Sure!

The formatting for the index serves to indicate, for a given topic, the location where the reader will find the main documentation on that topic. So the page(s) that have the most basic and comprehensive information are in boldface, while entries that reference the topic more peripherally are in standard type.

For example, I have an index entry "Plot Setup." I have references to that topic on pages 289, 302 and 400, and for each of those the text of the marker just reads:

Plot Setup

The primary treatment of the topic is on pages 317 to 332, and those markers read:

<$startrange>Plot Setup<Emphasis>
<$endrange>Plot Setup<Emphasis>

So in the index, it appeared as:

Plot Setup 289, 302, 400, 317-332

I'm also getting this with single-page markers, so I know it's not caused by the <$startrange> and <$endrange>.

Thanks,
Melinda
