You don't have to create an index for task 03, but it wouldn't hurt to know how to do it.
A table of contents, however, is a requirement.
Use this document, Two Years Before The Mast by Richard Henry Dana, to practice the tools we discussed today.
Let's add an image of the author to the title page. Use this image of Dana (as he is supposed to have looked during the time he was a sailor.) Copy the image and past it in right after the author's name on the title page.
Did it work out as you wanted it to?
Note that the image appeared where we told it to appear - as a text object immediately after the final letter in Dana and immediately before the end of paragraph markup. Let's correct that by placing the image on a new line by itself - enter a new paragraph break immediately prior to the image object. Look at the new page in the Print Preview View to see if this is how we want it to look.
That image was formatted as if it were a text object - its wrapping was in line with text.
Use your cntl+f tool to find the first instance of the word "Asitka". It should be in Chap. XXVI. Immediately before the word "Asitka" insert a five pointed star from the AutoShapes part of the drawing toolbar.
Right click on the star to format the object.
[top]
First, go to the start of the first paragraph in Chap. XXXIV. At that point, insert this map.
You now have two objects in the same location.
You have some text formatted as Heading 3 called Index at the end of the document.
For the Index tool to work, it must read marked up text.
This will reveal the Mark Index Entry dialog box.
Try it with these words - Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Santa Barbara, Monterey, Boston, and Cape Horn.
Now that you have your document marked up for the index tool, create an index.
Now we need to wrap it up with a table of contents. Again here, the table of contents tool looks for markup in the document and uses the markup it sees. The index tool looked for words we marked up. The table of contents tool looks for styles we have incorporated into the document.
So, now we create a table of contents.
Select the OK button and your table of contents is created and installed. But is this what we really want?
Run the table of contents tool again, but this time have it display only one level, only the parts of the document formatted as heading 1. In other words, have the table of contents tool read all the objects formatted as heading 1 and display the name of the object and its location in the document in the table of contents.
Are we done? Did the introduction of a table of contents throw off the page numbering?
If the pages need renumbering, the update will renumber them. Did any of them need renumbering?
