Hi samir,

• Outline Enter the name of the highest-level paragraph in an outline hierarchy here. The outline hierarchy is created by assigning this paragraph to all outline paragraphs.

• Outline level Enter the level in the outline hierarchy. The outline levels of the paragraphs are numbered upwards from 1; the highest outline level therefore has the outline number 1.

• Number margin Specify the space between numbering and window border. Note that your numbering may extend into the text area of the paragraph if the difference between the left margin and the number margin is not great enough to hold the numbering characters.

• Left/right delimiter Specify the character that precedes or follows the numbering.

• Number chaining Specify whether you want the paragraph numbering of the paragraph to be preceded by the numbering of all higher paragraphs in the hierarchy. ...with number chaining ...without number chaining 3. 3. 3.1 1. 3.2 2. 3.2.1 1.

• Character string Specify the numbering format. The numbering can be assigned a different font or character format to the rest of the paragraph.

• Numbering type ARABIC Arabic numerals: 1, 2, 3. CHAR Fixed character: letter or numeral, entered in the field LETTER Letters: A-Z ROMAN Roman numerals: I, II, III, IV Depending upon the numbering type that you select, the following attributes may also apply:

• Fixed character Define the fixed character to be used for numbering. You should only make an entry in the field Fixed character if you have specified CHAR as the numbering type. Fixed characters include + - and o .

• Output length Enter the number of characters for Arabic numerals.

• Upper case Specify for letters or Roman numerals.
