Mac OS X only: To search for the dagger character, enter Option+T in the Find what field
of the Find/Change dialog box (Edit menu), and then see if you can solve the problem
in the document or simply remove the daggers from the built index.
Windows only: To search for the "PB "characters, enter them (including the space) in the
Find what field of the Find/Change dialog box (Edit menu), and then see if you can solve
the problem in the document or simply remove the characters from the built index.
Editing and rebuilding the index
To solve issues with the punctuation, the index entries, or the organization of the index,
go back to the Index palette, the Index Preferences dialog box (QuarkXPress/Edit >
Preferences > Index), or the Build Index dialog box (Utilities menu). Make the necessary
changes, and rebuild the index.
Updating the index
If you edit an indexed document after you build the index, you should build the index
again. Because QuarkXPress will not update the index text automatically, you should build
your final index only when you are fairly certain the document is final.
Applying local formatting to the index
When you have an index you are happy with — and are almost certain the publication
will not change — you can often still improve your index with local formatting. For
example, if you only have one entry each under the headings "W," "X," "Y," and "Z," you
might combine them into a single heading for "W–Z." Or you might want to use the
Find/Change dialog box (Edit menu) to apply type styles to certain words. Remember
that the changes will not be reflected in future versions of the index if you decide to delete
or change entries at this stage.
Working with libraries
Libraries are convenient for storing frequently used page items such as logos, publication
mastheads, legal text, and photographs. You can store up to 2,000 entries in an individual
library. A library entry can be a text box, text path, picture box, line, multiple-selected
items, or a group. To move entries in and out of libraries, you simply drag them or cut/copy
and paste them.
Libraries are good for storing items that may be needed at any time in a layout. For example,
corporate logos, legal information, commonly used pictures and text, chart formats, and
clip art are all good candidates for library entries. Items with hard-to-remember formatting
can also be saved in a library.
Use the Library palette's scroll bar to scroll vertically through library entries. Drag the
resize box in the lower-right corner of a Library palette to resize it. You can expand a
Library palette by clicking its zoom box. Click the zoom box again to return to the previous
display.
