Making an index?

[nontroppo]

For a more general markdown compile workflow, I made a pandoc filter that allows you to choose to create indexes for DOCX / ODT / Typst PDF or LaTeX PDF from the same Scrivener project; read through this thread (for some other options too):

Making an index?

I’ve created a Pandoc filter that basically does what @AmberV’s compile replacements do for ODT, but with the added flexibility of supporting Typst + ODT + DOCX + LaTeX. It depends on the same two styles AmberV specifies: Index Key and Index Term — these should get compiled to \index{ancestor!parent!keyword} and \indext{ancestor!parent!keyword} (you need to wire these up in your compile format); the ancestor and parent are optional. The difference between \index and \indext are based on whether …
