Reply To: Unwanted character style added to index

Thank you for your reply. Yes, in the character styles the formatting is as follows:

Index entry: character style “none” (correct)
Space between index entry and first page number: character style “none” (correct)
Page numbers: character style “index page number” (correct)
Spaces and commas between page numbers: character style “tab” (incorrect – this style is used in the TOC)

It has happened that another random character style than “tab” has been assigned to the spaces and commas but I haven’t been able to see a pattern in this.

There are no nested styles or anything in play that I know of. And indeed I have not been able to find an option for assigning a style to the commas and spaces.

This is a recurring problem for every index we make and a fix (other than my previously mentioned workaround using only spaces) would be much appreciated.
