I've created many indexes in FM 5.1 through 7.2, and recently began working with 9.0. I've never had my own indexes exhibit this behavior, either in FM or in PDF. The hotspots have always been limited to the page numbers, whether an entry had one or multiple page numbers. I'm looking right now at the FM 7 MIF_Reference.pdf and MML_Reference.pdf. The former's index exhibits the behavior I'm familiar with: only the page numbers are hyperlinks. The latter exhibits the behavior you describe: the entire line is a hyperlink. The index behavior I'm familiar with is the result of generating a regular index -- which is what I always do. I suspect that the behavior you're describing is the result of generating something else -- probably an alphabetical list of markers (ALM) or index of markers (IOM). Richard G.
