##### 14.8.6.2 Specifying a file name and suffix for the index

To specify a file name for the index:

    [Index]
    ; IDXFile = base name to use for output file, with suffix IDX
    IDXFile = mapnameIDX
    ; IDXSuffix = suffix for the base file name, default IDX
    IDXSuffix = IDX
    ; IndexFileSuffix = suffix to add to map name for index file
    ; if no IDXFile name (deprecated)
    IndexFileSuffix = IDX.htm

If you specify a value for IDXFile, IDXSuffix is ignored. See §14.2 Naming generated HTML list and index files.

For IndexFileSuffix, you must include the file extension as well as a suffix to add to the base map name. The default suffix is IDX.htm. Use of IndexFileSuffix is deprecated. If you provide a value for IDXFile, DITA2Go ignores IndexFileSuffix.
