Line numbering tables in FM11?

[De Rosier, Edward]

Correct, Richard.
Tori, perhaps you could make the entire file a large table with one-line rows.  The left column could be just large enough to hold numbers, and the right column could span the remaining text frame width.  You would need to restart each line in a new row.

Or you could use my previous idea and end each line (regardless of paragraph tag) with a return (no wrapping allowed).

Or perhaps create a side head with a 1-column table for the line numbering.

These are all clumsy solutions.  Sorry, I've never been required to number each line.

It doesn't. Ed's proposal numbers paragraphs, not lines.
