FM driving me crazy!

[Joe Malin]

Thanks. I did that once, and it worked. However, every time I update the
book, it goes back to being one page!

I *wonder*, though, if this isn't really an artifact of generated files.
I update the pagination which fixes the problem, but then I regenerate,
which creates a new, "broken" file. I wonder if FM is simply not smart
enough to generate an extra page when it regenerates the list of tables.
Anyone know?

Update the pagination for the whole book. FM applies the pagination
accross all files in the book.

Well, FrameMaker 7.1 is driving me crazy again (so what else is new?)

I'm trying to update a book with several files in it. One file has only
one page in it. I set the pagination properties in Format > Page Layout
> Pagination to "Make Page Count Even" so it will add an extra blank
page. But every time I update the book, this file is set back to a
single page.

It's a generated file, List of Tables. I am setting its pagination from
the book window, not from within the file itself.

This is unstructured FrameMaker.

Any ideas?
