The Smart Index Wizard is a powerful and versatile tool that can automate many of the tasks involved in index preparation. It offers several ways to search topics and generate suggested keywords including:
Find only existing index entries: Searches topics for keywords already used in the index. When an index keyword is found in the topic content, that keyword is suggested for the topic. (This ensures that all topics about a given subject are listed under the index keyword for that subject.)
Find new and existing index entries: Suggests keywords based on topic content as well as existing index entries. The Smart Index Wizard bases its search criteria on the defaults specified at the Options tab.
Use custom search settings: Suggests keywords based on the search criteria that you specify at the Options tab. The Smart Index Wizard adds keywords based on topic content as well as existing index entries.
From the Tools menu, select Smart Index Wizard.
Select Use custom search settings, and click Settings.
All the options that you can change are displayed.
Select the options you want to use when Smart Indexing, and then click OK.
Tip: Click Default to clear custom selections and use the Smart Index Wizard's default search criteria.
