Are you applying the same right/left master pages to the TOC as you're applying to the body chapters, or did you create a different template for the TOC? When you update the book, is the Apply Master Pages option cleared? Nadine On 15/02/2010 9:14 PM, Ken Poshedly wrote: FM8.0 on a Windows

I'm not sure what you're doing wrong but hopefully this will help... Our TOCs are set up this way and first, go to the master page and find the page number. We define ours as a variable with this value: $curpagenum You should define the page numbering format at the book level, so from the book

To get back to the original topic It sounds to me as if the solution would be a FrameScript that would do the absolute page counting outside the document and insert a text value based on the script's page count. And it would need a loop to remove existing numbers when you ran it to update.

. Then propagate the modified file changes to your other files with Import Formats. In the Book file, set the Chapter numbering property to increase in all but the first file, which you hard wire to 1. The Page numbering property for each file in the book should probably stay as you have it, to continue

I already use the chapter-page numbering. The existing pages list the unit name followed by a hyphen and the page number. So there are not 24 naked page 3s, there's a Intro-3 and a Something-3 and a Something Else-3. The chapter names (vs numbers) make it possible for trainers to re-order
