Firstly, you can apply master pages to all left and right pages after the index heading. The range indicator can be either Single, Span pages, or Until changed. As for Indices that are part of the flow. Ugh. Chapter page numbering would eliminate the problem. Multiple indices for a book that numbers the pages throughout seems bizarre. If the book must be page numbered sequentially throughout, I'd be tempted to build the indices by script and formed with Xrefs, not generated files with hyperlinks. At least then, once generated, changes to pages would be corrected with one update. Other than that, why are you "importing" the indices? The index files should just be included in the master book as well as the individual document book files used to generate them. Twice round with the generation should ensure that the page numbers are all correct. Just ensure that numbering and pagination etc are only updated in the master book and that the individual document book files only generate the index files. If the indices (or are we really talking about TOCs?) must be incorporated in the document files, use text insets. Eric L.
