How to create and index of photos at the end of my book

Rather than labelling each photo, I want an index list using the photos titles and page reference at the end of my Lightroom CC book.. I would prefer not to do this manually and also have it update when I move photos. Is this possible? Regards Paul

    Nothing found in a Google search. There is a 4 year old request for this capability where you can add your 'Me To' vote. A new request here will get more attention, but it's probably low on Adobe's list of new features.

    You will have to make the index manually.

    > First make your index in a text document

    Then:

    > Select automatic numbering under the page tab.

    > Select the page to be used for the index and click the “Change Page Layout” icon.

    > Scroll down to text pages and choose the first one for free flowing text.

    > Copy index from text document and paste nto the text cell.

    There's no way to "automatically" add an index table in the LR book module. However, you can add "automatic" photo titles using the 'Text' panel. Where are you entering the photo titles for each photo?
