The only property of the TOC itself is whether it is an Online or Book TOC. You can also right click to auto-create a TOC. There is an Auto-Create icon that will create a TOC based on your folder structure. Any underscores in the folder name will be removed in the TOC. If you drag a folder, it will bring all that folders topics and create a section with the folder name, it can be changed in Properties. You can also drag from the Contents panel. TopicsĬlick the left icon in the toolbar to add the topics. Beware of having too many levels as that can get frustrating for users. You can use the arrow icons on the toolbar to create sections within sections and have as many levels of nesting as you require for your online outputs. If you want the section linked to a topic, that can be done in the Section properties. To add a section, click the right icon and enter the required name.
The easiest way to think of these is to think of them is as nested books in older versions. Sections enable you to group your topics in the way you want your users to see them. Online TOCsĪbove the blank TOC, you will see these icons that let you add topics and sections. After you click Done and Save, the icon in the TOC panel will change. Right click the TOC in the left panel and select Duplicate, then right click the duplicate and select Properties where you can change the type. If you want to set up more than one TOC, you can duplicate an existing TOC and, if required, change the type. TOCs upgraded from earlier versions, Classic or 2019 New UI, will automatically be set to be online TOCs but you can change that by right clicking the TOC name and changing the type.
Setting Up a TOCĪccording to how you want to work, set up one or both types by clicking the + icon to display the New Table of Contents dialog.

Whilst sections can be indented, you must be aware that the names of indented sections will not show in a Word output and may not show in a PDF output depending on the options you choose.īoth are described in more detail in Book TOCs below.Book TOCs enable Front and Back Matter to be included.These are meant for the PDF and Word outputs. The books are now known as sections and can be nested in the same way as in Classic versions. These are clearly meant for any online output, frameless, responsive, CHM and so on. Now two types of TOC can be set up, online and book. The changes do not radically change that but do remove the problems that many levels of nesting could cause in printed documents. You either had a separate TOC for online and print to avoid some of the problems or you used one TOC that worked in your scenario, maybe you didn't have many levels of nesting in the TOC. In Classic versions, there were two ways of working. That way book titles were all H1 style in line with the topic headings that followed.īecause of those issues, changes have been made. Click to see this example Click to see this example.įor those reasons the best solution in Classic versions was to create a TOC that flattened all the books to one level. However, it meant that the book name was in a lower level style than the following topic. If all your topics started in the usual way with the heading being set to the H1 style, that would be maintained and all books no matter what their level of nesting would also be H1. You could select a check box Maintain HTML Heading Levels.In Classic versions of Adobe RoboHelp that could be handled in one of two ways. Microsoft Word bases its TOC on heading levels. Of more practical relevance though is the issues it caused in Word outputs. Books in the real world do not contain other books.TOCs in the authoring world are made up of books that contain nested books that may also contain nested books.However, that created some issues with Word outputs. Previously there was one TOC structure that could be used for all types of output.
There is some degree of using online TOCs for PDF and Word outputs and using a book TOC for an online output. Online is for any output that will be viewed online, such as frameless, responsive and ePub.This is explained in The TOC Controls Your Outputs below.Īlso Adobe RoboHelp now structures the TOC in different ways for Online and Book outputs. That does not mean users have to see all topics in the TOC. The key thing to understand is that anything that is to be included in the build must be in the TOC. In Adobe RoboHelp the TOC controls to what goes into your build. See Bits and Pieces for in-topic Mini TOCs.
