Bookmark Word index

When I create PDFs using PDFMaker / Acrobat Pro 9, it converts TOC entries and footnote markers to clickable links but not index entries - is there any way to enable this?

Thanks Bill, yes I've created an index in Word but the links don't convert as they do for a table of contents.
In PDFmaker, enabling Create Bookmarks, Add Links, Convert cross-references, Convert footnotes, Enable advanced tagging, and all options on the Bookmarks tab doesn't have any effect.
Word doesn't build an index in quite the same way as a ToC (in Word itself the index entries aren't bookmarked) so I'm a bit pessimistic about this feature being in PDFMaker but it'd be nice if someone could confirm this. I've only tested in Word 2003 but I doubt 2007 works differently.

I want to import a MS Word Index into a .pdf file using Adobe Pro. How do I do that?

I want to import a MS Word Index into a .pdf file using Adobe Pro. It is for a book. The book has been converted to a .pdf for printing, but it needs an Index for the last page of the book. I tried to embed a new index (starting from scratch but no luck. Any suggestions? Thank you for your time.

Now I want to search this "myArrayStrings.get(r)" in another file. How to do that?Store the returned String. Do the same thing you did to read the first file to read the second file (i.e. read it in line-by-line and store the lines in a list). Then check if that list contains the String you stored from the first list.
E.g. (using your code):
String name = myArrayStrings.get(r); // assuming r is initialized somewhere before this
if ( otherList.contains( name ) ) { // assuming otherList is your second list
// do something
}

Need script to export Indesign to word and keep word index codes

Hi,
I have a document and the index was created by importing word docs with indexentries. Now the client wants to revise the book and wants the text converted back to Word, but he wants to keep the orginal word index codes. Is that possible? Exporting as tagged text results in showing the index codes, but also much other codes which are not needed.
Would be greatfuull for some tips, or preferable a script that does the trick.
kind regards

What were you going to do with this Tagged Text file? That's only good for re-importing it back into InDesign.
Anyway, it doesn't require a script at all. I had the clever idea of testing this, and indeed: index entries in InDesign are exported in RTF.

How to import a Word index list into InDesign?

Hi - thanks Steve Werner -- but that link is broken -- could you tell us what that post said?
I have a Word doc with an index, and I'd like to keep it when importing into InDesign, and be able to regenerate the index in InDesign with the correct page numbers -- is this possible?
Is there maybe a handy script that can be used?
thank you

Does the newest RH have the output-to-Word index bug?

Before wasting any more time trying to get the 12 pages of
index to match the 450plus-page document, or learning to, in a few
days, how to manually index a large Word doc, does the new releases
of RH index outputs PROPERLY? Just upgrading may be the simplest
thing (here in the Corporate world) than figuring it out on my own.
Please let me know ASAP!

First I want to thank Peter Grange for taking the time to
assist. Even on the weekend! Thanks again Peter!
Problem solved - yes Harvey, I even took my level 4 headings
to level 2. This helped, but not completely; that's not the
solution. Here's what I did.
I bailed out of RoboHelp. (!)
I just could not make it make sense and then started studying
more on Word's index, and the information available online.
For example, Towson University has a great PDF on Concordance
Files in Word.
Procedure to get a workable index in Word:
1. Use RH to generate an index. Edit and manipulate as needed
2. Output entire job in to Word.
3. Review and confirm Word document.
4. Took the Word index, copied to new file, stripped out the
page numbers and made a 2 column table of it.
5. Copied column 1 to column 2 (second colum can be used to
change actual index text display).
6. Created a concordance with that data, that will later be
entered into Word's "Index, AutoMark" as a file.
7. Closed Word - no need to save document.
8. Went back to RH and reloaded the Job.
9. Completely delete all index entries and save this way (no
index).
10. Again output this job to Word.
11. Open document in Word.
12. Now do my usual RH induced need-to-repaginate (because of
image bug) and add necessary page breaks.
13. Go to Word's Index feature and enter concordance file,
and place index where desired.
14. Add header that says "Index:" ( or whatever you want to
heading the Index with.)
15. Repaginate TOC and Index and "Whallah"! All page numbers
now match the TOC and Index.
Plus now the index is keyed to the PAGE not the TOPIC!

PDFMaker 9 adding bookmarks to Word index markers

Hi folks,
I recently updated to Acrobat 9.5.1 and am seeing an odd, annoying problem. I use Microsoft Word 2007 to create a document with a non-standard heading style called "Message Bar." When I make my PDF, I ask PDFMaker to create a Level 3 bookmark for this style. This has worked well, without a hitch for several years.
In recent document updates, however, PDFMaker appears to be picking up the index marker that sits next to the Message Bar heading and creating a separate bookmark. Curiously enough, it also adds consecutive numbering at the front of the bookmark, so that the first "index bookmark" is 1b<Message>, the second is 2b<DifferentMessage> and so on, through the document (and there are close to 1000 of these messages). After doing that, the normal bookmarks for this style are also listed. Both bookmarks point to the same (correct) location in the PDF doc.
In the PDF preferences, the only headings/styles checked for bookmarks are Heading 1, Heading 2 and Message Bar.
As a quick workaround, I deleted all the "index bookmarks" in Acrobat Pro and moved the standard bookmarks (with no extraneous numbering) into the proper place. As we update the doc and PDF every couple of months, I hope I won't have to do this forever. Nor am I keen to move my index markers to another line (or style).
Is this a bug? Has anyone else seen something like this? Google didn't turn anything up. Appreciate any advice.

Thanks Bill, yes I've created an index in Word but the links don't convert as they do for a table of contents.

Problem with creating bookmarks (word- pdf)

Index entries between section number and heading in my word document prevent the creation of the section number in the PDF bookmarks.
I'm using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro (9.4.5) and Microsoft Word 2007.
Does anyone know the problem, and more importantly, does anyone have a solution?
Thanks in advance.
Manuel

What version of WORD and Acrobat? I just ran PDF Maker with WORD 2007 and AA8 and turned off the headings 3 that were in the document and they did not show up in the bookmarks.

Unwanted bookmarks, word 2007

Hi,
I'm using Word 2007 and the trial version von Acrobat Pro 9 V9.3.0 in Windows 7 (all german versions).
I created a word document with many headings (heading 1 to 5).
I want to convert this doc into a pdf file, but I only want the headings 1 and 2 to be converted into bookmarks in the pdf file. I used the settings window to deselect every item except "heading 1" and "heading 2" (in the bookmarks tab) before I created the pdf file. As a result I got a pdf file with bookmarks down to level 5, not only heading 1 and 2 as I expected.
I appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance.
Regards.
Alex

I have a similar issue. Using all the same software: Word 2007, Windows 7, Adobe Acrobat 9.3.
Bookmarks are created in Acrobat based on my selections in the Preferences menu in MS Word 2007. But they do not jump appropriately; some appear at the top of the page, some in the middle, some with space preceeding and with differing spaces. And I can't distinguish a pattern.
I also have a numeric character string that's inserted before a StyleRef built into to my Word headers. I've never seen this one before.
Please help! I'm on a deadline, have found nothing in online searches or Adobe help/manuals, and am feeling quite helpless. Crossing fingers and saying prayers not yet producing results...

RH11 - Tabs missing in Word Index

I have just upgraded from RH10 to RH11. Upon upgrading a project and publishing a Word document in RH11 I see that the index entries are now missing the tab between the item and the page number.
This is how the Word document looked in RH10
This how it now appears in RH11. No changes have been made to any of the previous RH10 settings (i.e CSS or Word Template).
The Word template still contains the tab setting for the Index style but the actual tab is not being inserted when the document is generated. Am I missing a setting somewhere or is this a bug?
Thanks,
Chris

Hi Peter,
No, this issue has not been resolved. I have not had time to raise a bug report as yet, but will do soon.
The issue seems to be be in the Edit Field/Index dialog box in MS Word. In RH10 when a document was generated the 'Right align page numbers' box was checked, in RH11 it is left unchecked.
Unfortunately, it is not as simple as just checking this box to fix the issue. When the box is checked the field code that adds the heading letter for each index group (e.g A, B, C etc) is removed,so this has to be manually added back in. It also upsets the section break before the Index changing it from an 'Odd' section break to a 'Continuous' break.
Cheers,
Chris

Bookmark word

bonjour,
j'ai des difficultés avec le toolkit "insérer une image de commande dans rapport word". En effet j'ai un rapport préformaté auquel je souhaite insérer un graphe. Le problème c'est que j'ai à chaque fois "invalid bookmark" qui apparait. J'ai essayé avec le rapport d'une autre personne (préformaté également) avec le même programme et ça marche. Dans ce cas peut-on m'expliquer comment cela fonctionne y'a t-il une manipulation à faire dans le document sous word?.... Merci pour votre aide.

Bonjour,
Pourriez-vous préciser quelle version de LabVIEW vous utilisez et envoyer un VI reproduisant le problème ainsi que deux rapports word préformatés: un avec lequel ça marche et un avec lequel l'erreur apparait.
Celà devrait me permettre de reproduire le problème et de travailler sur la question.
Cordialement,

Bookmark words in dictionary

Why is such an option not provided?? Any work around that will enable me to bookmarks certain words in dictionary so that I can go through them easily later on..

Sounds reasonable.
Something strange happened: I renamend my DE file, wrote a name that was unknown to Spell and chose Learn Spelling. As expected, a new DE file was created. I deleted the new DE file, quit and relaunched Pages — and Pages still knows the spelling! I searched my HD for other places whre AppleSpell could safe the information but found nothing.
Regarding opening the custom spelling files: I got best results with (Aqua)Emacs. Emacs displays the delimiter (^@) between the words which appear to be lined up in Textedit.

Word index

Hi.
Can some one point me in the right direction:
I want to know what is the index of a word (according to the page) where the cursor is at (mouse or word selection cursor)
I have the mouse page position in X Y, can I extract the index of the word in this X Y.
I have already tried with noXYSort list, but I cant really retrive the X Y of words from this list.
Do I need to do some thing like a selection rectangular around the mouse curser and find the word with in?
Thanks.

I dont understand why this works:
     AVDoc currentAVDoc = AVAppGetActiveDoc();
     PDDoc currentPDDoc = AVDocGetPDDoc(currentAVDoc);
     PDPage pdPage = PDDocAcquirePage (currentPDDoc, 1);
          PDTextSelectRangeRec rec;
          rec.end = 12;
          rec.ofsEnd = 0;
          rec.ofsStart = 0;
          rec.start = 10;
          PDTextSelect textSelection = PDTextSelectCreateRanges(pdPage,&rec,1);
          AVDocSetSelection(currentAVDoc, ASAtomFromString("Text"), (void *)textSelection, true);
          AVDocShowSelection (currentAVDoc);
          PDPageRelease (pdPage);
But this dose not:
     AVDoc currentAVDoc = AVAppGetActiveDoc();
     PDDoc currentPDDoc = AVDocGetPDDoc(currentAVDoc);
     PDPage pdPage = PDDocAcquirePage (currentPDDoc, 1);
     ASFixedRect rec2;
          rec2.bottom = 0;
          rec2.left = 0;
          rec2.right = 1000;
          rec2.top = 1000;
     PDTextSelect      textSelection = PDDocCreateTextSelect(currentPDDoc,1,&rec2);
     AVDocSetSelection(currentAVDoc, ASAtomFromString("Text"), (void *)textSelection, true);
     AVDocShowSelection (currentAVDoc);
     PDPageRelease (pdPage);

Words containing national characters (hungarian) are not indexed

I created a table data source that contains text in a CLOB field, and added it to the sample UltraSearch query application.
I created few lines in this table and run the index building.
The demo is now able to search in the clob field.
If the text contains at least one hungarian national character
(example éíöü...)
then the containing word will be not indexed.
I couldn't find the word in
dr$wk$doc_path_idx$i
table.
The other words without national characters are there.
example:
Ez egy teszt szöveg
words indexed:
Ez
egy
teszt
word not indexed:
szöveg

Also problem:
I set the default language to this data source Hungarian.
I think this will be applied to all the documents in the source.
select count(t.lang)
from wk$doc t
where t.lang = 'hu'
5
This works fine.
I created a new record in the table with the following text:
Ez itt most egy teszt szöveg.
If I try to search the text
most
it will be not found.
It is an english stopword
see:
select count(*) from ctx_user_index_values t where t.ixv_value = 'most' and t.ixv_class = 'STOPLIST'
1
This word means 'now' and has nothing to do with this stopword.
Is it a bug or am I missed something?

Bookmarks and Search Engine Indexing

How do you allow a user to bookmark a page or a search engine to index a page?
I am new to JSF and I am trying to decide whether to go forward with it. The company I am doing work for is requiring that their site can be bookmarked and search engines can index it. I think that most every site would want this. I understand that there are certain pages you do not want bookmarked, like a shopping cart or a muti page form, but item pages, article pages and so on should be allowed to be bookmarked. I think I understand how JSF handles URLs and understand how the first request of a page is handled. With this, I do not see anyway a particular page can be bookmarked or indexed.
For instance, this page in JSF would not be able to be bookmarked or indexed. I have seen many other posts regarding this, but I have not seen any solutions.
I did see an idea about placing query strings in a URL:
� /article.jsp?article=383276
would be something like
� /article-383276/article.jsf
but there looks like there would be issues creating an ArticleBean on the first request and then accessing it.
I am also not sure how you would map /article-383276/article.jsf to /article.jsp, being that you would have many different URLs and then getting the URL in the address bar to reflect which article you were at.
/article-383276/article.jsf
/article-245621/article.jsf
/article-145845/article.jsf
and so on
I have also seen there are issues regarding the use of redirect.
I would sure like to use JSF on this project, but this limitation may make it impossible.
Thanks,
Warren

JSF pages accept arguments passed as part of URL via param.foo

Can't keep IndexIX tag in bookmarks lists

For some reason, some of my book files do not seem to have any "knowledge" of the IndexIX paragraph tag, which I need for creating PDF files from a FM book (so it will go in the bookmarks list), and also for when I generate a TOC, because I want to include the index chapter in the TOC.
If I start with a book file that doesn't have the IndexIX tag in either of the bookmark lists (include or don't include tag), I have no idea how to add it. I can't find anything about that in the help files and I spent a lot of time looking.
I found a workaround, which is to copy a book file from some other book that shows the IndexIX tag in the include or don't-include list. I delete all the FM files from the book file, and then I add the files from the current book I'm working on. This book file does reference the IndexIX tag. I rename the book file for the current book title, and I'm set.
However, even that workaround isn't working today. The IndexIX tag is there at first (because it was in the book file that I copied), but after I add some files to the book, it suddenly disappears. I haven't figured out what exactly is causing that. But there must be a normal way to add a paragraph tag to a book file!
OK, here's the part I dread: telling you all which version of FM I have. It's version 8. I don't have any control over that at the moment (my employer makes that decision), and I really need to fix this problem now, so I hope there's someone here who won't tell me you're not supporting version 8 any more. I know that, but I'm hoping someone reading this will have encountered this problem before and knows what to do.
I'm running FM on a Windows 8 system. I don't think compatibility is an issue, though, because I've had this problem with the IndexIX tag for years. After I used the workaround, I just kept updating the same books, which were derived from the previous versions, all of which had IndexIX. But now I'm creating a new book and the problem has resurfaced.
Thank you!

Hi Arnis,
Thanks for the reply. I don't think I explained my problem very well.
I do know how to create a standard index, how to put markers in the material, and how to use different levels of references. Usually, after I create the index, I then create the TOC. I do it in that order so that the index is listed in the TOC. But for that to happen, I need to include the paragraph tag for the word "Index," which is the title of the index chapter (along with Chap Num, Appendix, and other tags I want in the TOC). The tag for that title is "IndexIX". This works fine in several of the books I manage, but in some cases, I can't seem to keep the IndexIX tag in the list of tags to include in the TOC. At some point, that tag disappears from the list of known tags in the current book. I have no idea why that happens - I haven't removed the index from the book file, so the tag should still be there.
Here's the dialog box I'm referring to. It is posted when I select Add -> Table of Contents from the book file:
In the above example, I had already created an index, and the title (or chapter name), "Index," is tagged as "IndexIX." This tag is in the list of tags to be included in the TOC.
But in some cases - and I can't figure out why - when I create an index in a book in the exact same way that I always do it, that tag doesn't show up in the "Don't Include" list when I create the TOC.
The only workaround I've come up with is to copy a book file from another book in which the IndexIX tag is present and works correctly, delete the files in that book file, and add the files for the current book into the copied book file. The IndexIX tag is still in the list. I can then create a TOC that has the index listed. At least, this has worked in the past. I haven't needed to do this for a few years, but I am now creating a new book that needs an index, and this time, even my workaround doesn't work. Anyway, there ought to be a more straightforward way of getting the index listed in the table of contents.
I hope this makes more sense!
Thanks,
Joyce Wermont
