personally, i fully agree with your statement in the sense that a user should not be forced to use external tools for indexing. but i hope that you don't want to forbid them to use other tools! it would make sense that scribus can interface with dedicated indexing tools by both providing a PDF (already working wonderfully) and a text output. and my suggestion to output RTF text was only meant as a workaround for the current state and would simply allow our users to use OO.org/index.html without having to convert the PDF to text and then figuring out where the page breaks are. ciao a.l.e
