Inconsistent Numbering Properties

[Fred Ridder]

The "inconsistent numbering properties" message is only a warning. If you ignore it, FrameMaker will do exactly what you want it to do: it will use the numbering properties as set in the book file. FrameMaker warns you so that you can make sure that nothing has inadvertently been changed in the book file's setup. Once you are certain the book's properties are set properly, you can ignore all  further inconsistency messages.

The properties that exist in the individual content files are there so that the file will display the correct numbering if you open and/or print it individually rather than as part of the book. (That is why some numbering options such as "continue from previous file in book" are not available when you set the properties for an individual file. 

But when you do an Update Book or Print Book operation, FrameMaker always uses the properties that are set in the book file, since that is required to allow the use of common content files (e.g. a shared acronym list or glossary) in multiple books.

Hi,
 
This subject must come up regularly. I use the certain documents in several books. When I update those books I have Inconsistent Numbering Properties.
 
I open the documents that are named. I set their numbering properties as in the book. But the problem is then put to another document, or same one.
 
I only use documents within books. Is there some way to tell FrameMaker or a book to ignore the document numbering – use only the numbering done in the book.
 
It would be great to understand/solve this once and for all.
 
Thank you for any advice and have a good weekend,
 
Stephen O'BRIEN
