Question

Auto numbering in TOC tags

I am creating books that use auto numbering in the headings.

For example:

1.0 Introduction
2.0 First chapter
2.1 First topic
2.2 Second topic
2.2.1 Sub topic 1

When I generate the TOC, the numbers do not appear. I do not see any information in the User's Guide.

I am using Framemaker 7.2.

Any suggestions?

    Go to the Reference Page(s) in the TOC file and scroll down until you find the collection of variables that generate the TOC contents. It'll look something like:

    openObjectId <$relfilename>:<$ObjectType> <$ObjectId>
    <$paratext> <$pagenum>
    <$paratext> <$pagenum>
    <$paratext> <$pagenum>

    Each one of the lines is the format for a tag that should be included.
    Scroll up and down to identify the tags that you want have display numbering.

    Type in the para numbering variable, like this:
    <$paranum> <$paratext> <$pagenum>

    Save the file and update the book....
