This shouldn't happen with blank lines between the list items, where a blank line is empty or contains only ASCII whitespace. And lists where list elements containing more than one block element can be formed as described in http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/userguide.html#X15 If you still have the problem, can you post a short (10 line) example that has the problem?

With this one, take your docbook file and report it to dblatex if you think the docbook is right. (and ask for the numbering instruction while you are there :) Cheers Lex -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "asciidoc" group.
