Problem

Solutions: A customer is writing a manual with over 800 pages and 40 subdocuments. He wants the master index to retain the page numbering as "2.4-x (Chapter 2, Section 4, page x). To accomplish this type of page numbering, do the following: 1. Put a Page Numbering command, [Pg Num:1] on the first page of each subdocument, thereby forcing the pages to start renumbering with each subdocument. 2. Keep the page numbering in the footers or headers as 2.4-^B. 3. Insert a [Pg Num Style:4.1^B] at the top of each subdocument. Change the 4.1 as needed, depending on which chapter and section you're in. The end result is to trick the master indexing routine into seeing the pagination style while page numbering restarts as it passes through the master document. This allows proper pick up of both the numbering format and the numbering breakdowns. The two inserts ( [Pg Num:1] and [Pg Num Style 4.1^B] ) at the top of the document do not affect the printing. All the actual pagination during printing is handled in the footer. All the printing is done from the individual subdocuments, and is not tested to see if the entire Master Document will print correctly as an individual document. *This information is given strictly as a trouble shooting option
