Creating Multiple TOCs in One Book

[Jeff Coatsworth]

Arnis over on the forums suggested working from the bottom up on these book of books scenarios - create the generated matter in the sub-books first & then do the top level book last. Have you done that & still have no success Rick?

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
