Real World Adobe InDesign CS4- P20: The book uses Robert Slimbach’s Minion Pro, an Adobe OpenType face, which was particularly useful when moving files across platforms. Code samples are set in Lucas de Groot’s TheSansMonoCondensed. A few other fonts were used for example characters. | a 558 REAL WORLD ADOBE INDESIGN CS4 Because no page number is involved in a cross-reference it doesn t matter where in your document you specify it though it must be in a text frame . Some people prefer to put cross-references at the end of a list of second-level index entries rather than directly after the first-level entry. InDesign won t do this for you automatically but you can fake it by creating a dummy second-level entry see Adding a New Second-Level Index Entry below and setting its Type to a crossreference. The dummy second-level entry should just be named with zzz so that it automatically falls at the end of the alphabetized list of second-level entries. Later once you build the index onto your document pages you will have to perform a Find Change to remove these symbols. Adding a New Reference to an Entry Once you ve got an entry on your Index panel you can easily add more page references to it. Let s say you added the name Farmer Jones to your index back on page 13 of your document. Now Farmer Jones appears again on page 51. 1. Place the cursor in the appropriate place in the text story. In this case you d probably put the cursor next to the word Farmer on page 51. 2. Click the entry in the Index panel. Here you d select Farmer Jones. 3. Alt Option-click the New Entry button. Make sure that the Type pop-up menu is set up according to how you want your new reference to appear and then click OK. If you want to use the default New Page Reference dialog box settings you can just drag the index entry on top of the New Entry button instead. Note that while you don t necessarily have to click the entry in the Index panel in step 2 you could just retype the entry in the New Page Reference dialog box or select it on the page we recommend clicking because it ensures consistency. For example if you relied on your typing ability you might create the index entry Chickens and then later meaning to type the same thing create a new entry Chicken causing two different .
