Autonumber for Heading

Guest
Jun 03, 2010 Jun 03, 2010

I am currently setting up a RH8 project that should generate a CHM and a PDF from a single source. I do not want to do any post processing for the printed documentation so I am prepared to accept the drawbacks the default behavior might have.

So far I have not been able to get autonumbering on the headings in the PDF, and by headings I mean the items that appear in the PDF TOC. I have tried to activate autonumbering for the "Heading X" styles and have created a multilevel List Class and made the connections back and forth, but no luck.

Is it possible to get autonumbering for headings in the PDF without manual post processing?

Hi,

I think that some tweaking in your style mapping.dot may solve this. Open style mapping.dot and change al the heading styles, so they have numbering.

Thanks! I was finally able to get automatic multi level numbering in both the PDF TOC and headings.

Basically I had to use dot file on the last page of the Printed Documentation wizard, and setup the dot file so that the headings and TOC entries were multi level number lists. I also had to change the delimiter after the number from tab to space, otherwise the TOC would be messed up.
