Hmmmmm. You can manually reset numbering in Acrobat, but you have to remember to do it. Any manual step you have to remember to do is bound to be forgotten.
You can use PageLabeler, but it costs money. Not every tech writer is in a position to buy the tools he or she needs. You can use hyperlinks if the reference is from the same book (and you *should*). But you're not always in total control of the outside cross-reference to your book. Most of the time, I can come up with good reasons for a decision, result, or process that seems "stupid". I'm always looking for better ways to do something, but I hesitate to call other ways "worse". Someday somebody is going to call my ways "stupid", and perhaps they'll be right. Nonetheless, I won't like it. Likewise, I try to offer good new ways to do something and let the old ways speak for themselves. *Try* is the operative word here, I ain't perfect!

It strikes me as completely stupid, counterintuitive, and guaranteed to confuse. _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to Framers as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send list messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://lists.frameusers.com/mailman/options/framers/archive%40mail-archive.com Send administrative questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit http://www.frameusers.com/ for more resources and info.
