- No, you do not have to insert the chapters manually. In the book file,
- Go to each section and use Set Up File (under the File heading in the
- book). This will allow you to restart page numbering, paragraph numbering
- and also allow you to include prefix and suffixes to the page numbering in
- generated files.
-
- So for section 2, you would place "2-" in the prefix.
