Print or output a book file
One advantage of using a book file is that you can use a single command to output—for print, preflight, package, or
export to PDF—selected booked documents or the entire book. You can find more information about printing and
outputting InDesign files in InDesign Help.
1 In the Book panel, do one of the following:
• To output specific documents, select the desired documents.
• To output the entire book, make sure no documents are selected.
2 Choose an output command (such as Print Book or Print Selected Documents) in the Book panel menu.

Creating a table of contents
About tables of contents
A table of contents (TOC) can list the contents of a book, magazine, or other publication; display a list of illustrations,
advertisers, or photo credits; or include other information to help readers find information in a document or book
file. One document may contain multiple tables of contents—for example, a list of chapters and a list of illustrations.
Each table of contents is a separate story consisting of a heading and a list of entries sorted either by page number or
alphabetically. Entries, including page numbers, are pulled directly from content in your document and can be
updated at any time—even across multiple documents in a book file.
The process for creating a table of contents requires three main steps. First, create and apply the paragraph styles
you’ll use as the basis for the TOC. Second, specify which styles are used in the TOC and how the TOC is formatted.
Third, flow the TOC into your document.
Table of contents entries can be automatically added to the Bookmarks panel for use in documents exported as
Adobe PDF.
Tips for planning a table of contents
Consider the following when planning a table of contents:
• Sometablesofcontentsarebuiltfromcontentthatdoesnotactuallyappearinthepublisheddocument,suchasa
list of advertisers in a magazine. To do this in InDesign, enter content on a hidden layer and include it when gener-
ating a TOC.
• You can load TOC styles from other documents or books to build new tables of contents with the same settings
and formatting. (You might need to edit an imported TOC style if the names of paragraph styles in the document
do not match those in the source document.)
• You can create paragraph styles for the table of contents’ title and entries, including tab stops and leaders, if
desired. You can then apply these paragraph styles when you generate the table of contents.
Dear manymanuals.pl Admin! my name’s Eric and for just a second, imagine this… - Someone does a search and winds up at manymanuals.pl. - They hang out for a minute to check it out. I’m interested… but… maybe… - And then they hit the back button and check out the other search results instead. - Bottom line – you got an eyeball, but nothing else to show for it. - There they go. This isn’t really your fault – it happens a LOT – studies show 7 out of 10 visitors to any site disap
Dear, Eric here with a quick thought about your website manymanuals.pl Owner! I’m on the internet a lot and I look at a lot of business websites. Like yours, many of them have great content. But all too often, they come up short when it comes to engaging and connecting with anyone who visits. I get it – it’s hard. Studies show 7 out of 10 people who land on a site, abandon it in moments without leaving even a trace. You got the eyeball, but nothing else. Here’s a solution for y
