How do I create a simple Make/Model Index File
-
Right-click > “Add Index” from the “Indexes” container
-
Give the index a name of “MakeModel” and include tow “Columns” called “Make” and “Model” (both “First Page Only”).
-
On the Caliper section’s table definition page, add a “Column Index Mapping” by selecting “Make” for the Column and the previously defined “Make” Index Alias. Repeat for “Model”.
-
“Create PDF” and you will now have a new file in the same directory as your
.aceprintfile called something like"Index-"<catalog name>"-MakeModel.txt" -
Copy this TOC index file to your “Data” subdirectory (where you keep all the source files for your catalog). This must be done each time you generate a new complete PDF so the catalog uses the updated information.
-
Create a new Section for your Table of Contents that uses the index file in your data directory (using the tutorial above).
