Hélène,

On your reference page, type three tab characters before the <$pagenum> 
block.  Apply your character tag to the block only. (FM will ignore the 
extra tab characters unless an entry runs onto two lines -- in which 
case, it will use the second tab character and line up the page number 
properly. The third tab character will still separate the leaders from 
the page number so they won't get coloured, too.)

HTH,
