Filtering your records
Records can be filtered via the Merge List's Filter... button by using the Filter
Records tab then subsequently sorted into any combination with the
accompanying Sort Records tab. The option helps you limit the number of
records imported to only those you require.
You can use the Boolean operators "And" and "Or" to build up your filter
criteria row-by-row.
The Sort Records tab is used to sort by three prioritized field names, either in
ascending or descending order.
Creating a table of contents
The Table of Contents Wizard (Insert>Table of Contents...) helps you create a
table of contents with up to six levels of headings and sub-headings derived
from named styles in your publication.
If you're exporting to PDF format, PagePlus can automatically build a bookmark
list using the same style markings in your text.
To create a table of contents:
1. Decide which named styles you want to designate as headings at each
of up to six levels.
2. Check your publication to make sure these styles are used
consistently.
3. Review the choices you'll need to make when you run the Table of
Contents Wizard.
