Generating the Directory
It is suggested as mentioned prior, to do this step as one of the final things in the book project to maintain the accuracy of the index. If Photos or pages are moved the directory will not auto update so it may need to be regenerated and replaced or the information may be incorrect.
- Once all photos are tagged to your liking and your book is almost complete to the "Create" tab in the top toolbar and then select “EDOnline - Create Directory”

2. From here it will list some directions as well as the Results of the index statistics which show based on your people data how many people still need to be tagged.

Then you can Launch your book checker. Once that is complete click the blue “Generate” button to create the physical directory. Then it will take you to the next screen where you can customize the layout of your directory and once you are satisfied with the settings click “Generate Index”

Once the Index is done there will be an updated preview in the section to the right of the directory customization box. Then your directory is ready to place!
Placing The Directory
Go into the Designer and go to the page you would like to place the directory on. Then click the Layouts button

Then go to the Navy Blue “My templates" button. Then click templates so the category opens and scroll to the bottom. Then you can click the indexes and drop them on the page.
