RE: indent right margin on first line



Lisa,
Here are some workarounds that I use on my TOCs, LOTs, and LOFs.

From the generated list determine where the title needs to break so the title wraps without going into the page number area. Go to the offending (Ctrl+Alt+click heading) heading, table title, or figure caption in the document and either: 
1) insert a soft return in the title to force it to wrap at the point you noted in the generated list, or 
2) replace the spaces between the last few words of the title with non-breaking spaces (Esc n s) to hold the words together. You will have to Update Book again to see if the changes fixed the line problem. It may take several tries to get it to look okay in both locations.

Lisa

My solution is to transform all the TOC lines in two pgfs, the first a
run-in head with a right indent.
With FrameScript it is very simple.
