Abbreviation: ã|noneã%
Parameters: ã|index numberã%
ã|Description:ã%
The \printindex markup sorts and prints the index entries generated with the
\index markup. The \printindex markup would usually come at the end of a
document before the table of contents. This markup has the format
\printindexN
where N is the index number: 1, 2 or 3. By default, the index is
printed using the indent style of index in ten point Computer Modern. It
is recommended that you print the index in two columns (\twocolumns). For
a complete list of the defaults and how to modify them, refer to the
\indexformat markup.
ã|Example:ã%
The following illustrates how to place an index at the end of a document,
after the last appendix, and before the table of contents. Assume the table
of contents is to begin on page "iv".
\appendix{Sample Data}
\preface{Index}
\twocolumns
\printindex1
\onecolumns
\tableofcontents{-4}
Using the \preface markup will start a new page with the title
"Index" at the top of the page. Then \twocolumns will begin two column
formatting (typical for indexes). Next \printindex1 will sort index "1" and
print the sorted index according to the defaults set by the \indexformat
markup. After printing the last of the index, \onecolumn will switch back
to single column mode before printing the table of contents.
ã|Example:ã%
Sometimes multiple indexes are required. If you had used \index1 and
\index2, then you would use \printindex1 and \printindex2 to print them out:
\index1item in first index
\index2item in second index
\preface{Index One}
\twocolumns
\printindex1
\onecolumns
\preface{Index Two}
\twocolumns
\printindex2
\onecolumns
ã|Notes:ã%
none.
