Re: chapnum appears twice in PDF bookmarks

[Robert Lauriston]

I had to duplicate an existing page layout with the chapter number
above the title. My goal was to make the paragraph tags compatible
with Word, Confluence 4 XHTML, and MindTouch XHTML for cleaner export.

Autonumber for the chapter title paragraph tag (in my template,
Heading1) increments the chapter counter but does not display the
number: C:n+

On the chapter-first master page, create a separate text frame for the
chapter number, not connected to any flow.

Put a Running H/F # variable in that text frame with definition:
$paranumonly[Heading1]

TOC reference page definition: Chapter $paranum: $paratext \t $pagenum

On the chapter-first master page, I also have a separate text frame
for the chapter title, connected to the main flow, since that was in
the existing page layout, but I don't think that's necessary.

I don't break chapters into separate .fm files, so I have to use Apply
Master Pages when updating the book. If you split chapters into
separate files, that might not be necessary.

 N:$chapnum[space][space][space][space][space][space][space][space][space][space][space]

 I insert these blank spaces to push the chapter title to the next line, for
 example (and the alignment is Center):

  1
 Getting Started

 The chapnum is also included in my table of contents and the spaces are
 replaced with a single tab (on the reference page):

 $chapnum\t$paratext\t$pagenum

 This works in Fm but when I generate a PDF, I see that the chapnum appears
 twice in my bookmarks, for example:

 1 1 Getting Started

 I have also tried the following alternatives, but to no avail:

 option A: Use a tab and a space in my autonumbering, for example
 N:$chapnum\t[space] Same result: chapnum appears twice in my PDF bookmarks
 separate the chapnum from the chapter title bu using two separate paratags,
 for example ~chapnum (for the chapnum only) and ChapterTitle for the actual
 text of the title. ChapterTitle does not have any autonumbering, so I don't
 get the chapnum in my PDF bookmarks

 The only option I see for now is to this:

 N:$chapnum\t

 and put the text of the chapter title on the same line as the chapnum.

 Are there any other alternatives?

 Thanks

chapnum appears twice in PDF bookmarks

[Yves Barbion]

Hi Robert

Yes, I also tried something similar as what you described, but when I use a
"hidden" (character tag > color > white) chapter number for my chapter
title paratags, I don't get to see the chapter number in my PDF bookmarks.

Oh well, not to worry about this anymore. I decided to go for "Simplicity,
the ultimate sophistication" and just put the chapnum on the same line as
the chapter title:

N:<$chapnum>\t

Thanks

chapnum appears twice in PDF bookmarks

Hi Framers

Hi Framers
