      Hi All,
      I’m laying out a language book.
      The author wants to know if there is a way to automate a dictionary from the content of the book.
      Right now, the book is set up in sections – tables of words, translation and transliteration according to sections, like food, numbers, etc.
      Is there any way to generated dictionary from the words used in the book?

      Thanks!

      If you have used character styles or paragraph styles, then you may be able to use indexmatic from indiscripts.com

      Whoa – I was typing this while on the phone.
      I can’t believe how I wrote dictionary in the title….

      Thanks for the link, David, but I don’t see anything there that indicates the script can be used to gather words with their translation from tables. Do you think I didn’t look at it thoroughly enough?
