Creating a Keyword Index

This guide will instruct you on how to create and navigate via a keyword index.


Creating a Keyword Index

E-Ring Binder can automatically comb through your documents for a given word or phrase and create an index of each document and page that contains that keyword.

To create a keyword index for your binder, click on the “Show Keyword Index” icon under the “Navigate” tab. This will display the Keyword Index on the right side of your screen.

Then enter a term in the text box and press “Submit.” E-Ring binder will search for that term throughout your binder. This search time may vary depending on the size of your binder.

Your keyword index will be included when you save your binder, and will therefore persist across sessions.


An entry for each search term will appear in your index, detailing each document that the term appears in and which pages the term appears on. Clicking on a page number will take you directly to that page.

Keywords will appear in your index in alphabetical order.

You can remove an entry from your keyword index by clicking on the “X” icon next to the entry.
