Edit Numbering Style dialog box
To control how the numbers are styled, choose an option from the Character Style
drop-down menu. Choose Inherit from Paragraph to use the paragraph's character
formatting for the numbers, or choose a character style sheet to use that character
style sheet's formatting.
Choose a number format from the Format drop-down menu.
If you want prefix or suffix characters around the number, enter them in the Prefix
and Suffix fields.
If you are inheriting the numbers' formatting from the paragraph, you can change the
size of the numbers using the Size field.
The Outset value controls how far each number is from the paragraph. You can specify
this distance in Absolute units, or click Relative (in Ems) and specify the value in em
spaces. The Relative (in Ems) option may be preferable when you will be using the
numbering style with different-sized text.
Numbering alignment and offset works the same way bullet alignment and offset
works. For more information, see "Working with bullet styles."
You can apply a numbering style in three ways:
• Choose the numbering style's name from the •/123 menu in the Paragraph/Paragraph
Attributes tab of the Measurements palette. If you do it this way, the numbers are
positioned to the left of the paragraph's first line indent by its Outset value.
• Choose an outline style that uses the numbering style from the •/123 menu in the
Paragraph/Paragraph Attributes tab of the Measurements palette. If you do it this
way, the numbers' positions are controlled by the outline style. For more information,
see "Working with outline styles."
• Associate the numbering style with a paragraph style sheet, then apply that style sheet
to the text. For more information, see "Bullets, numbering, outlines, and style sheets."
To change the starting number of a paragraph:
• (Windows only): Choose Style > Formats, check Restart Numbering, and enter a
starting number in the Start At field.
