Page numbers in RTF document

[EA_Nj]

EA does not include page numbers in the documents that it generates. This seems like a minor change.  It would tremendously help to communicate with business users if you would include page numbers in all rtf documentation coming out of EA.

Thanks

Hi,

Our general recommendation in working with RTF is to create a Word Document that conforms to your company standards or to your desired look and feel - with title page, table of contents, table of figures, headers, footers etc. You then link in one or more RTF files produced by EA in the order desired - make sure you link to the RTF file - rather than just 'inserting' it as is. Now you can regenerate the RTF at will - and in the Word Document, just update the linked contents to get any recent changes.

Using this approach you can customize heading styles, indentation, contents, page numbering and etc. quite easily.

I hope this helps,

geoff, I could not make this work with Word XP, if you link an rtf file to a word document, the word styles are not used even if the names match. The only way we could get the document to pick up the EA styles and allow them to be reformated was to insert the rtf into the doc file.

Forget that geoff, I just discovered what I was doing wrong
