Sierbahnn Posted Wednesday at 12:16 PM Posted Wednesday at 12:16 PM 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? Quote
MikeTO Posted Wednesday at 12:29 PM Posted Wednesday at 12:29 PM 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.

Sierbahnn Posted Wednesday at 12:34 PM Author Posted Wednesday at 12:34 PM Seems like it does not do the do And my page options for the book looks like so Quote
MikeTO Posted Wednesday at 01:09 PM Posted Wednesday at 01:09 PM What happens when you change that chapter from starting on page 3 to continue from previous chapter? And the same for the next chapter?

Sierbahnn Posted Wednesday at 03:58 PM Author Posted Wednesday at 03:58 PM 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! Quote
