Use sequential paragraph numbering in books
To use sequential paragraph numbering for lists of figures, tables, or other items, you first define a numbered list that
is used in a paragraph style. The numbered list you define determines whether paragraph numbering maintains
sequential numbering across documents in a book.
1 Open the document that is used as the style source for the book.
2 Choose Type > Bulleted And Numbered Lists
> Define Lists.
3 Click New to define a list or select an existing list and choose Edit.
4 Select both Continue Numbers Across Stories and Continue Numbers From Previous Document In Book.
5 Click OK.
6 Define a paragraph style that uses a numbered list, and apply it to the text in each document that contains the list.
(See “
Create a paragraph style for running lists
To make sure the same numbered list setting is used across all documents in the book, select the Paragraph Styles and
Numbered Lists options in the Synchronize Options dialog box, and then synchronize the book.
Print or output a book file
One advantage of using a book file is that you can use a single command to output—for print, preflight, package, or
export to PDF—selected booked documents or the entire book.
1 In the Book panel, do one of the following:
•
To output specific documents, select the desired documents.
•
To output the entire book, make sure no documents are selected.
2 Choose an output command (such as Print Book or Print Selected Documents) in the Book panel menu.
