Title: RE: [xacml-editors] Problem with numbering of sections

Anne - After upgrading my version of Word, I experienced a great deal of difficulty to get the section numbering to (appear to) work properly.  I think it is entirely possible that there is something pathological about the formatting that does not show up when rendered in any version of Word.  But, I am at a loss to know what to do about it.  Will it be OK if (once we are finished) we make the .pdf the official version (assuming of course, that it has rendered the section numbering properly)?  It means that in the interim you'll have to assume that WYSINWYG.  All the best.  Tim.

Hi Anne,

Just to confirm:  the section numbers show up properly for me in Word (note that Tim and I are using different versions of Word).

Carlisle.

When I render Tim's 11/29/02 draft using StarOffice 6.0,
- Section 7 and all its sub-sections are shown as Section 13,
  13.1, etc.
- Section 8 is shown as Section 14, but its sub-sections are
  correctly numbered 8.1, etc.
- Section 9 is correctly numbered, indicating that StarOffice was
  able to detect that two sections occurred between 6 and 9, even
  though it displayed the numbers incorrectly.

When I render Simon's 12/3/02 draft using StarOffice 6.0,
- Section 5 and all its sub-sections are shown as Section 1, 1.1,
  etc.
- Section 6 and all its sub-sections are shown as Section 2, 2.1,
  etc.
- Still same problems with 7 and 8 as in Tim's draft

This MAY be a bug in StarOffice, but there may be a problem in
the way the sections are formatted that does not show up in MS
Word.  Could you verify that at least the problems do not show up
in MS Word?  Then, if you can check the formatting of the section
numbers to see if there is anything irregular that may be
confusing StarOffice, I would appreciate it.

Anne
