like that:

    Title - P2

    subtitle - P3

    etc...

    I also use these links in checklists to connect the left side of the list to the right side.

    And this isn't something wrong: this faclity Visual really helps you recognize what's on poles on the right with the correct item on the left.

    Is there a way or a function in Pages to automatically create these links instead of typing for each item in the Table of contents (which can be very long, little time)?

    Thanks for your time.

    Lopez.

    With your table of contents is generated, click each item in the table of contents (for example, title, subtitle, title 1, etc.) so that it appears highlighted. Your right in v5.6.2 Pages panel will show the Table of contents and a text label.

    Further down in the text tab, there will be an area of tabs. If it is not expanded, click the word ▸ tabs. Click any selector in the column Leader and the choice of your choice for your boss to fill. There is no provision to set a color of head. Here is an example:

  • 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.
