Hello all,
I'm having "fun" generating index for a Vietnamese manual and I could use some
help. Actually... HELP!!!
For those who is not familiar with vietnamese - the alphabet contains 18
letters A with all manner of accents, 12 letters E and about same for O and U -
so obviously we can't talk about normal <$alphabetics> on the reference page. I
set up reference page with the whole sequence of letters as they would need to
appear by alphabet and Frame does generate index in a correct sequence. Ref.
page looks something like that: Aa?????? Bb Cc Dd ?????? Ff Gg... etc.
Now, the problem is that for some reason FrameMaker thinks that some letters
are identical to each other and sorts them as if they were the same so you
would end up with
t?n th??ng:s? ki?t s?c v?
t?n th??ng:s?? ta?i ki?ch thi?ch cu?a
sorted as:
t?n th??ng, 15
s? ki?t s?c v?, 90, 54
the way I noticed something was wrong was that the page numbers appear out of
sequence. Checked and saw that two totally different entries sorted as one.
Has anyone run into doing this kind of stuff?
Can someone help?
Michael
