Well, that settles it, doesn't it? :-)
I didn't realize this was your customer. I assumed that this was a
request from a peer or another dept.

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.

Our trainer wants to include both chapter-oriented numbering AND
absolute page numbering in training materials derived from my manuals.
It looks like in FM8 (unstructured) I can set page numbering to be one
or the other.
Is there a way to have it both ways? Some sort of user variable that I
can
John,
You have two options, plus a few corner case methods.
The easiest would be:
In the master page, either insert a $chapnum variable before the
Current Page # (that contains $curpagenum) variable, or you can
modify the Current Page # definition to include both:
$chapnum-$curpagenum.
Then

John,
You have two options, plus a few corner case methods.
The easiest would be:
In the master page, either insert a <$chapnum> variable before the
Current Page # (that contains <$curpagenum>) variable, or you can
modify the Current Page # definition to include both:
<$chapnum>-<$curpagenum>.
