How to index a Word document with TExtract
How to index a Word document in TExtract
With TExtract you create the back-of-book index for your MS Word manuscript in three steps, using a unique combination of automated and manual indexing:
- Drop the Word .docx file onto TExtract. The initial index is created fully automatically. Running through the text to mark entries is not needed.
- You edit and expand the index in TExtract using powerful and easy to use in-text navigation, selection and editing features, available in no other software.
- Then TExtract embeds the entries in a copy of the Word file, and you can run Word and insert the index.

TExtract takes care of setting up the initial index, but you, the indexer, are in control.
Whether it is for a textbook, biography, research report, PhD thesis, business report, legal case index or product catalog,
your index can be ready within a day - but you can spend as much time as you think necessary.
