table of content

R

Rob

Using styles (Heading 1, etc) in Word (any version) allows me to create
a TOC very simply.

I cannot find a way to create a table of content automatically in
Publisher (2003), for instance by applying styles.
Am I missing something or have they just left out this option?

Don't want to create a TOC manually in a 200 page document....

TIA - Rob

The bad news is you will have to create the TOC manually. Publisher is a page layout
application. Word is better suited for what you are doing.

That _really_ is bad news because we swapped to Publisher because page
layout is easier to accomplish. Hmmm...

Maybe we should opt for InDesign???

Thanks anyway for your response - Rob

Rob,

A cheaper alternative would be Serif PagePlus. It is much like Pub as
far as tools go (though it does create a pdf without the need for a
third-party program) and it does a TOC as well as an Index.

Mike,

what about footnotes? Can't find these either in Pub. Does Serif PP have
footnotes?

Rob, if you choose Edit > Edit Story in Word to create Footnotes and TOC's
for Publisher publications.

Unless you have more than one story in your publication...

Brian,

my attempts to create a footnote fail. I type text in Publisher, select
the text box, point to Edit > Edit Story in Word and add a footnote.
After that (in Word) File > Close & Return to Publication.

And then...the footnote has disappeared. Can't make it work in Pub 2002
nor 2003.
