Create your step paragraph with a right aligned tab for the number and then a left aligned tab for the text.
Set your numbering to: /t<n>./t That should work theoretically (I haven't tested it, just what I think should work ;-) Zoe -----Original Message----- From: framers-bounces+zlawson=openservice....@lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-bounces+zlawson=openservice.com at lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Steve Rickaby Sent: Monday, April 24, 2006 10:47 AM To: framers at FrameUsers.com 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? -- Steve _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to Framers as zlawson at openservice.com.
