Hi All,
This is a critical error that I am getting when I save one particular
framemaker file in my book.
It does not give this error for other framemaker files.
Please see the attached image for details about the error.
Please provide a solution or workaround to this problem.
Thanks and regar

It's not really a conflict with something on a master page, but a conflict

Is it better that the numbers are right-aligned? This seems more of an
accounting requirement than a design one. With left alignment, the numerals
for either the single-digit steps or the double-digit steps do not line up

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./t
That should work theoretically (I haven't tested it, just what I think
should work ;-)

You're probably using a single "left" tab stop to separate the number
from the text. You need to use two, one right-aligned to force the
sequence you want.
Add a "right" tab stop to the Basic para tag tab and also add it to
the Numbering sequence, so it looks something like: \t.\t
