Operation Manual

Working with Text 165
4. From the Insert menu, choose Table of Contents... to run the Wizard.
5. You can easily modify the look of your table of contents, or run the
Wizard again to update the information.
You can optionally hyperlink each page number to its actual page location. (See
Hyperlinking an object on p. 170.)
Using styles to prepare a table of contents
The Wizard will show you a list of all the style names used in your publication,
and you will check boxes to include text of a given style as a heading at a
particular level (1 through 6). For example, you could pull out all text using the
"Heading" style as your first-level headings.
Entries in the resulting table of contents will appear in the order the text occurs
in your publication.
When the table of contents is created, PagePlus formats it using built-in text
styles (p. 132) intended specifically for table of contents preparation: "Contents-
Title" and "Contents-1st" through "Contents-6th". You can easily change the
look of your table of contents by changing the style definitions for these built-in
"Contents" styles.
Creating an index
An index is a valuable reader aid in a longer document such as a report or
manual. The Index Wizard helps you create an index with main entries and
subentries, based on index entry marks you insert in frame, table, or artistic
text.
To mark index entries:
1. Select a portion of text or click for an insertion point before the first
word you want to mark.
2. Select Edit Story from the Edit menu. The WritePlus window opens.
3. Click the Mark Index button on the Story toolbar.
4. Use the Mark Index Entry dialog to edit index entry marks in the
Main entry or Subentry box.
