hi Bob, Thanks for the fast response. I do understand (I think) how to change the gentext but I only want to change this particular instance of the text on the chapter title page, not the xrefs or any other place. (this is to match a spec, not my own idea).
Can that be done? I haven't figured out where that template is. thanks! --Tim On Wed, Oct 31, 2012 at 5:17 PM, Bob Stayton <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Tim, > I'm not clear if you want to eliminate numbering of chapters, or just this > numbering label in chapter titlepage output (leaving the number in the TOC > and xrefs).
