= SUMMARY =

When creating an index, to have an index heading without a page number following it, use the “.i.” format and place two colons after the heading (the colons can be formatted as hidden text so that they are not seen).

The following is an example:

.i. Boat::

The procedure above will give the heading “Boat” without a page number following it.

To have a subheading after the main entry, place a single colon between the heading and the subheading (with the colon formatted as hidden text), as shown in the following example:

.i. Boat:Sailboat

The procedure above will return the heading “Boat” (without a page number) and a subheading under it of “Sailboat” (with a page number).
