I have not indexed a manual at the company I work for now, our manuals usually just have a table of contents, mainly due to time restraints. However at my last position I did index the manuals, which were usually quite large. I would love to have the time to index the manuals I do now. Actually I am in the process of doing other projects, and would love to have a manual to index. :) Melissa
