Mello Mrs. Swanson,

As far as my experience goes, it can be advantageous to have the numbering specification in the format and not hardcoded in the EDD.
This way, you only assign a format in the EDD. The advantage ist, that if you have documents that get translated into other languages, you only need to update the format ("Abbildung" instead of "Figure") and not the EDD. If you did it via the EDD, you�d need an EDD per language. Also, template based localization can also deal with the parapgraph language and language-dependent reference pages (such as index sorting a.s.o).

For tables, you can either have the table title as a separate "paragraph" (=defined as a "Container" in the EDD) or as a true Table Title (in the sense of the table dialog), when you define it as a "TableTitle" in the EDD.

Hope this helps.

With kind regards,
Franz.
