Sure Steve, piece of cake. Proceed as follows:
1. Change the numbering of your number list tag into something like this: N:\t<n+>\t 2. Make sure that the first tab stop is right-aligned (e.g. 8 mm R) and the second is left-aligned (e.g. 12 mm L). 3. Check your Left Indent and make sure that it corresponds to your first left-aligned tab stop, for example 12 mm. 4. Update All and there you go. P.S.: sorry for the mm's. ;-) Good luck and best regards -- Yves Barbion Technical Writer Adobe-Certified FrameMaker Instructor ____________________________________ U&I Learning nv (formerly ATeK nv) Molenaarsstraat 111 B-9000 Gent Belgium Tel.: +32 9 265 74 72 Fax: +32 9 265 74 84 www.uni-learning.com ____________________________________ On 4/24/06, Steve Rickaby <srickaby at wordmongers.demon.co.uk> wrote: > > 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.
