Exporting Special Types of Output

In addition to exporting your project file as a compilation of your writing, you can create outlines, a Synopsis list, or a collection of document notes in the Compile window (which you can open by choosing File⇒Compile).

Follow these steps:

1. From the Format As drop-down list, select the appropriate option.

Here are your choices:

• Enumerated Outline: A numbered list of documents in hierarchy fashion; see Figure 13-8

• Synopses and Titles: A list of Binder items and their Synopses, shown in Figure 13-9

• Synopsis Outline: Similar to Synopses and Titles, but the outline doesn’t include the underlined document titles

2. In the Contents tab, choose the items that you want to include in the numbered list.

See Chapter 12 for more on selecting items to include in compiled output.

3. From the Compile For drop-down list, select the desired output type.

4. Click Compile.

You can change how the outline appears in the Formatting tab (covered in Chapter 12).
