Re: indexers--embedded indexing
By not providing an embedded index, the idea is that
the indexers will provide only the finished, manual
index in Word or something.
This certainly would give the indexers more power and income (as you require their services anew after each revision), but I fail to see where your advantage would be.
Whether other people move away from embedded indexing (my impression is that the opposite is true) seems immaterial: You'll want to do what is best for you. Unless the indexers can give you clear advantages of not imbedding index markers, I'd demand that they embed them. (If they can give you such advantages, I'd love to hear them, since I cannot imagine what they might be.)
