Hi Nancy, This suggestion is sent only because you solicited "all suggestions" in your appeal.
You might consider assigning a Text format to your preface file so that the page numbers appear as something similar to: Preface - 1, Preface - 2, Preface - 3 P - 1, P - 2, P - 3 Or something esthetically pleasing to your document style. Sorry, this is not a real answer to your question. Good luck, Ed DeRosier Anritsu Company ** ** ** ** from framers Digest, Vol 63, Issue 9 ** ** ** ** From: Nancy Allison <ma...@verizon.net> Subject: Indexing front matter Hi, all. My manuals use chapter numbering, so an index entry for page 3 of chapter 5 comes out like this: Apple pie recipe, 5-3 The front matter has roman numerals with no prefixes, so a reference to Technical Support in the Preface should look like this: Technical Support, xiii ... I know how to set up a new IX format in the Reference page of the Index, which would use only the <$pagenum> variable. What I can't figure out is, how do I assign that format to the Preface entry only? Thanks for all suggestions. --Nancy _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to framers as arch...@mail-archive.com.
