      I don't know how the option for “automatic page numbering” became “start on page 79” in fifth chapter of a 12 chapter book. It's particularily emabarrasing because this was supposed to be the Final print after many draft printings. Of course it messed up all the pages after that.

      So I'm here to ask if this sort of thing has happened to anyone else?

      Oh wait, is there a keyboard shortcut for that which I might have used without realizing it?

      Thanks for comments.

      Perhaps the document was added to a book panel with auto pagination turned on by accident… even if it's removed from the book panel later, it still remembers its page numbering. Oops!

      Well I admit that's an interesting idea , and thing to know, but the book panel has not been changed through four draft printings – I'm using it to keep my files organized. The only way to change the page numbering it to open Numbering and Sections – right?

      Perhaps a further clue is that it was 20 pages off, should have been page 59. But I think that's a red herring. Somehow the instructions got changed about the page numbering and I can't imagine how I could have done it.
