    How do you insert the arabic numbers?… You could insert them manually though, right?

    No need to add them manually.

    Yah, but that wouldn't work in combination with regular (pardon the expression) numbers going the opposite way, would it?

    I'd do it by hand for up to a handful of pages, but for >500, I'd write a script. Scripts are great at counting numbers.

    I had some books typeset in India. They just deleted all the automatic running heads I had set up and manually typed them in.

    A similar experience here — footnotes, created by hand the old fashioned way: separate frames, a line, main text frame shortened by hand … and all of that with InDesign CS3…

    Me, I work for a small publishing cy. in The Netherlands, just making books. Done that the past 25-odd years, so yeah, I know my way around a few DTP packages. I worked for three different publishers in the past, all firmly based into hard core linguistics — it tends to rub off, so now I can read Greek & Cyrillic (but don't ask me to read out aloud).

    When not working, I do a little research on whatever I fancy at the moment — fonts, document types, games, science. I guess the link here is “computer” — if it can be done on a computer, I'm game.
