Changed Section and Subsection Numbers

[Böðvar Björgvinsson]

Your problem may just be what you say: "each chapter had the Format –
Document – Numbering (and Page) set properly."
The book update does not look for what each chapter file says about
numbering. You have to set it in the book (right-click each file reference
there and setting all numbering attributes relevant to your publication).
You can choose one or more files at the same time, doing the numbering "in
bulk" (almost).
