Fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

Is there another way?
BeckyEbook's links would likely work as well. Those 2018 articles are probably better + more modern than the older articles I linked in my Post #4.

Yep, you would think it would be a checkbox in InDesign... especially with how much Adobe talks Accessibility.

I see you didn't read all the links in my earlier post #4!

(Typical Hitch, never reading anything I write! )

Anyway, it's not anything I've ever done in an actual EPUB, just theoretical musings. All the logic is sound though.

Luckily, I haven't had to do an Index in a very long time.
