The Process Manual

INDEXING An index is a listing at the end of your yearbook that shows where each student or staff member is pictured and mentioned in the yearbook. For most people, the most important part of the yearbook is their own photo. The index gives them a convenient place to easily find exactly where they are pictured in the book. Your index should be part of the last shipment of pages you send to Walsworth. Index as many proofed pages as you can before you finalize your book. Once you have sent in those pages, keep track of any proof corrections you make that might affect your index. You can then make those corrections to your index when those files come back on proof. INDEX Walsworth’s Index plug-in is software that guides you step by step through the indexing process, from scanning your InDesign documents for names to creating your index text to placing it on the page. The Index Builder gives you the opportunity to upload a master list on first use, or you can wait until your portrait data is available and base your index upon it. Both ways will speed your indexing process, which scans your selected InDesign documents for word groupings of at least two consecutive words that begin with a capital letter. When creating and editing your index, always work from proofed pages. Make copies of the files and move them to your computer desktop or hard drive. Once your index is complete, the Index flowing function also gives you the option of customizing the design of your index pages by the number of columns and images on the page and layout. Uploading a master list If a master list has not been loaded prior to using the Index plug-in for the first time, and your portrait data is not yet available, you will see a message giving you the option to add one when you launch Index. Follow the steps below if you want to add a master list. 1. When the upload message appears, click Add master list. Or you can click the Master List button on the Control Center.
