Dual page numbering

He did. He uses the chapter numbering within a unit to reassure the user
that none of the parts is really big and scary. He feels that if he
takes a break on page 62, students may be dismayed and the endless
boring class. But if no unit has more than 16 to 20 pages, then he
expects a sense of moving right along, making progress with an easy
subject. Most classroom references would use the chapter-oriented
numbering.
OTOH the absolute numbering helps us work together and helps him work
with other trainers when they need to reference a specific page. They
were having trouble getting on the same page with 24 different page
3s...

Thanks everyone for the input. For now I will run with Fred's Acrobat
trick to get this thing to print tomorrow. I will then look into
tweaking master pages for a more long-term solution. I am still not sure
I understand the solutions I have seen; I will delve into them more
tomorrow.

A bit OT, but did your trainer say why?
