Hey list,
Is it possible to instruct ConTeXt to generate just the table of
contents, skipping all other front matter, back matter, appendices, body
matter, etc.? For example, only the following I'd like to see in the
outputted PDF:
% Contents at a glance...
\title{Contents at a Glance}
\placelist[chapter]
% Complete table of contents...
\title{Table of Contents}
\placecontent
Right now I am generating the full book, but then passing through pdftk
manually to extract just the pages that fall within the aforementioned.
I tried putting the aforementioned code in its own product file and then
passing that through ConTeXt with the book's environment, but the
problem is that the TOC now has nothing in it, of course.
I don't know if there is proper interface to this, but you can just load
the tuc file and reuse the labels.
\def\loaddatafile#1%
{\ctxlua {
job.initialize("#1.tuc","#1.tua")
}}%
\loaddatafile{full-book} %with the .tex extension
\starttext
\placelist[chapter]
\stoptext
