Renumbering footnotes in each chapter in indesign cc 2014

I recently imported a Word document comprising a book into InDesign CC 2014. All the footnotes transferred over correctly, but when I try to make the numbering restart at the beginning of each Chapter, nothing happens. Can anyone help?

You can:
(1) Divide each chapter into a separate story (i.e., break the text
thread between the end of the last chapter and the new chapter). Then
your footnotes will begin at 1 for each chatper. This is what I would
recommend.
(2) Assign a new section in the pages palette at the beginning of each
chatper, and set your footnote numbering to restart with each section.
The disadvantage of this is that if your text reflows, the sections
won't be in the right place any more.

How renumber footnotes at the beginning of each chapter?

Hi!
I work in Indesign 6 with very large books in which the author continually add text and pages make me travel pages, each chapter should begin with footnote number 1.
If I do with these sections do not move when I add pages and I have to update a one to hand.
You could do something by script?
Thank you very much in advance

Endnotes restarting each chapter

I have placed a word document into CS5 InDesign and the story endnotes are continuous throughout the document (ie. 1 - 1100). I need them to restart at each chapter (this is how they are displayed in the original word document). Why are they converting to continuous endnotes and is there a way to change them back?

InDesign doesn't support endnotes at all. They are all "converted" to plain text. In addition, the original numbering in Word is not honoured -- InDesign is really really bad with all sorts of notes.
So it would seem you need to manually adjust them. Check out http://www.kahrel.plus.com/indesign/footnotes.html, perhaps there is a tool in there that can help you.

When exporting to epub, only about 1/3 of my chapters are getting the page breaks. Each chapter is in its own doc, and I've tried splitting it apart by doc. and by H1, with no luck. HELP

All my paragraph styles seem to jive, and no matter what I do, most of my chapters seem to miss their page breaks. I've heard of others having this issue with older versions of Indesign, but I'm on CC2014, and I thought that should be fixed by now. I really don't want to have to learn HTML code and go break open the epub doc to fix it manually, because that doesn't always work across all devices either. I know others have to of run into this problem before. What am I doing wrong?

Make sure the paragraph style applied to the chapter title (if that's the first line of each chapter) is tagged. Open the paragraph style and go to Export Tagging and check Split Document (epub only). Then when you export (assuming you are using reflowable) under General>Split Document check Based on Paragraph Style Export Tags. Try it and let us know if this helps.

Table of content, I want to display just the image for each chapter and the name of the chapter. my book is not landscape format but each time I draging a picture into a specific chapter it duplicate it to all chapters why?

why? how can i overcome it?

Are you using Microsoft word? Microsoft thinks the users are idiots. They put up a lot of pointless messages that annoy & worry users. I have seen this message from Microsoft word. It's annoying.
As BDaqua points out...
When you copy information via edit > copy, command + c, edit > cut, or command +x, you place the information on the clipboard. When you paste information, edit > paste or command + v, you copy information from the clipboard to your data file.
If you edit > cut or command + x and you do not paste the information and you quite Word, you could be loosing information. Microsoft is very worried about this. When you quite Word, Microsoft checks if there is information on the clipboard & if so, Microsoft puts out this message.
You should be saving your work more than once a day. I'd save every 5 minutes. command + s does a save.

Here's How to change the image on the TOC to be different for each chapter.

Suppose you don't follow the Very Strict default Rule that you use the exact same image parameters (shape, pixels, size, etc.) for your Table of Contents image entry as you use for its associated Chapter, a requirement built in to iBooks Author that applies universally to ALL Chapters under the One Image Size and Location is Best For Everyone rule. Suppose you start adding chapters and messing with each chapter's image and then, later, it occurs to you to get the TOC all set up and when you go there you encounter a mess. Either by chance one of the images you had in one of your chapters found its way to the TOC and, gosh, now every TOC entry for every chapter has the very same exact size and location image! This is not part of your grand plan and then... how to make lemonade here? It's Not Obvious.
You can resolve this in your favor. You must do this patiently.
First, whatever image size is created in any chapter TOC window—by dragging the image placeholder handle re-size box—will apply to ALL image entries (i.e., chapter image entries) in the TOC . If you want maximum flexibility make the image placeholder box big. Hint: you may need to mess with the Edit Mask option in order to get the image placeholder size box in the size and location you want. An option here in preparing your images is to **** with Photoshop or Preview to really engineer the images that will be used for the Chapter Page and, separately, the TOC / these could be the same content images but formatted differently in order to look nice in their respective locations. The Chapter Page image can be manipulated on the Chapter Page. On the other hand, the TOC image must fit within whatever (universal) size you've created.
Plan ahead
Get your TOC images ready.
Loop until done:
a) from the Finder menu, right click on the filename of the image to be put in the TOC / select the menu item “Copy”..this image. This puts the image in the clipboard. Another way to get the image in the clipboard is to pull it up with Preview and pretend to crop it (full size) then command-C. Another way: just click on it if it is in a file somewhere and again command-C.
b) Click on the Table of Contents option (near the top of the left navigation column in ibooks Author ) and navigate to the TOC chapter for this image by clicking on the correct chapter “button” (a white dot in a black background surrounded by a white rounded-corner box) in the center bottom of the TOC chapter window;
c) Click on the image placeholder in this chapter TOC window to reveal the highlight boxes defining the boundary of the image;
d)command-V (paste); Voila! the image is in the TOC. NOTE: dragging the image into the highlighted imagebox (see c) above) will NOT work.
e) mess with the image by clicking the mask editor button so the image fits as desired being careful to move the image only and not resize the image box.
Go back to loop and repeat.

Finally, after a while, I finally found all the procedure explained,

My iBook has a blank page at the beginning of each chapter. How do I delete?

I have a blank page offset to the left at the beginning of each chapter. How do I delete them?

The first selectable template is "Basic"... the template - and any others have placeholder text and images excepting pages "Default" and Blank. The "Default" page accepts flowing text. "Blank" is just that with only any BG image and page numbering decided in the template.
Nothing you describe seems to be part of just opening a standard template.
Below are screen shots from the book tree and the layouts - these are the "Basic" template pages without any modifications.
Any of the pages shown in the tree can be deleted. Chapter and Sections will also delete any pages added under them.

Problems converting PDF to MS Word document. I successfully converted 4 files and now subsequent files generate a "conversion failure" error when attempting to convert the file. I have a large manuscript and I separated each chapter to assist with the conversion; like I said, first 4 parts no problem, then conversion failure. I attempted to convert the entire document and same result. I specifically purchased the export to Word feature. Please assist. I initially had to export the Word Perfect document into PDF and attempting to go from PDF to MS Word.

Hi sdr2014,
I'm sorry to hear your conversion process has stalled. It sounds as though the problem isn't specific to one file, as you've been unable to convert anything since the first four chapters converted successfully.
So, let's try this:
If you're converting via the ExportPDF website, please log out, clear the browser cache, and then log back in. If you're using Reader, please choose Help > Check for Updates to make sure that you have the most current version installed.
Please let us know how it goes.

Blu-ray disc burned with Encore CS4 stops after each chapter instead of reading continuously

Hi
Blu-ray disc burned with Encore CS4 stops after each chapter instead of reading continuously
This happens with an entire series of chapters but does not happen with another series of chapters on thre same DVD.
I am missing something to solve this issue.
Can anyone help?

Hi Jeff,
I just checked:
There is no override on the montage

DVD pauses at each chapter?

I created a Keynote presentation and exported it as an iDVD project from the export menu of Keynote. It exported into iDVD just fine and I burned the disc just fine but now when I go to play the DVD back, it pauses at the end of each chapter. I checked all the setting and I can't see where it's telling to to pause at the end of each chapter. Any ideas on how to turn this off so it won't pause?

I found the solution. Thanks for the feedback. I'm afraid this one was my own dumb settings in Keynote. Apparently when you choose to have a transition happen on a click, that will create a chapter break when you export it as a movie and pause that movie when you get to that slide.
I had two spots that it did this on. I fixed one because that one was a slide transition one but I missed the second one inside the slide. When I fixed both to happen automatically, the chapter break disappeared and the pause went away too. Now the movie is one single chapter with no pauses.
Other than that, the whole process worked flawlessly. Awesome presentation. Mark it as yet one more thing a Mac can do that a PC can't (recent switcher). I wanted to originally export a PowerPoint presentation to the DVD. It is a MAJOR amount of work using something like three or four different programs to accomplish it. Mac did it in two (both included with the system) with three clicks. Not bad...not bad at all.

End jump after each chapter

I have DSP 4.2.0
I want the DVD to jump back to the menu page after each chapter is finished.
Can someone direct me on how to do this? I tried under "connections" setting it up, but it didn't work.
Gerry

First off, there are three different layouts that you can use for DVDSP. The vast majority of people use the 'Advanced' layout which gives access to all of the tools and settings. Whilst it looks daunting, I recommend you switch to it. That way, you'll be seeing it the way others see it, and the instructions will make more sense to you.
You can add commands to lots of elements in your project. If you have a single video in your timeline and have put chapter markers along it, you can set an 'end jump' on each chapter marker by simply clicking on the marker once and looking in the property inspector for the 'end jump' setting. Use this to set each to go back to the main menu when it has played through.
However, this will not be the most reliable way to get this done. It will work on some players, but users will be able to skip through the track and bypass the end jumps. You can prevent this if you want, but an easier and more robust way to achieve this is to use stories.
If you look on the top bar of the app you'll see icons that enable you to add new elements to your project. Adding a story is as simple as clicking on the story icon.
A story is a container for chapters, and works like a play list in iTunes. You can add one or more chapters to the story, but in your case you only want to add one per story. Stories are also elements in your project and they can have end jumps on them. You add a story, and then in the story tab drag a single chapter from the list of chapters into the story container. You repeat this for every story you need. Then set the end jumps for the stories - click on a story in the outline view tab or graphical view and look in the property inspector... set the end jump for each story to go back to your menu.
The buttons on the menu now need to have the story container as the target and NOT the chapter inside them. This is crucial.
If you do this correctly it will work as you want it to, with just a single chapter playing and then the disc sending the viewer back to the menu.

Repeated pages at the end of each chapter on Ibooks

I have downloaded 2 books to both my Ipad and my Iphone. On my Iphone the last 5-8 pages of each chapter repeat. This problem is not on my Ipad. What can I do????

Same thing is happening to me! I read on my iphone during the day at work and then have to go back and read the pages i missed on my ipad when i get home (my ipad to too big to pull out in my cubicle...lol!). Here is the only response I got...simply delete and re-download it, and see if that fixes the issue. I'm going to give it a try...right after I finish this chapter! Good luck!

How to divide sections of a book, lock in each chapter

I'd like to divide the chapters of a book into separate sections primarily to lock in each chapter's starting page. This is so alterations of a few lines in preceding chapters don't push the next the next chapter out of place by a few lines.
Thank you.

"When you break the thread (click the outport of the last frame inthe chapter, then click inside the frame)"
Ok, I see that when I click the out port at the end of ch 1, the cursor becomes loaded. Clicking inside the frame, the outport turns to red and ch 2 onwards is no longer visible
"....at the end of the first chapter, the story will go into overset and you will have two sets of threaded frames -- one with the first chapter showing, and the frames beyond that will now be empty, but still threaded to one another."
Yes.
"You cut chapter two along with all the rest of the text to the end of the book from the first thread,"
Ch 2 and the rest of the book onwards are longer visible; how do I cut it?
"....then paste into the empty frames and it will reflow to fill them all again."
I can't try that without following the preceding step correctly.
Thank you.

Export each chapter as one H.264 file

Hi friends
I´ve made a project in Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5 (using Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bits). The length of the project is about 2 hours.
I´ve already divided the timeline into 20 chapters (in order to use in Encore when creating the DVD or Blu-Ray).
Now I´d like to publish a copy of this project to Youtube. But 2 hours is too length for one video. I thought I could separate the project into it´s 20 chapters. So I upload to youtube 20 files...the chapters.
My question is: Is there any way to order Adobe Premiere to export each chapter as one H.264 file suitable for Youtube (using the Youtube Widescreen HD preset)?
What´s the best way to do it?
Thank you for the help
Best Regards
Gustavo.

Gustavo,
There are three ways that a Reply gets the Correct, and Helpful answers, and two are almost the same.
The OP can make those assignments, so long as they had originally marked their post as a question. This can be done at any time, and is greatly encouraged, as it help the Adobe Forum Team. See this article: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1058744?tstart=30 Also, there is the often overlooked "Was this helpful? Yes No," that helps in gathering data. I do not think that those contribute to a poster's "points," but do help the Adobe Forum Team determine how well the forums are working. Anyone can mark those, and I encourage anyone, coming to a thread, to take a moment, and do that, especially if a Reply helped them too. Those can be marked, regardless of the Correct, or Helpful marks, and go into a slightly different database.
A MOD, with MOD privileges in that particular Forum, can mark Replies. Also, one might have MOD privileges in one Forum, but not others.
An Adobe Administrator, with full privileges can mark Replies.
Usually a MOD will not do that marking, while a thread is active, but perhaps with the push to get data for the Adobe Forum Team, a MOD, knowing that the answers were correct, did the marking? That is but a guess.
Good luck,
Hunt

Footnote problem in Indesign CC 2014

I started to use Indesign CC 2014. The last line of the footnotes in my old files I opened with this latest version don't sit on the bottom of the frame.
Can anyone help me?

This is another example. A footnote between ordinary text lines. I fixed the problem by resetting the paragraph style to base. But I don't know the source of the problem.
