Hi,
Does anyone have a simple solution to exclude just the index from being included in the pdf?
Thanks

Hello,
If you are generating PDF using the DITA Map PDF - based on HTML5 & CSS scenario, you can add the following rules into a custom CSS stylesheet:
Code: Select all
/* Remove the index from the TOC */
*[class ~= "map/topicref"][is-index] {
display: none;
}
/* Remove the index from the content and the bookmarks */
*[class ~= "index/groups"] {
display: none;
bookmark-level: 0;
}
If you are using a <bookmap>, the index is generated by the presence of the <indexlist/> element, if you remove it, it will not be generated.
Regards,
Julien
