Hey list,
Is it possible to instruct ConTeXt to generate just the table of contents, skipping all other front matter, back matter, appendices, body matter, etc.? For example, only the following I'd like to see in the outputted PDF:
% Contents at a glance... \title{Contents at a Glance} \placelist[chapter]
% Complete table of contents... \title{Table of Contents} \placecontent
Right now I am generating the full book, but then passing through pdftk manually to extract just the pages that fall within the aforementioned.
I tried putting the aforementioned code in its own product file and then passing that through ConTeXt with the book's environment, but the problem is that the TOC now has nothing in it, of course.
I don't know if there is proper interface to this, but you can just load the tuc file and reuse the labels. \def\loaddatafile#1% {\ctxlua { job.initialize("#1.tuc","#1.tua") }}% \loaddatafile{full-book} %with the .tex extension \starttext \placelist[chapter] \stoptext Aditya
