To add the indexing style in Advance PDF. We can use the attribute “marker-type”
eg: marker-type = “lower-alpha” – The index will be printed as lower case alphabets in sequential order in the example above.
Other examples are
- marker-type = “upper-alpha” : Upper case alphabets
- marker-type = “lower-roman” : Lower case roman letters
- marker-type = “upper-roman” : upper case roman letters
Screenshot for the “marker-type” attribute.


We can start the index from a specific character using attribute “start”
example : start = “10” : This will start from 10
If the indexing is done in alphabetical order, we can use the number to indicate the beginning of the character.
example : marker-type = “upper-alpha” start = “4” : This will start from letter “D”
