Creating a cross-reference for an existing index entry
To create a cross-reference for an existing 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
Select an entry in the Entries list. The entry is automatically placed in the Text field.
3
Click the Edit button on the Index palette, double-click the entry, or select the
entry and display the context menu.
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.
To see the cross-reference text in the Entries list along with the page number references,
expand the entry.
When you build an index, cross-references immediately follow page number references.
They are formatted with the character style sheet specified in the Index Preferences
dialog box (Edit > Preferences > Index). If you specify Entry's Style, the cross-reference
will use the same style sheet as the entry it follows. Using the Style drop-down menu
(Index palette) to specify a character style sheet for a cross-reference will override the
style sheet you specified in the Index Preferences dialog box. The text you enter in
the Cross-Reference field will have that style sheet applied; however, the style sheet
will not be applied to the "See," "See also," or "See herein" part of the cross-reference.
The punctuation preceding cross-references is specified in the Before Cross-References
field of the Index Preferences dialog box (QuarkXPress/Edit > Preferences > Index).
If you want punctuation following a cross-reference, enter it after the cross-reference
text you entered in the Index palette.
Editing an index entry
You can select an index entry and edit the information in the Text or Sort As fields.
You can also select a cross-reference or page number reference and edit the information
in the Style or Scope drop-down menus. You can also change an entry's level.
1
Select an entry or reference in the Entries list. (To see the references, expand an entry.)
2
Click the Edit button on the Index palette, double-click the entry, or select the entry
and choose Edit from the context menu.
