Hello Bob, Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I will check it out!
Michel Van: Bob Stayton <b...@sagehill.net> Verzonden: vrijdag 9 september 2022 17:59 Aan: docbook@lists.oasis-open.org Onderwerp: Re: [docbook] question about indexes in epubs The stylesheets have a parameter to substitute titleabbrev (if it exists) instead of title for an index entry: http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/index.prefer.titleabbrev.html That would require populating your content with titleabbrev elements. You can also customize your output by copying and editing this template from autoidx.xsl in your customization layer: <xsl:template match="indexterm" mode="reference"> In that template you'll see "<a>" which starts the link output and then defines a "title" variable. The $title value is used in both the @title attribute on the anchor element and as the displayed text in the index entry, as you'll see further down the template: <xsl:value-of select="$title"/> <!-- text only --> </a> You can either modify the title variable, or just leave that title in the @title attribute and replace the final value-of with something like: <xsl:value-of select="'>>'"/> or whatever you want to put there.

Are your sections numbered? If so, is there an option to display the section number (eg 3.1.4.2) instead of the title?
