Hi Andy,
The numbering and pagination settings should be set at the book level for documents that are part of a book. Since the book is a container for your documents, this is where it matters. You generally wouldn't set numbering and pagination properties at the document level unless they are stand-alone documents. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments. Thank you very much.

For instance I seem to remember that if I tried to make a change to page numbering in a document within a book I'd get a message reporting that there was a conflict of some sort. (It's been a while since I did this so I may have that wrong.) Often if I then made that change in the book it didn't seem to stick. Is there a single list of those features that should be set in the book rather than individual documents/chapters? I can understand that pages would be set like this but I'm wondering if other aspects such as page size, etc. that I should be considering at the start of the project. It seemed to me before that it made things more difficult if I got this in the wrong order. Andy FrameMaker 10, Windows XP. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
