Quick question... I also have to do paragraph numbering replacement for 4 paragraphs in only 2 files of the book. (We have a $docid$ string in the numbering formats to be replaced with the 5-digit generated docid). Do you recommend converting those 2 files to MIF and doing a simple search/replace for $docid$ or is it better to use the same MIF template (used for the variables) to update the paragraphs? If the MIF template is better, do I need to include all of the Pgf lines or just: <PgfCatalog <Pgf <PgfTag `FeatureNumber'> <PgfNumFormat `1:Feature F$docid$-<n\>.<n+\>'> > # end of Pgf Also, regarding converting the MIF template to FM before importing formats; is there a reason it may be better to do so (less potential for errors)? Thanks again!
