Hmmm, I had no idea that one could put a book file within a book file. How about creating a separate book (done with save as) for your book file that you want to put within the other book, and then delete the generated files?

Classification: SERCO-PUBLIC OK, so, I played around a bit more. I hope the following makes sense to you. To recap: the book file from which I'm generating the index contains around 200 files and a book file, thus: IOM (Index of Markers) Files . . . Book This book file contains ordinary fm files and generated TOC, LOT, LOF and IX files, thus: Title Preface TOC LOF LOT Files . . . IX Now, I noticed that the TOC/LOF/LOT wodge consisted of 14 pages. So I inserted a spurious index marker in the Preface (i.e. before the generated wodge), and regenerated the consolidated book. Bingo, the spurious index entry had the correct page number, and markers on pages after the generated wodge produced numbers 14 adrift from reality, as before. The 21-page discrepancy between the reported number of pages of the subsidiary book in the consolidated file and the subsidiary book file is accounted for by all the generated files, i.e. the front-wodge and the IX file. And when I generate a PDF, the generated files in the subsidiary book are ignored. I can only assume that when one generates a book containing a book (so to speak), Frame ignores the generated files in the contained book, for some reason. My quick-and-dirty will be to temporarily insert a 14-page file in the subsidiary book to pad it out. Anyone have any further thoughts?
