Click the Add button . The new index entry is alphabetized and indented under the
appropriate entry.
Choose Suppress Page # in the Scope drop-down menu when an index entry will be used
as a heading for more levels of information. For example, if you were creating a cookbook,
you might create an entry for "Cake," suppress its page number, and then list different
types of cakes, such as "chocolate" or "lemon," as second- or third-level entries.
Creating cross-references
In addition to listing page numbers for index entries, you can also refer readers to other
topics. For example, in a reference to "Typography," you might list "See also Fonts." To do
this, you create cross-references. You can create a cross-reference to an existing entry in
the index, or you can add a new entry specifically for the cross-reference. Use the Index
palette (View > Show Index) to create cross-references.
Creating a cross-reference for a new index entry
To create a cross-reference for a new index entry:
1
Place the Text Insertion bar anywhere in text (it doesn't matter where you place it because
page numbers will not be listed for this entry).
2
Enter text for the entry in the Text field of the Index palette.
3
Use the Sort As and Level controls as you would to create any other index entry.
4
Choose Cross-Reference from the Scope drop-down menu. Choose the type of
cross-reference you want from the drop-down menu: See, See also, or See herein.
5
Specify the index entry being cross-referenced by entering text in the field or clicking an
existing entry in the list.
6
Click the Add button. Expand the entry to see the cross-reference text.
