TOC Entries that Target Native Leafs and Descendents

A native leaf is a leaf with the Use Native File attribute set to YES. Because the output file of native leafs may be of any file type, Native leafs require special handling.

The following rules apply for native files:

• The page number for the first page is used for any page in a native leaf document. Page numbers and totals are always calculated using the Planned Number of Pages for native leaf documents. If you have not indicated a Planned Number of Pages for  a native leaf document, one page will be used. Native leaf documents follow the usual rules of page numbering. If you do not want native leaf pages to be added to the page numbers and totals, set Include in page numbering to NO. If you do not want the native leaf document to affect the paper channel page numbers, remove it from the paper output channel.
• The PDF link for a link, TOC entry, or bookmark in published PDF output that targets a page in a native leaf appears as a Launch link. The targeted native leaf file is opened in its associated application. Because of this, individual pages in the native leaf file cannot be targeted. If Adobe Acrobat® is the default application for PDF files, links targeting pages in native leaf output will navigate to the first page.
