   • To add a page with the table of contents, turn on the Table of contents switch .
     

     Adding the table of contents works only when exporting documents to the PDF format.

   • Click the Media numbering drop-down box and select one of the following options:
     • Generate automatically - all images in the generated document are numbered automatically while disregarding any image numbers that were changed manually.
     • Use current numbering - all images in the generated document are numbered the same way as in the Cameo Collaborator document.
   • Click the Section numbering drop-down box and select one of the following options:
     • Automatic numbering - all sections in the generated document are numbered automatically.
     • None - sections in the generated document are not numbered.
