I know that legal publishers often like line numbers because it helps the lawyers to accurately cite lines of argument (excuse the pun), but I think in those texts they usually go for showing something like every fifth line, not every line. In which case, I'd set the line numbers up on the master pages (assuming a constant baseline grid). But, Kyle, I agree with Joel - you shouldn't expect FM to do everything that Word does and vice versa. And, considering that you're submitting this for publication, I would suggest submitting it in something other than FM anyway. Publishers usually prefer to receive contributions as common word processor files. Are you sure they're happy getting this as a FM file?
