Well, after explicitly explaining what *I* can do and other alternatives, the editor came back and said she didn't want to do the alternatives, but asked, ...
Good job, Dawn. Try not to worry, too much. It seems to me there is usually a bunch of stuff going on behind the doors that we don't know anything about, and...

Hello people. I have the terms (all with subheadings): Korea-Japan Free Trade Agreement Korea, North Korea-Singapore Free Trade Agreement Korea, South The...
James, I would override the settings for the more logical and useful sort order, but I'd tell your contact what you did and why. It's the same thing to my...
... It does, if you regard the two trade agreement references as titles of works, which wouldn't be unreasonable. If you accept that, then section 7 of BS 1749...
Hi- I have Adobe Prof. and am trying to figure out how to copy and paste my search results for an author into Cindex. Other than copying and pasting line by...
Because I am receiving daily inquiries regarding the opening status of the UC Berkeley indexing course I have decided to post this general announcement. The...
... Your search is for an author's name? You only have to copy the name once, then duplicate the record for subsequent mentions. If you have subentries under...
She's got the same complaint I have. The issues is exactly those subsequent mentions. We do a search for XX in a PDF, and the Acrobat Professional software...
... Even at that, it shows you the relative page number for the document, not the actual physical page number. (Unless you know a way to make it do ...
... With some files, you can fix it by appending a blank page or two at the start. For instance, suppose your file starts with page 3 and Acrobat shows it as...
... I'm talking books with multiple PDFs, one per chapter. Physical pages may run 1-1000, but individual chapters all start at relative page 1. There is a...
... Right. It "says" it can do page numbers in actual (first sheet of paper in the book) or in logical (matching what the book calls page 1 orders). The Number...
... Hi Dick, Even before I got the Acrobat Pro version, I would trot all those single chapter PDFs down to Kinkos and put them into one proper book. If anyone...
... I'm not familiar with a Number Pages command in Preferences. In 6.0, you can number pages by clicking the Page tab on the left of the screen, then "Number...
... Why go to Kinko's? Even under 5.0 it was just a matter of opening the first PDF then inserting all subsequent ones. ... FWIW, I wouldn't necessarily want a...
(offlist) I see the Pages tab, but the Options pull-down only allows me to print, or reduce or enlarge thumbnails. I use a Mac, but I thought Acrobat was...
... I have a PC version and I know there are some differences with the Mac, but couldn't say if that is one. My Options list has 14 items, with Number Pages...
... Of the Acrobat READER? ... Yep, you're right. We do different kinds of indexing, don't we. If I am indexing, say, "atonement", some variation of that...
I hope someone who indexes a lot of science books will give me some advice. I don't usually work on books that have a lot of scientific names, but this current...
This is just a guess. Take a look at some of the other section headings that are not scientific names. Are they in italics? If so, then the scientific names...
With version 6 of Acrobat Reader you can search all the documents in a subdirectory as if they were a single document. You get a single list of finds down the...
I wrote that last night when I was very, very tired. You are correct, thanks for bringing that to my attention. I was starting to get very confused, and...
Hi all, Well, I have put up my science book index for a while to work on a book about sports psychology! The preface, which is to be indexed, starts out with...
Well, my big scholarly indexing project has been going swimmingly, until I hit the present chapter. I'm not sure how to approach it. The chapter takes a...
