Click in the IndexIX paragraph (the single-line paragraph whose text is <$pagenum>).
The <$pagenum> building block specifies that the index include page numbers (rather
than paragraph numbers). The paragraph’s Default Font properties specify the font
properties of the page numbers in the index.
You’ll change the Default Font properties so that the page numbers will look the way you
want when you update the index.

With the Default Font properties displayed in the Paragraph Designer, change the
Family to Myriad-Roman (Windows) or Myriad (Mac OS and UNIX), the Size to 8, and
the Spread to 5.
