Hi Ann,

The single most important requirement for producing Tables
of Contents in DBT braille files, is to ensure that you have
used appropriate Heading Styles throughout your document.
That is to say Styles "h1.", "h2." and "h3.".  Without any
of those, you will basically generate a blank TOC.

As regards the Levels field, you MUST have an entry there,
and for what you describe, this should be "1", and your
document should also be using the "h1." Style for Chapter
Headings.

Aside from that, the BANA default is for Print page numbers,
so you would have to use a Custom TOC if you wish Braille
page numbers.

George.

Subject: [duxuser] Question about the table of contents
generator



What is the easiest and most foolproof way to use the table
of contents generator?  I have never gotten the nack of it
and need to train on it.
Do the items in the table need to have a particular code
associated with them before starting the process?  Where is
the cursor placed to begin the process?  In the custom field
indicating levels from 1 to 99,, can I just erase the 99 or
does something have to be in that field?  I am just doing a
single level table, chapter name and braille page number.
