Here's one direct (i.e. brute force) approach: If page 131 is in the middle of a chapter, split the chapter into two files, one that ends with page 131 and one that starts with page 132. Set the pagination for the first half to "Delete empty pages" and set the pagination for the second half to start on "Next available" (which option is only available from the book window) or "Left" if you're working with duplex pages. Change the numbering properties of the second half from "Continue from previous file" to start with 132. If page 131 is already the last page in a chapter you skip the step if splitting the chapter.
Then just make the new content a separate file that you'll include in the book between the two halves. Modify this file's master page(s) to use a two-part page number, one half of which will be the regular page number system variable that you'll set to use numeric format beginning with "a" or "A", and the other half of which is the text string "131" (or "131-" if you prefer). You can either enter that text directly on the master page, or use the $volnum system variable if you're not already using it. My opinions only; I don't speak for Intel.

I'm working on a revision to a manual. In this revision, I need to add new information to a chapter that is 176 pages long. The new information needs to go after page 31, which means that not only would this page be included in the revision, but all the subsequent pages would have to be added, as well, because even thought the information is the same, the page numbers all shifted by one. I'd rather not print 146 pages when I only need to make one page of actual content change. So, is there a way to add a page and call it 31-a, without causing all the other page numbers to change? I tried to search the archives on the FrameUsers website, but it appears the site is temporarily down. Thanks, dave. -- If you're having trouble getting inspired about something, it's probably because you're temporarily lacking inspiration. That's what you need.
