what is the numbering pattern you're trying to achieve?

1. Continuous numbering throughout the document, regardless of other

2. Restarting  from each division?

Thank you, Stephano, good question

The required format has no sections - the only organizing level is the 
paragraph, thus the numbering should go from [0001] to [0n] as the last 
paragraph in the document. It might be nice to be able to have a few 
non-numbered paragraphs, but that hack would be very easy, if the 
numbering elsewhere were achieved.

Well, I would suggest using the paragraph sectioning command, with a
few tweaks to get the font and spacing identical to the following
text. That would also  allow you to insert non numbered paragraphs
anywhere you want. But before a solution can be provided: what is
format of the numbering? Do you need numbers padded with up to three
zeros? That is less trivial, even though there are packages that do
that.

Stefano

Also, it depends on which document class you're using. Here is a stab
using memoir and the fmtcount package to get the padding zeros:
Put this in your preamble:

\setcounter{secnumdepth}{5}
\setafterparaskip{0em}
\setbeforeparaskip{0em}
\setparaheadstyle{\normalfont}
\usepackage{fmtcount}
\renewcommand\theparagraph{{[}\padzeroes[4]{\decimal{paragraph}}{]}}

Then, use the first few words of each real paragraphs as the content
of the paragraph environment, as per in the enclosed example. You may
want to write a simple module that tweak the layout of the paragraph
environment in lyx, perhaps, to match more closely the final output,
and put the preamble code in the same module.

Cheers,

Stefano

Re: numbering paragraphs (lyx newbie)

[Yamandu Ploskonka]

The parnum format is square bracket, four digits, square bracket

As to the text formatting, it's supposed to be plain - no bolds, 
different sizes, anything - section titles are supposed to be like the 
rest, merely in upper case [1] . Interestingly, the one sample provided 
/does/ show horizontal lines above and below the section titles... (been 
looking for the last 20 minutes and cannot find that one, sorry...)


Thus no problem as to Class, pretty much anything plain page would do.

1.-
the pages of the specification (but not the transmittal letter sheets 
or other forms), including claims and abstract, must be numbered 
consecutively, starting with 1, the numbers being centrally located 
above or preferably below, the text. The lines of the specification must 
be 1.5 or double spaced (lines of text not comprising the specification 
need not be 1.5 or double spaced). It is desirable to include an 
indentation at the beginning of each new paragraph, and for paragraphs 
to be numbered (i.e., [0001], [0002], [0003], etc.).


It is preferable to use all of the section headings described below to 
represent the parts of the specification. Section headings should use 
upper case text without underlining or bold type. If the section 
contains no text, the phrase Not Applicable should follow the section 
heading.

paragraph, thus the numbering should go from [0001] to [0n] as the last 
paragraph in the document. It might be nice to be able to have a few 
non-numbered paragraphs, but that hack would be very easy, if the 
numbering elsewhere were achieved.

 Yama,

 what is the numbering pattern you're trying to achieve?

 1. Continuous numbering throughout the document, regardless of other
 divisions (sections, subsections, etc.]

 2. Restarting  from each division?

 3. A composite subsection/paragraph numbering?

Well, I would suggest using the paragraph sectioning command, with a
few tweaks to get the font and spacing identical to the following
text. That would also  allow you to insert non numbered paragraphs
anywhere you want. But before a solution can be provided: what is
format of the numbering? Do you need numbers padded with up to three
zeros? That is less trivial, even though there are packages that do
that.

Cheers,

Stefano

Also, it depends on which document class you're using. Here is a stab
using memoir and the fmtcount package to get the padding zeros:
Put this in your preamble:

\setcounter{secnumdepth}{5}
\setafterparaskip{0em}
\setbeforeparaskip{0em}
\setparaheadstyle{\normalfont}
\usepackage{fmtcount}
\renewcommand\theparagraph{{[}\padzeroes[4]{\decimal{paragraph}}{]}}

Then, use the first few words of each real paragraphs as the content
of the paragraph environment, as per in the enclosed example. You may
want to write a simple module that tweak the layout of the paragraph
environment in lyx, perhaps, to match more closely the final output,
and put the preamble code in the same module.

Re: numbering paragraphs (lyx newbie)

[Yamandu Ploskonka]

The parnum format is square bracket, four digits, square bracket

As to the text formatting, it's supposed to be plain - no bolds, 
different sizes, anything - section titles are supposed to be like the 
rest, merely in upper case [1] . Interestingly, the one sample provided 
/does/ show horizontal lines above and below the section titles... (been 
looking for the last 20 minutes and cannot find that one, sorry...)


Thus no problem as to Class, pretty much anything plain page would do.

Maybe Memoir will be the fix. I've tried  Koma, all sorts of plain and 
some other assorted (my code was hacked out of hollywood...), but never 
Memoir.  I'll get into it right now.

1.-
the pages of the specification (but not the transmittal letter sheets 
or other forms), including claims and abstract, must be numbered 
consecutively, starting with 1, the numbers being centrally located 
above or preferably below, the text. The lines of the specification must 
be 1.5 or double spaced (lines of text not comprising the specification 
need not be 1.5 or double spaced). It is desirable to include an 
indentation at the beginning of each new paragraph, and for paragraphs 
to be numbered (i.e., [0001], [0002], [0003], etc.).


It is preferable to use all of the section headings described below to 
represent the parts of the specification. Section headings should use 
upper case text without underlining or bold type. If the section 
contains no text, the phrase Not Applicable should follow the section 
heading.

Well, I would suggest using the paragraph sectioning command, with a
few tweaks to get the font and spacing identical to the following
text. That would also  allow you to insert non numbered paragraphs
anywhere you want. But before a solution can be provided: what is
format of the numbering? Do you need numbers padded with up to three
zeros? That is less trivial, even though there are packages that do
that.

Stefano

Also, it depends on which document class you're using. Here is a stab
using memoir and the fmtcount package to get the padding zeros:
Put this in your preamble:

\setcounter{secnumdepth}{5}
\setafterparaskip{0em}
\setbeforeparaskip{0em}
\setparaheadstyle{\normalfont}
\usepackage{fmtcount}
\renewcommand\theparagraph{{[}\padzeroes[4]{\decimal{paragraph}}{]}}

Then, use the first few words of each real paragraphs as the content
of the paragraph environment, as per in the enclosed example. You may
want to write a simple module that tweak the layout of the paragraph
environment in lyx, perhaps, to match more closely the final output,
and put the preamble code in the same module.

to hack in many ways.  I'll try the attach,


Thank you!

The parnum format is square bracket, four digits, square bracket

As to the text formatting, it's supposed to be plain - no bolds, different
sizes, anything - section titles are supposed to be like the rest, merely in
upper case [1] . Interestingly, the one sample provided /does/ show
horizontal lines above and below the section titles... (been looking for the
last 20 minutes and cannot find that one, sorry...)

Thus no problem as to Class, pretty much anything plain page would do.

Maybe Memoir will be the "fix". I've tried  Koma, all sorts of plain and
some other assorted (my code was hacked out of hollywood...), but never
Memoir.  I'll get into it right now.

You can also do it with standard classes and the titlesec package
(which is not really compatible with memoir). See attached example. If
you have section headings, however, paragraphs numbers will not be
reset for every section. Is that what you need?  Resetting counters
can  be managed, I think, but off the top of my head I don't remember
how to do it automatically.
BTW, in the attached example, the spacing between the para label and
the main text (which is set in the preamble), should probably be
tweaked to get a natural looking feel. See titlesec's manual for
details.
Your specs are also not very clear about the parindent. Is the number
indented as well or just the paragraph text? At any rate, either
behavior is easy to do with memoir or the titlesec package.


BTW, I see you're Aggie, Stefano, I am located in Austin myself.

Then we're neighbor. I live in Austin too.
