Re: Question about TOC, LOF, LOT
I don't want to import the entire file into the TOC. I just want a TOC that looks like this: Table of Contents List of Figures . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .LOF-1 List of Tables . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .LOT-1 Introduction . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . INTRO-1 and ect. Thanks!

Re: Question about TOC, LOF, LOT
Open the TOC. Scoll to the place where you want the LOF to appear. File > Import > File > filename.LOF and set the options as you'd like. Then repeat the previous step for the LOT.

In which case, Deirdre, once you generate the LOF and LOT, you will of course add some sort of heading pgf for each. Just add those heading tags to the Include list when you set up your TOC.

Re: Question about TOC, LOF, LOT
Sorry, don't mean to be thick -- I'm still learning Framemaker! How do I do this? I'm on Windows XP running FM 8.0. I have the book open, with the TOC highlighted. All other files are closed. Thanks so much.

Re: Question about TOC, LOF, LOT
Assuming you mean that they're still going to be discrete lists within the TOC, no, it shouldn't be a problem. In the TOC, just import the LOF and LOT files as text insets.

Re: Question about TOC, LOF, LOT
Well, now I have a problem. We've decided to keep the order TOC, LOF, LOT, and to put the LOF and the LOT in the TOC. Is there some way I can automate that? Or, since the LOF and the LOT are automatically generated, do I have to do it by hand each time I generate a TOC?

The CMoS supports your ordering; that's the standard way of putting a book together.

RE: Question about TOC, LOF, LOT
Yes LOF and LOT are both examples of front matter, but so is a ToC. IMHO, the only things (standard elements) that should come before the ToC are the Cover and the Legal page (if not at the end). Anything else will likely just be contrary to user expectations. With that said, there ARE exceptions to every rule, and this may be one (though on the surface, it doesn't sound like it). Before acquiescing, I'd ask for a better reason than the "front matter" one. Perhaps he can show you some examples of documents (external to your organization) that are organized his way? -Michael -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Deirdre Reagan Sent: Monday, February 18, 2008 4:46 PM To: framers@lists.frameusers.com Subject: Question about TOC, LOF, LOT Hi all: My co-worker and I are debating about the order of the TOC, LOF and LOT.
