I got a new PC. After restoring apps and data, I had been indexing from a PDF. This morning I got around to reinstalling Dragon Naturally Speaking (DNS 8.0)....
Collective wisdom, After I submitted an index, the publisher decided to change things around. I have two volumes divided by chapters where some of the page ...
... 1:195-202<< First, are you able to find that group of entries on those pages? You can either do that by Find -- but that will involve patterns I don't do...

Hi, I am indexing (as a training exercise) a monograph on the Yoruba of Nigera. Several key terms are written with a diacritic -- that is, with a dot centered...
You might view my earlier post on this same subject; but perhaps it was in this list, but in Index-L or Indexers Discussion List--can't remember. In Cindex for...
I've never used the "Restore Down" button for this, although I constantly view Cindex and PDF files on the screen at the same time. In fact, after all these...

Your welcome. As a thank you, how about dropping the skinned cat saying! {:>} A cat lover--Charles Good Afternoon, Thank you thank you thank you. I really...
The book with the Greek has returned to haunt me. I have been waiting to hear about a page offset for the introduction, which was indexed. The problem is that,...
Did you see this in the help menu? If you have compound references containing letters and numbers, or even Roman numerals and month names, you will need to...
Sorry,I meant to ask if you ever used the matching pattern feature: I've just used Alter References (Tools menu) to convert my temporary pagination to final...
Hello - I doubt if there is any way of making Cindex 'alter' references in Roman numerals to allow for an offset. It would be necessary to convert the Roman...
Thanks, Naomi. I know how to have roman numerals ordered in the sort. That does not influence my problem. Frances Lennie confirmed that I cannot *alter* roman...
Thanks! I have gone through the temporary pagination process, which may well have worked, I'll give it a trial when I meet a pressing deadline on another book....
Thanks for a valid response. I appreciate unease about "lack of audit," but find "alter" to be both easy and powerful. I always keep a notebook and write down...
Hi, I can now tab below the page field in the Record window. How can I undo this? Thanks. Naomi *******Please note updated information below *********** J....
Hi, I cannot set my file to single space anymore. When I switch it to single space, all entries with no subs are single space. All entrie with sub-headings are...

The index was sent early yesterday. Beginning at the highest number, I just corrected by hand. The problem with changes beginning with the smallest number is...
Hello - I expect it wouldn't be too difficult to write a script in Perl or similar language to 'alter' Roman-numeral references, at least for simple cases. I...

While there's no two-key command, there is a three-key one -- Alt-C-S Notice the underline under the letter S on that Character menu. Since there's no other...

Actually, you can do this with a one-key command if you use a keyboard macro program such as QuicKeys and assign one of the Function keys (F1 through F12) to...
FYI, the Mac OS9 version had an easy keyboard command but it was dropped for OSX. I asked the Lennies about this and they said theyıd consider adding it back...
Thank you all for the help with the small caps. I knew about the Alt and the S, but that didn't work because I didn't know to key the C (for Character menu, I...
