· Table of Contents
Divide your document into "chapters", each with its own title in Hebrew or English. With the press of a button, create a table of contents listing all the chapters in the document, and the pages on which they start. Using multiple levels, you can create a table of contents for parts, chapters, and sections. Choose from a variety of impressive styles for the table-of-contents layout, or customize your own.

· Chapter Titles in Headers
Add a "chapter title" into your header, and it will automatically update to reflect the current chapter in your document. That way, with just one header, you can have the title of the current chapter appear correctly on every page in your document. The header of every page can contain several updating items, such as the Parasha and the Perek, or the chapter and the author, in addition to the page number and other text you place in the header.

· Automatically duplicate and link multiple text boxes
DavkaWriter makes it easy to lay out an entire document with several texts, each in its own section of the page, flowing from page to page, for hundreds of pages, always occupying the same spot on each page. Just set up the positions of all your texts on the first page, using text boxes. Then, with "replicate text boxes", DavkaWriter will reproduce those boxes for as many pages as you want, all pre-linked together. Just drop in your text and you're done!

· Find in Files searches built-in text libraries
When you need to search one of DavkaWriter’s text libraries, such as Tanach, Mishnah or Siddur, or one of the libraries included with DavkaWriter Dimensions, Find in Files can be set to quickly search the selected library. It’s almost like having a mini-Judaic Classics Library within DavkaWriter!
