I finally have exported my ebook into the kindle marketplace. However, I am running the kindle previewer app and just noticed a few things. When I previewed the epub using iBooks, the table of contents seemed to load just fine.
However, when I check the TOC on the kindle previewer, it doesn't appear to be working.
The source file is in InDesign. I used the create TOC command to build it, which makes hyperlinks but didn't create bookmarks. Will I have to manually add to the document in order to get this working properly?
Are there any tricks to using the Create TOC command and having it make these bookmarks. I had 'create pdf bookmarks' checked when I made the TOC, but the links it makes show up in the hyperlinks dialog, not in the bookmarks dialog. This makes me think I need to do this step by hand. I am not sure what the difference is between the two in InDesign....
Also, I found that in the previewer, the NCX view works fine, it shows both levels of the TOC I created ( I used H1 / H2 to have main items and subitems ). Just the Cmd-T "TOC" menu doesn't load.
