See the previous instructions on how to go about this assignment.

To get some practice creating a book in FrameMaker and then generating the table of contents (TOC), do the following:

1. Use these partially formatted files to create a small book:
• headings.mif
• lists.mif
• notices.mif
Note: Save these files as regular FrameMaker files. Click File > Save As and then manually change the .mif to .fm. Change the chapter titles to Heading1 and the first-level headings to Heading2 (if you are interested in experimenting, tag the indented third-level headings as Heading3).


2. To build the book:
   1. With all three files open in FrameMaker, click File > New > Book.
   2. Click yes to the prompt asking whether to add the current file.
   3. With the book file still open, add the other files to the book in any order you wish.
   4. In the book file, right-click on each chapter name, click Numbering, select the Page tab, select Continue Numbering from Previous File in Book, and click Set.

3. For each of these three files, open the file and:
   • Use double-sided pagination, with the page numbers on the outside bottom corners of the page (specifically, at the bottom left corner on even-numbered pages and at the bottom right corner on odd-numbered pages).
   • Force all files to end on an even-numbered page.
   • Use arabic numbers for the body pages.
   • Use consecutive page numbering throughout this book, starting at chapter 1.

   Note: You also have to build an index using these same file; save the files you've just created so that you don't have to repeat these.

4. To create the TOC:
   1. Include chapter titles and first-level headings in the TOC (Heading1 and Heading2).
   2. When you generate the TOC, accept the FrameMaker defaults. However, if you are feeling adventuresome, experiment with leader dots. (See TOCs for an illustration.)
   3. After you have generated your first TOC, display the TOC file, add or modify paragraph tags as follows, and do Update All:

   Title	Use FrameMaker defaults; add "Contents" as title.
   Head1TOC	16pts above/8pts below; Arial 12pt bold
   Head2TOC	0pts above/0pts below; Times New Roman 12pt regular roman

   
   
   
   4. To ensure that table of contents retains this format, regenerate the TOC and check its format. You must delete the original TOC before generating a new one. Just highlight the TOC file in the book file, right-click, and select Cut.

5. Zip these documents into a compressed file named with your first name and initial and _booktoc1.zip (for example, davidm_booktoc1.zip) and send it by e-mail attachment to your instructor.
