Hi Ellen, TOC's and Indexes will not typically be structured in Frame. When considering the typical SGML/XML output for structured files, the focus is on delivering content, not formatting. The headings & markers used in creating the generated files are structured, but the TOC & Index simply indicate pagination for your SGML/XML application, not necessarily what your end-user's pagination will be. In other words, the TOC & Index could be considered formatting info only, not content.
A structured book can require the TOC & Index, but the content of those files will be unstructured, similar to the way an unstructured graphic object can be wrapped within a Figure element. I can't say this is the only way to handle your problem, but it's certainly made my client's installations very straightforward. -Matt Matt Sullivan GRAFIX Training & Consulting www.grafixtraining.com 888/882-2819 -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:framers-bounces+matt=grafixtraining.com at lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Ellen Lebelle Sent: Monday, July 24, 2006 5:30 AM To: framers at lists.frameusers.com Subject: Structured FM - TOC and IX Hello, FM 7.2 Our chapters are all structured and have been for some time. We are trying to finally bring structure to the TOC and IX. It looks like the TOC is going to work, but each time we regenerate a TOC we have to run it through a conversion table, so if anyone has a better solution, please share it. And now, for the index, there are whitespaces that seem to interfere with the structure. The more pages there are references to, the more "untagged text" tags we get. Is there anyone out there who has dealt with this before? Or is thre a ready-made solution that we just don't know about?
