Hi :) It's always tricky when you are unfamiliar with a new tool. There is documentation https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications
but it's often easier to just post a question and then start looking through. With luck someone might point you to the right section of the guides. If you do find an answer yourself after posting a question then please finish the thread by posting back with your own answer. That makes the archives more useful. Congrats, thanks and regards from Tom :) >________________________________ > From: Thomas Blasejewicz <tho...@s7.dion.ne.jp> >To: users@global.libreoffice.org >Sent: Monday, 11 March 2013, 13:36 >Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] caption numbering > >YES.
