Quick workaround for that ....
Build a book that has only the content files, (No TOC or Index).

Bookinfo works great, I use it myself.  But one word of caution.  If you
are
counting the words in a book for localization purposes, be sure to
substract
the number of words in the TOC and index.  These files are not counted
because they are generated from words and phrases (titles, for example)
that
are would already be translated when the vendor generates the TOC and
index
for the translated book.

Hi Esar,

You can do that with the BookInfo plugin:
