and paragraphs are numbered in a book. In a book file, the numbering
styles and starting numbers for pages and chapters are determined
by each document’s settings in the Numbering &amp; Section Options
dialog box. You can open this dialog box by choosing Layout&#160;&gt; Numbering
&amp; Section Options in the document or by choosing Document Numbering
Options in the Book panel menu.</p>
<p>For numbered paragraphs (such
as lists of figures), numbering is determined by the numbered list
style definition contained by the paragraph style. </p>
<p>The page
range appears beside each document name in the Book panel. By default,
InDesign updates page and section numbering in the Book panel when you
add or remove pages in booked documents, or when you make changes
to the book file, such as reordering, adding, or removing documents.
If you turn off the setting to automatically update page and section
numbers, you can update numbering in a book manually.</p>
<p>If a
document is missing or cannot be opened, the page range is shown
as “?” from the place where the missing document should be to the
end of the book, indicating that the true page range is unknown.
Remove or replace the missing document before you update numbering.
If the In Use icon&#160;<img src="images/P_Lock_Sm_N_inuse.png" /> appears,
someone using a different computer has opened the document in a
managed workflow; the person must close the document before you
can update numbering.</p>

book, see <a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/vid0217" target="_blank">www.adobe.com/go/vid0217</a>.</p>
