How to place End Notes for books with multiple documents?


Recommended Posts

Hi!
I am using the "book" feature and want to place references at the end of the book.

The book itself is made up from multiple documents. I found out how to place endnotes at the end of the document, but how can I make this work for the entire book?
I imagine that i place the end notes like a references chapter in a dedicated document at the end of the book, is this possible?

 

Thanks!

If you haven't checked on this in @MikeTO's manual I suggest starting there. It covers your situation if I remember correctly. Basically you'll use a combination of settings on the Notes and Book panels.

Hi Walt!
I was not yet aware of this enormous guide document. This indeed contains answers to my questions and many more.

Thank you kindly for sharing this.

For visibility of this answer directly on the thread:Yes it is possible to send endnotes to the end of a book. You find details in the manual above, on page 62 (pagination, not page in pdf), and following. In short do this:
 

Quote

 

1) Choose Positioning > Note position > End of Book from the Notes panel


2) Create or edit an endnote and then choose Update Document Settings from Selected Endnotes from the panel menu


3) Create an End Matter document for your endnotes and index to avoid adding a printing section for them after the non-printing #Booknotes section in your last actual chapter. 

4)Add the End Matter document to the Book as a chapter.

5) Place the cursor in a text frame in the End Matter chapter and choose Endnotes > Insert Endnotes from the Books panel menu
