I'm outputting to PDF and using v9 of Flare.
I have a TOC built for PDF output. One of the topics is a title page. After the title page, I have the printed TOC topic (with the TOC proxy), followed by other topics that make up the actual documentation.
Whenever I build and view/publish the output, the title page and TOC are both on the printed TOC. Is there a way to exclude topics from being printed by the TOC proxy? I feel like I'm obviously missing something, but can't quite get my fingers on it.
Thanks!

Re: Excluding Topics from Printed TOC?
Presumably your title page and TOC page are both using h1 as a header -- that means they'll be in the TOC just like all the other h1s. If you don't want them there, you need to use a different style for those headers. You can create something like h1.FrontMatter or p.Title or whatever and use that instead. If you use an h1 class like h1.FrontMatter, then you'll need to modify the style properties to set mc-heading-level to 0. That will exclude it from the TOC (otherwise it will inherit the setting from h1 and you'll be in the same boat).

whunter, thank you so much! That is perfect. I got it to work with no problems. Thanks again!
