[Framers] FM2019 Volume and Chapter Numbering

[ideaslists at ideastraining.com]

My method/two cents...

You can put the chapters in a book as usual. You can put those books in a
master book to control the volume numbers--or if you just have a few volumes
you can set volume number manually in each book.

You can include the volume number where ever you want--such as x-refs, table
titles, figure captions--by entering the volume code. (The same applies to
the chapter number and the chapnum code.)

Volume        <$volnum> [AAAA]
Chapter       H:<$chapnum> [AAAA] 
	       (technically, the "H:" is not necessary in the Chapter style,
but I like to keep the 
	       chapter and heading number formatting consistent.)
H1*              H:<$chapnum>.<n+> [AAAA]
H2                H:<$chapnum>.<n>.<n+> [AAAA]
H3                H:<$chapnum>.<n>.<n>.<n+> [AAAA]

*You have your first H1 head as 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, etc. Usually, this would be
1.1, 2.1, 3.1, etc. as it is the first H1 tag. However, if you REALLY want
the first H1 to be 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, etc., you will need two styles:
    First use: H:<$chapnum>.<n=0> or H:<$chapnum>.<n>
    Following uses: H:<$chapnum>.<n+>
(Note: this can be handled automatically in the EDD if document is
structured.)

The <n> and <n+> process continues for as many headings as you want. The
book files needs the numbering set to your preference. (The "H:" letter is
flexible but should have the same letter on all the headings.) Here is a
reference PDF for setting up book numbering and pagination:

Other Notes:
Some people like to put all the place holders in each style and to set the
starting point as zero. It would look like this:
Chapter       H:<$chapnum>< =0>< =0>< =0> [AAAA]
H1*              H:<$chapnum>.<n+>< >< > [AAAA]
In my experience, both are these are unnecessary for typical Frame books.
