He did. He uses the chapter numbering within a unit to reassure the user that none of the parts is really big and scary. He feels that if he takes a break on page 62, students may be dismayed and the endless boring class. But if no unit has more than 16 to 20 pages, then he expects a sense of moving right along, making progress with an easy subject. Most classroom references would use the chapter-oriented numbering. OTOH the absolute numbering helps us work together and helps him work with other trainers when they need to reference a specific page. They were having trouble getting on the same page with 24 different page 3s...
Thanks everyone for the input. For now I will run with Fred's Acrobat trick to get this thing to print tomorrow. I will then look into tweaking master pages for a more long-term solution. I am still not sure I understand the solutions I have seen; I will delve into them more tomorrow. -----Original Message----- From: Milan Davidovic [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, March 11, 2009 4:07 PM To: John Sgammato Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: Dual page numbering On Wed, Mar 11, 2009 at 2:35 PM, John Sgammato <[email protected]> wrote: > Our trainer wants to include both chapter-oriented numbering AND > absolute page numbering in training materials derived from my manuals. A bit OT, but did your trainer say why? -- Milan Davidovic http://altmilan.blogspot.com _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to Framers as [email protected].
