I am sorting chapters into a new book. Chapters 1-6 work fine, so does chapter 8. Then I added chapter 7 and the pagenumbers are now all out of whack!

Instead of chapter 7 starting on page 117 it starts on page 20 for some reason, this tricking chapter 8 to start on page 37, which isn't right either.

When I visit chapter 7 and go to the Section Manager it looks like this

And I cannot manually change the 20 to 117.

What is wrong with the book?

You can't use the Section Manager to change the starting page number for the first section in a Chapter in a Publisher Book. You need to use the Page Number Options command from the Books panel menu to do this, and the Book must be open when you do it.

After some tinkering with that I think I got that working. Having to go through each chapter and reset the pagecount to "Continue from previous chapter" was worth it, although tedious, and I don't understand why that is not the default option.

 

Thank you for your help!
