Creating Multiple TOCs in One Book

[Rick Quatro]

Conceptually, sub-books--each containing their own TOC--should work, but
when you make a PDF from the master book, the generated files in each
sub-book don't appear in the PDF. I haven't figured out why, but have
confirmed it in my tests.

You could put each language in one file and create a local TOC in each file.
You also might be able to use subbooks and make TOCs for each subbook, but
I've never used subbooks, so I don't know if seperate TOCs per subboks exist
in FM.

What is the best way to set up multiple TOCs in the same book? I have a book
containing 16 languages, with each language having its own TOC.  I need each
of the 16 TOCs to display Heading 1s and Heading 2s in their own language
only. I can generate multiple TOCs in my book, but my trouble is that each
TOC shows me ALL the Heading 1s and Heading 2s in my book, so I get all 16
languages in each TOC. I can easily delete them from each of the 16 TOC
files, but they come back every time I update the book. 

 

The only thing I can think of doing is changing my Paragraph Tags in each
language. So I'd have Heading 1_eng, Heading 1_fre, Heading 1_spa, etc. And
then I'd have to apply those to every heading 1 and 2 in every one of my
languages. That's a lot of work. There must be an easier way, right?

 

Thanks,

Alan
