Template organization

[Art Campbell]

I set the entry in the footers to use the <$chapnum> (or <$volnum>)
variable so that all chapters are the same and don't require manual
tweaking. Then set the value of the <$chapnum> variable to "Index" or
"Contents" or whatever, using the numbering properties tab for the
component in the book.
