Our numbering sequence is:

Subject: Alignment of list numbers
On seeing some FrameMaker output, an experienced proofreader has
commented on the fact that for numbered lists that run into two digits,
the numbers are left-aligned, rather than right-aligned - the
implication is that, for example, '9' should be aligned above the '0' of
'10'.
I must admit that this thought had not crossed my mind before, but of
course it's true. I've just checked a book set in Quark, and list
numbers do indeed right-align. As FrameMaker can only apply
justification at the paragraph tag level, and not at the character tag
level, I cannot see a simple method of achieving the desired alignment.
Does anyone have any ideas?
