Hi Rob, You can change the sort order of an index marker by specifying a sort order in square brackets at the end of the index marker text. For example, say your marker text is this
Volumes:1 Volumes:2 Volumes:10 Volumes:99 Volumes:100 Change them to this Volumes:1[Volumes:001] Volumes:2[Volumes:002] Volumes:10[Volumes:010] Volumes:99[Volumes:099] Volumes:100[Volumes:100] and you will get the correct sort order in your index. If you have a lot of markers in your document/book, you can use FrameScript to do this automatically for you. If you are interested in a FrameScript solution, contact me offlist. Thanks.
