Can I generate a table of contents in multiple documents?

[Guest]

I have multiple very long (100 page plus) documents that I want to generate a
table of contents for. But I do not want to merge the documents. Is there a
way to generate an automatice table of contents that will display the
headings and page numbers for all documents?

Hi Otonkue

Yes, you can generate a table of contents from multiple documents.

For a short, simple description see the section "How to create a table of
contents for several documents" at

For a longer, fuller description, see

Hope this helps.
