Jean,
I'm not sure it is possible. DBT is seeing the continuation letter as an
actual numbered/lettered page number and isn't differentiating between the 2
situations. For now, you will spend more time trying to find a solution than
what it's worth. I recommend you manually insert the next continuation page
number(s) in the correct location, once you know where the braille page
breaks occur. Hopefully you won't need to do this more than once or twice.
If the next braille page starts mid-paragraph, you will need to do another
work around, as right now there's a glitch and you won't get the correct
runover. You have 2 options.
1) Press Enter where the new braille page begins and then insert the
Textbook Reference Page Number as the next continuation number and then
format the rest of the paragraph for using the correct runover.
2) At the point of the new braille page break, [[*l*]][[*run*]] put a DBT
"Soft Return" immediately after the embedded page number. The trick is to
make sure the Soft Return is not caught in the embedded style or you will
still end up in trouble. It's probably easiest to put in the print number,
Soft Return (DBT Codes, Soft Return), all with no spaces, and then go back
and apply the Embedded Textbook Reference Page Number to the number, to make
sure it's only the number that's marked in the Embedded page number style.
So d29 would look like this
d29[[*l*]][[*run*]]

George,
The [pg] code and parameters isn't doing the trick. At least I can't get it
to work.

Hi Jean,
Do I assume you are doing all this is the one file?
If so, to change JUST the prefix, but keep numbering sequential, use the
Code [pg~X] where X is the prefix.
See Help: Codes, Styles & Templates: Codes: then expand the Page Numbering
section, which contains a number of topics on the subject.
George.

I've been struggling all day with this one and hope someone knows how to do
this. I have a textbook where it is necessary to end a volume in the middle
of a print page because that's the logical place to do it. In the next
volume, I'm having trouble getting my print page numbers right. For example,
the first page in volume 2 needs to be something like c29. I can set that as
a reference page number, but then I want the next print page to be d29, etc.
I've experimented with the continuation page number and set that to d29.
That works except there is then a leading letter "a"
as in ad29. I tried suppressing the letter prefix with the svles0:1 code,
but that then cancelled the continuation page number.
Is there any way to resume a print page sequence at the start of a volume an
have the letters continue from a set point? Any solutions? Once I get to a
normal number, things are obviously fine.
Jean
Anyone can do any amount of work provided it isn't the work he/she is
supposed to be doing.
