Preps Page Numbering

[baggie]

Hello All

This might be obvious but does anyone have any idea why my Preps 5.1.5 on Mac OSX is suddenly displaying all the page numbering as letters when I am designing an impoisiton i.e. instead of seeing page 1,2,3,4 etc I see A,B,C,D etc.

any suggestions appreciated

not at work, so can't investigate for you on the spot, but it looks like a field in a dialogue box has been accidentally clicked. Prolly a choice between numbers/letters. Have a wander around in there. With PREPS' Byzantine interface, couldn't begin to guess where. Shall have a look when next in the chair. It'd be in Job Notes, I'm guessin'.
BTW, I think you're due for the free upgrade/download to 5.2.1. Shall double-check this too.

Hmmm...realised I misread your post. "Designing" an imposition. i.e.; at the stage of using the Numbering Tool? Thought you were at the stage of positioning page numbers to print outside the bleed area. Tried Preferences Trash/reset? Is there anything under the Help menu, or in the online Manual? Can't help till Monday, sorry.

If you can bother/are desperate enough, you could join/post, here:

be aware; getting on and signed up is sl-o-o-w...days/weeks. Might help for next time, though.
You could cruise their old posts, meantime.
