• Table of contents - several line Page # alignment problem

  Hi all

  I have a Table of contents, in which I have a few entries that develops in two lines.

  When the contained entries Table expand to two lines, leader are not added and page numbers shows next to the entrance.

  See Image below: entrance with RED ARROW - 1.9.4 indicates Page 44 without a leader:

  

  No explanation will be appreciated.

  Thank you.

  No need to change the titre3 paragraphs. Look at the reference to the table of contents page. There is probably a page containing the TOC tag that defines the format of the entries in the table of contents. There the paragraphs which badges are derived from paragraphs in the main document that generate entries by adding OCD to the original label. Thus, registrations for titre3 paragraphs are marked Heading3TOC. The reference page has a Heading3TOC which looks like point something lke:

  <$paranumonly>  <$paratext>.........................<$pagenum>

  When there is a tab between <$paranumonly>character and <$paratext>that moves from the left side of the <$paratext>2.0 cm, and another tab between <$paratext>and <$pagenum>that moves to the right of the <$pagenum>-12.0 cm.

  I mean put a space before the second tab. You can also add an additional tab before the <$pagenum>.

• Table of Contents Page size woes...

  Using InDesign (CS4) generator of OCD, it generates the table of contents with the page numbers appropriate for the sections of the book, but the size of the page seems to be wrong. I use the format letter 1/2 for the page, but the table of contents generated seems to have been formatted to a page of the complete letter... it looks like this...

  If the pipe symbols below represent page limits, points that precede the page numbers "wrap" to the next line... I know it is formatted on the page for a full letter size, because when I print, everything is lined up perfectly on a sheet of paper 8-1/2 "x 11":

  | Chapter 1....................................|

  |.................... 25                          |

  | Chapter 2....................................|

  |.................... 76                          |

  There, anyone have an idea why it is doing this?... I created the page table of contents of the document with a 1/2-letter size, but the TOC generator doesn't seem to be aware of this. Any help is greatly appreciated.

  Kind regards

  It seems that you must adjust tab settings in the paragraph style that is applied to the entries in the table of contents. Make sure that what one tab aligned to the right is fixed at the end of the text block. If a tab extends beyond the edge of the text frame, the text to "wrap" on a new line. It is sometimes useful to delete all tabs and then start over if multiple and tabs have been set.

• Difficulties of formatting a Table of contents

  I watched videos, manage to create a paragraph style for titles I want to appear in a Table of contents, but the page numbers are placed on the next line below each entry. I'm not good with this and have to ask ourselves:

  How can I get the page numbers to appear at the end of the line in front of the entrance?

  I also want to put a nice dotted line or an underscore between the entry and page number to make it easy to identify.

  I am interested in the formatting as I want this look nice also. Advice on adding custom baseline control, and perhaps a "BOLD" for page numbers would be nice to know also.

  TIA,

  Ken

  Seems to me that you have a dash after the lieting, followed by an end nested style character, and then a withdrawal right, tab followed to another ordinary tab. End nested style is of no consequence, but the two legs are what causes the problem. Use of withdrawal right tab (^ y) or a regular tab (^ t) with a fixed position, but not both.

• Has anyone who has worked with doc us MIL - STD and generated with the success of the page numbers in the table of contents?

  I'm creating a template using FrameMaker 7.2.

  MIL - STD dictates works package (such as chapters) page numbers in the format: 0001-1, 2-0001, 0002-1 and 2-0002, etc.

  The problem I encounter draws in this format of the page number in the table of contents generated.

  I used a variable on the Master Page, and generate page numbers in each package to work properly.

  I know that in point 7.2 of the FM, you cannot include a variable in a table of contents generated.

  So I tried changing the variable on the Master Page to text using a paragraph tag (WPnumber), but have not gotten it either works.

  Tried all the other stuff I could think of, too.

  In my view, a part of the problem is that FM cannot have leading zeros when you set the page number or chapter (understandable 99.9% of the time).

  If anyone has suggestions or solutions, I am very interested to hear.

  Thank you.

  1Editor - and puzzled

  I already manually put the zeros.

  I just want to be clear that strikes the zeros directly on the master page does NOT have to include in the table of contents. You then type in the context of the reference to the table of contents also. In addition, you must have separate template and reference pages for chapters 10, 11, etc., in order to obtain the number of zeros correctly.

  With my method, the zeros are introduced as part of the chapternumber itself, in the chapter number of the TEXT. You still have to type but only once for each file.

• Title chapter works on numbered list, but does not redial in Table of contents

  I'm doing a long document and put each chapter in a separate file.

  I use the chapter number variable in the title of the chapter and bullet styles is used in the heading and numbered lists set to ^ h ^ #^ t. It works very well in all the chapters.

  For example:

  Chapter 1

  1.0 header of a zero with the numbered list style

  Copy copy copy

  1.1 header a numbered list style

  Copy copy copy

  1.2 header a numbered list style

  and so on

  Chapter 2

  2.0 header with zero style

  Copy copy copy

  2.1 header a numbered list style

  Copy copy copy

  2.2 header a numbered list style

  and so on

  BUT when I create the table of contents and want the header of those who are listed, they appear like this

  1.0 header of... 1

  1.1 header... 5

  1.2 header of... 7

  1.3 header of... 9 (this should be the 2.0 header)

  1.4 header of... 12 (it should be 2.1 header)

  1.5 header of... 13 (this should be the heading 2.2)

  How to make the table of contents list the correct numbering, using the chapter title variable that is used in each file in the book?

  Thank you

  Maryann

  Okay, I think that I have now.

  1. Open the table of contents
  2. Layout > Table of contents
  3. Changing the shape of paragraphs numbered to include the full paragraph, OK
     
  4. If it does not, you will have duplicate numbers, but the new set is correct.
  5. If so, window > Styles
  6. Edit the table of contents and change the Type of list to none.
  7. Update the table of contents once more

  Looking forward to hear words that's it.

• Table of contents using a style/section of the master page

  I'm at the top of my head I think... and probably incorrectly to the top of my document.  I hope I can quickly explain where I am:

  Question 1

  I'd like a Table of contents to use 10 section headers that appear throughout my document.  Here's how I set up:

  • In the master page, a place for the header of section and it gives a paragraph style.
  • Then, throughout the document, I used the "numbering and section options" start each new section and give this article is the unique name.

  When I went to generate the Table of contents, I've specified using this particular paragraph style that I used for the section headers, but nothing appears (except for the title, I asked for the General table of contents).  It's as if this isn't to find the sections - or this style (which applies only to the master page).

  Where am I wrong?

  Question 2

  I wish that my Table of contents, not numbered.  How do I do that?

  Shanell

  I don't know that you understood my post. I was able to do exactly what you did - create a master page with a frame and the section marker character (indicating "section" on the master page) and then add the actual text of the marker in the numbering and section options. The text appears on the page of live document.

  When I tried to do a table of contents, text was not resumed UNTIL I selected and carried this master frame on the page of the document (Ctrl + Shift + click on Windows or Cmd + Shift + click on Mac on the image that you want to replace). After substitution, the text appeared as scheduled in the table of contents.

  You're right about the number of page for this page. You can use another master without a page number, or you can cancel and delete the master page number frame. I assume that you will need to use a different master for the first page and pages in any section to avoid having the marker appear on all pages, or you can replace only the first page so that you don't repeat entries in the table of contents for each page of each section.  If you use the marker as a running header Section, you can learn more about Variables header running in the help files in place. In many ways, the use of a variable can be simpler and more direct.

• How to choose chapter numbers in table of contents headers?

  Each new chapter title is in a table of one row and two columns. Column 1 contains only a large number (numbered style called ChapNum) against a shaded background and column 2 (shaded) contains the title of the chapter (Heading1 - which is NOT numbered; only the style of column 1 contains numbering.)

  The only exceptions are the Preface (a title 1) chapter and the table of contents itself (which uses TOCTitle so it will not appear in the table of contents). For both, the shaded column 1 uses a style called ChapNoNum.

  Layout a sideheads. first page of each numbered chapter looks like this:

  |-----|--------------------------|
  |     |                          |
  | 1   | Heading1.
  |-----|--------------------------|
  |     | text text text text text |
  |     | text text text text text |

  |     | 2. more things... 5.

  But the table of contents contains only the Heading1s, which are not numbered. How to include the ChapNum in front of the title 1 in the table of contents? (I tried to use graphical boxes on master pages, instead of the rows in the table on the page body, but have not found the answer it.)

  Any help is welcome.

  Table of contents specified only captures paragraph formats. Chapter numbers are not specified in the table of contents, so they are not captured. To capture the number and paragraphs of title, you must specify both formats in implementing TOC. For race number in the title, you must assign a paragraph format in the entrance of the number in the table of contents; This will cause the title to the number on the same line.

• How to display a complete tree of the table of contents in the body of a page instead of the sidebar?

  How to display a full (project) TOC tree in the body of the pages of the section instead of the default sidebar (left pane)? Is there a simple way to do this in the application? I have not yet discovered a way to do it, but I can't get to the right place. Any suggestions?

  I don't think you can view the table of contents on a page, and even if you could, the sidebar would always be there for indexing and search. The only possibility I can think of is to create a page where you create links arranged to act as a TOC, then maybe iFrame this page in. Each book might be a drop-down list to view links to topics.

  Maintenance would be horrible and she barely meets your requirement to be simple.

• Problem with the table of contents pages and books

  I use 8 HR and generate Webhelp.

  I created a project and had to change a few pages of table of contents and create TOC books instead. I deleted the pages and added books, with the same name. HR, it looks fine, but when I generate the table of contents for the page instead of the book. I tried to clear my cache in Internet Explorer, and the deletion of the page again. Still no help. I rebooted and even rebooted and still have the same thing. Can someone tell me how to solve this problem?

  Thank you.

  Indeed if a book has nothing in it, it will not appear in the table of contents. When you think about it, it is very logical. Why would you want a book to appear if nothing was inside?

  See you soon... Rick

• Tagging in Word 2007, Acrobat XI, page numbers not working not

  I have a Word 2007 docx file I am trying to convert it to a PDF file with active marking.  It converts to PDF very well, but once converted marking does not work.  Specifically, I'm trying reach the table of contents for the page tag on correlated pages numbers.  The only reason I can think that it does not is that page numbers in the footer of a Word.  I tried enabling all options of marking, but the page numbers will not be yet to score.  Any ideas?  Oh, I'm using Acrobat XI, 11.0.9.  Attached are the screenshots of my settings.

  

  So, thanks to a student C pointing me in the right direction, I found the answer to this question.  Acrobat keys off the coast of the Table of contents in Word to create clickable items.  Go to Word and go (I use Word 2007 in this example) references > summary > Add Table of contents.  I'm doing this from memory, so the steps may be slightly off.  Then you must select the parameters as indicated below and when the PDF is created, it will create a clickable table of contents.  This is what worked for me.  Good luck to anyone else.

  

• Minimizing the differences between the print document page numbers and page numbers fixed ePub format

  Hi all!

  I'm currently involved in a project of ePub format fixed relatively simple. I almost completely finished with the file, but I see for export, only the page numbers in the table of contents for navigation begin numbering at a point different than the print document.

  I certainly don't expect the software ideally know exactly where I want the numbering to start, but I was wondering: is there a way to change the starting point of the navigation table of contents so that I can select the starting point? Here's a screenshot of the situation I describe, taken on my iPad mini using iBooks. A fix for InDesign would be useful, I am very willing to modify the code. Please let me know what additional information can help.

  Thank you very much

  Jacob

  

  I don't have a good answer for you on that I've been unable to get this works as is suspected.

  The next update will include support for a list of the fixed layout pages and to my surprise that it was unsuccessful in the evolution of the Navigation table of contents page (right) numeric values that you see.

  Those who seem to come from literally the index of the XHTML file where is the target of the table of contents. If iBooks is unable to find the target it displays the entry under '... ».

  Where the list of pages seems to make a difference on the iOS7/iBooks, is when you're scouring the pages in display mode page it will display the value of the entry in the list of pages... which is now generated from the string of InDesign page number in a gray oval.

  Maybe this has changed to iOS8/iBooks or perhaps other readers it manage differently - I never had the chance to try it on other players.

• Adobe PDF Pack - create a Table of contents in combined PDFs I create?

  Can I create a table of contents for the PDF files, I am combining in Adobe PDF Pack?

  If the answer is YES can I appoint each the name of name PDF documents I want the page named in the Table of contents?

  Thank you.

  Michael

  Hi Michael,

  When you combine files into a single PDF, every file that you include will be a bookmark in the Bookmarks panel in Acrobat/Reader. So, I guess you could treat it as a Table of contents. (It is not, however, create a table of contents separate and add it to the file.) The bookmark names will reflect the name of each file you file handset.

  I hope that answers your question.

  Best,

• All my attempts so far to generate the table of contents for Kindle (.mobi) failed. Can anyone help?

  I used InDesign CC to create an epub file and the TOC and the Navigation bar appear perfectly in Adobe Digital Editions (version 3.0). Then I saved the file to the IDML format open InDesign CS6 and use the Kindle Plugin to create a mobi file. I use the same style of table materials used to create the epub file, but although Kindlegen validates the file, the table of contents is unable to generate. I've been on several discussion forums and many people express problems by having their TOC displayed in Kindle Previewer. Can anyone help?

  Hello

  Kindle requires a separate html file for OCD and even must be referenced in the guide in content.opf element. In your InDesign CC document, generate the table of contents on a page and make sure the option 'Make the anchor text to the source paragraph' is checked.

  Now export the EPUB 3 file. Open EPUB in Sigil (it's a free EPUB editor of Google). Menu Goto tools-> Table of contents-> generate HTML Table of contents. This creates a new xhtml file and automatically adds the element of guidance in content.opf like this:

  Save EPUB and open directly into Kindle Previewer. Table of contents option must be turned on now and should work.

  Please try and let me know if it works.

  Kind regards

• Is it possible to have multiple tables of contents in webhelp output that can be chosen according to the role of the user/client?

  Our product is composed of several modules, for example, the modules-1 thru 8 - module.  We sold all 8 modules or some of them - in different combinations to different customers. I've developed help online in the same direction, that is, in the modules, help-1 to ' help-8. Each help module has its own table of contents.  According to the requirement for a particular client, I integrate the required modules, build the main table of contents using the mini-table of existing materials for each assistance, generate the sequence to browse and compile. This has been my routine until now.

  Now, the product development team would like to automate this process: for example, they want to give me the help of output for the 8 modules in integrated form, as well as tables of contents separate for a combination of different modules for different customers like, assistance, modules 1 to 8, 1-2-3, 1-5-6, etc..  They feel the moment this TOC fell in the output of aid, it should automatically start functioning - without compiling!

  I explained the process used to develop Robohelp projects, how TOCs are built, etc., but they want to know if there is a work around, so that when a customer asks for modules 3, 7 and 8, immediately, they can go down the table of contents (for 3-7-8) at the end of the project, and it should work - without compiling , or anything of that kind. I tried Google and Adobe Forum, but couldn't find something suitable.

  Do you have a solution? A solution to this problem?

  What you need is merged help.

  You generate a parent and all the child projects. You always install the parent and then any child projects, you need. OCD, search and index adjusts automatically. See the pages on my site.

  Note, however, that many people take another view for the development of your product. See all assistance and people then view information about something and realize that they need!
