Add an Index
An Index object represents an index in both the printed and on‐line documentation.
The Index object contains a hierarchical outline list in which the Index Entry objects
can be arranged to form the structure of the index. When published, the index can be
based on all headings in the document, any cross‐references, and any Index Entry
objects that contain objects found in the Book being published.
For this example, we will use the Standard Index object that already exists in the
Library.
To Add an Index Object
1) Open the Tutorial01 Book object in Book Editor view.
2) From the main window, select the Shared\Front and Back Matter folder. A list of
objects contained within the folder appears.
3) From this list of objects, drag and drop the Standard Index object into the contents
pane of the Book Editor.
