This program is an easy way to indexing pdf includes….

“Most of you know the importance to indexing books as pdf. Most if not all technical documents over 20 pages better have at least a TOC. And if they are over 50 pages, they’d really need an Index too.  A well thought-out Index is a sign of quality and professionalism in technical writing. If you are a beginner technical writer building up a technical documentation portfolio for yourself, make sure all your user guides and other manuals do have a detailed and intelligently-designed Index at the end. I have addressed the issue of indexing in other posts.

Indexing becomes a bit complicated when you generate a PDF copy of your document. I for example regularly use Adobe FrameMaker for my documents and then generate a PDF copy through Acrobat PDF Print utility. It kind of sounds complicated but it really is not. I simply select File > Save As from the FM menu and then select PDF from the format drop-down menu and FM automatically kicks the document into Adobe Distiller, which generates the PDF copy. If I have an Index in the original FM source file, the PDF copy would have an Index too of course.

But what about those cases when you do not have an Index in your source file, you have already generated your PDF copy and now you’d like to add an Index from inside the PDF?

That’s where the PDF Index Generator comes to the rescue. This useful software (sold for only $29.95) is really a handy application that can save your day during those last moment project rushes. It seems to have only one shortcoming that I could detect right away and I’ll mention that at the end of this review.”
