RE: [docbook-apps] multi-column index does not work for DBMy mistake. I thought I was running 4.9, but it was actually 4.6. When I use 4.9, I do not get collapsed page sequences.
However, it seems to work when I put the xep extension property on the fo:root element as follows: <xsl:attribute-set name="root.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="rx:merge-subsequent-page-numbers">true</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> (and make sure the rx namespace is declared in your customization layer). I looked through the XEP doc for 4.6 and 4.9 and I don't see any differences regarding this property.

However, Bob wrote Regarding the XEP index features, I find in XEP versions 1.45 and 1.49 that the page sequences are collapsed. Here are some examples from your (extended) document: N nine, 1-3 nineteen, 1-2, 4 ntwo, 1, 3-4 Bob - are you sure you checked 4.9?

I could have sworn that it did...
