Re: [docbook-apps] Set with 2 Books: Wrong Page Numbering on the 2nd Book?

["Bob Stayton" <bobs@sagehill.net>]

It is a bug in the template named initial.page.number in fo/pagesetup.xsl.
That template counts preceding chapters to determine the starting number,
but fails to take into account preceding chapters in a preceding book.  Can
you please file a bug report on the DocBook SourceForge project page?

Thanks.

(21-Sep-2005 12:26, with no customization layer) and building the PDF with
XEP (4.4 build 20050822), I discovered the following page numbering:
