Generate a table of contents or list

See how to generate a table of contents or a list of book and TOC for a single Adobe FrameMaker document. Know how to generate various other lists in structured documents and add a title or other static text in Adobe FrameMaker.

Before you generate a table of contents or other paragraph list, do the following to avoid problems in generated lists:

Make sure that styles and elements are applied correctly and consistently. For example, use Heading1 for all first-level headings only.
Make each item you want to include in the list a single paragraph. For example, you won’t get the desired results if a heading is two lines, with each line in a separate paragraph.
Validate structured documents to make sure that they do not have structure errors.

Note: You usually generate a list of references—such as a list of fonts or unresolved cross-references—for your own use while working with a document. You do not need to prepare the document before generating such a list.
