Question

I have created an index for a book, and when I try to generate it, I get a file that only says Index and is otherwise blank. How do I get the index to save on a page for the book?

I can see the entries when I click on the index, but when I generate the index I get nothing that I can use.

    This is what I see when I try to add the index to a page.

    That was just one I pulled up to send the image. I have checked Include Book Documents.

    So then please share the Generate Index dialog box that you are actually using.

    Can you show a screenshot of your settings when generating the index?

    You do not have Include Book Documents checked.
