Index formatting from source text

J

I have another question about creating an index. The formatting in the index
picks up on whatever the formatting is in the source text. So if the source
text is bold, so is the index entry; if it's italics, so is the index entry;
same with underlining. I am using the switches in some of my marking to turn
the page number to bold or italic, but sometimes the whole line picks up on
the source formatting, which really throws off the use of any marker
formatting. Is there a way to tell the index not to use the formatting from
the source text?

Thanks.

The only solution is to remove the source formatting (Ctrl+Spacebar) from
the XE fields.

Note that in order to show the XE fields (and edit their formatting), you
will have to display hidden text.

Thanks Stefan, yes I was aware of that.

I tried removing the formatting from the fields and it works fine! Thanks
again!
